Orca-Orchestration AGENTS.md

Orca-Orchestration AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from ZinkLu/Orca-Orchestration. It costs 3,279 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for Orca-Orchestration, a system that builds and displays task DAGs. A DAG is a set of tasks connected in dependency order, and the file covers both the orchestration skill and its server-and-web viewer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing the Orca DAG viewer, changing its Express or React Flow parts, or updating instructions for creating orchestration task graphs.
Why use it?
It explains the repository layout, commands, and important behavior that may not be obvious from the code. This helps agents edit the published instructions or the separate server and web modules safely.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

Orca-Orchestration AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- `dist-npm/` — the staged npm package, rebuilt from scratch by `scripts/build-npm.mjs` (it `rm -rf`s the dir first). Never hand-edit; the `package.json` in there is generated.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 86 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Guidance for agents working in this repo (editing the viewer/tooling or the skill doc). For using the skill to build DAGs, read skill/SKILL.md and README.md instead. CLAUDE.md is a symlink to this file — edit here, don't replace the link.

Project shape

Two independent modules in one npm-workspaces repo (workspaces: [server, web]):

  • skill/SKILL.md — a published agent skill (frontmatter + prose). Teaches an external agent to build an Orca orchestration task DAG via the orca CLI. No code; edit it like a doc, keep frontmatter intact.
  • server/ + web/ — the orca-dag viewer: an Express API + React Flow SPA that visualizes a Run's DAG and runs a self-driven coordinator loop. Compiles to a single portable binary (dist/orca-dag).

This repo is a thin, heavily-commented wrapper over the orca CLI. Every Orca quirk is documented in server/src/orca.ts comments — read them before touching orchestration code.

Commands

npm install
npm run dev            # BOTH server (:8787) + web (:5173) via concurrently; vite proxies /api → :8787
npm run dev:server     # tsx watch src/index.ts (server only)
npm run dev:web        # vite (web only)
npm run build          # web only: tsc -b && vite build → web/dist
npm run build:binary   # web build → embed as base64 in server/src/generated/webAssets.ts → bun --compile → dist/orca-dag
npm run build:npm      # web build → esbuild the server → dist-npm/ (the publishable `orca-dag` package; Node only, no Bun)
npm start              # server (tsx) against web/dist on disk; needs `npm run build` first for UI
  • No lint, test, or typecheck scripts exist. Typecheck manually:
    • web: npm run build -w web (runs tsc -b first, fails fast on type errors)
    • server: npx tsc -p server/tsconfig.json --noEmit
  • build:binary requires bun on PATH (not declared as a dependency). Cross-compile with TARGET=bun-linux-x64 npm run build:binary.
  • Binary runtime env: PORT (8787), NO_OPEN=1 (skip browser), WORKSPACE_DIR (overrides active worktree), ORCA_WORKTREE (default active).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
