A set of repository-specific instructions for developing an open-source Next.js web application. Next.js is a framework for building web applications with JavaScript or TypeScript.

Guiding work on the Agentic OS Console, including its code, user-facing text, comments, search approach, feature boundaries, and repository instructions.

It tells coding assistants which project rules, wording choices, architecture constraints, and development practices to follow before changing the code.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00226	$0.00226
Opus 5.5	$0.00090	$0.00090
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00045	$0.00045
Haiku 4.5	$0.00023	$0.00023

Security

Grade A, and why

cursorrules scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 2mo 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Read AGENTS.md first. It has the full developer-facing instructions for this Next.js codebase.

This repo is the open-source Agentic OS Console — a Next.js 15 web app that runs locally and talks to Hermes Agent. Audience for the product itself is solo founders; this file is for AI assistants helping develop the codebase.

Strict voice rules across all code, copy, comments, and skill files:

USE: leverage, own, compete, coordination overhead, second brain, pipeline, runway
AVOID: productivity, efficient, automate, seamless, AI workforce, AI company, founding cohort, em-dash abuse, hedging language

Don't:

Add a chat surface to the Next.js app (Hermes already has chat)
Use paid search APIs (Tavily, Perplexity, Bing) — use lib/search.ts (ddgr → gogcli → browser)
Add paid-tier feature flags or upsell prompts
Push to git remote without user consent
Anthropomorphize with named character agents (persona system is user-customizable)

See AGENTS.md for full conventions.

Changes

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.
