code-standards

General rules for readable, consistent code, including naming, formatting, function size, comments, indentation, and control-flow structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when writing or reviewing code in any language or framework, especially before committing a change.
Why use it?
They reduce confusion and make code easier to review, maintain, and extend.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 A, and why

code-standards 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 2d 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

Global Code Standards

  • Follow consistent code formatting across the entire project.
  • Use meaningful variable and function names that explain their purpose.
  • Keep functions small and focused on a single responsibility.
  • Add meaningful comments for complex logic, but avoid obvious comments.
  • Remove debug code, commented-out code and console logs before committing.
  • Use proper indentation (spaces or tabs) consistently throughout the project.
  • Follow the language/framework's standard style guide.
  • Avoid deep nesting of conditionals and loops.
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.
