Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

This is ccivlcid/VibeHarness's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on VibeHarness itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything VibeHarness configures →

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

dev-environment-setup 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

Setup — Dev Environment

Guide non-developers through installing necessary tools. All instructions must be completable via copy-paste.

Node.js Installation

  1. Go to https://nodejs.org
  2. Click the green button (LTS) to download
  3. Run the installer
  4. Close and reopen the terminal after installation

Python Installation

  1. Go to https://www.python.org/downloads/
  2. Click the yellow "Download Python" button
  3. Windows: CHECK the "Add Python to PATH" checkbox at the bottom
  4. Run the installer
  5. Close and reopen the terminal after installation

Git Installation

  • Mac: Run xcode-select --install in terminal
  • Windows: Download from https://git-scm.com and install

How to Open Terminal

  • Mac: Press Command + Space, type "Terminal", click the app
  • Windows: Press the Windows key, type "cmd" or "Command Prompt", click it

Verify Installation

After installing a tool, always run the verification command:

node --version    # Node.js
python --version  # Python
git --version     # Git

If a version number appears, it worked.

Guidance Principles

  • List every step with numbers (1, 2, 3...)
  • Provide commands that can be completed via copy-paste
  • Tell them what to expect ("if you see a number, it worked")
  • Install one tool at a time
  • Always remind to close and reopen the terminal after installation
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.
