agentsmd-scaffold

agentsmd-scaffold is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from majiayu000/spellbook. It costs 73 tokens per session (1,346 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating repository-specific AGENTS.md instruction files, which tell coding agents how to work in a code repository and its folders.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a repository, plan scoped instruction files, draft their contents, and validate commands before applying changes.
Why use it?
It bases the instructions on the repository's actual structure and commands, reducing vague or misplaced guidance for agents.

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

agentsmd-scaffold 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/scan_repo_context.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 152 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md Scaffold

Use this skill to generate a small, evidence-backed AGENTS.md stack for a repository. The output may be a plan, exact proposed file contents, or applied files when the user explicitly asks to write them.

This skill is for instruction scaffolding. Use repo-agent-context-audit first when the user only asks whether the repo's agent context is healthy.

Operating Contract

Default to a scoped plan before editing. Only write or modify AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, WARP.md, hooks, settings, or generated docs when the user has explicitly asked to apply the scaffold.

Direct actions:

  • Run read-only discovery, scanner commands, and repo command inspection.
  • Produce a scoped AGENTS.md plan with evidence and validation commands.
  • Draft exact file contents when the user asks for proposed text.

Escalate before:

  • Creating or editing high-context files when the user only asked for an audit.
  • Rewriting existing AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or WARP.md instead of adding a short pointer or scoped complement.
  • Batch-normalizing multiple repositories.

Evidence-backed pushback:

  • Challenge new scoped files when the directory has no distinct local rules.
  • Challenge guessed commands, ownership, or generated-file rules unless repo evidence supports them.

Feedback loop:

  • Promote repeated false starts into references/scaffold-agents.md, scanner signals, or eval prompts.

Workflow

1. Discover Existing Context

Run the scanner from this skill directory when possible:

python3 scripts/scan_repo_context.py <repo-root>
python3 scripts/scan_repo_context.py <repo-root> --json

Then inspect the files that matter:

  • existing AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, WARP.md, .claude/instructions.md, and .github/copilot-instructions.md
  • README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, package manifests, Makefiles, CI workflows, and documented test commands
  • generated files and their generators
  • high-risk directories such as migrations, deploy scripts, auth, secrets, payments, registry metadata, generated clients, and production operations

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.
