AGENTS.md agentsB
AGENTS.md is agent-read markdown (agents) from coldteadotai/abide.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Abide — Agent Instructions Hard rules for anyone (human or agent) working in this repo. Read fully before writing code. ## Hard requirements - **The hook must never break the agent.** Every hook path exits 0, bounds its own time, and writes nothing to stdout but the JSON the host expects. A hook that hangs, crashes or chatters takes the user's whole coding session with it. This outranks every other goal in this repo: a check that did not run is a missed violation, and a check that wedged the agent is a bug report. - **No secrets in this repo, ever.** The API key is read from the environment, from `.env.local` or `.env` at the repo root, or from `~/.abide/.env`. `abide login` writes it, owner-only, to `~/.abide/.env` or the repo's `.env.local`, the only two files abide may ever write a key to, and changes nothing else in them. Never accept it as a flag — a flag lands in shell history and in CI logs — and never log it. - **Verify before claiming done**: tests green, `pnpm build` + typecheck clean, and the end-to-end path exercised against live Jev with latency measured. A rule checker that has never checked a real diff is not done. …
