Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AGENTS.md

This file provides guidance to Codex and other coding agents working in this
repository. It is adapted from `CLAUDE.md`; keep both files aligned when project
norms change.

For deeper historical context, Claude-provider details, or guidance not covered
here, consult `CLAUDE.md`. For Codex behavior, `AGENTS.md` is authoritative when
the two files differ.

## Project Overview

Koan is an autonomous background agent that uses idle CLI/API quota to work on
local projects. It runs as a continuous loop, pulls missions from shared files,
executes them through configured CLI providers, and communicates progress via
Telegram.

Core philosophy: "The agent proposes. The human decides." Do not introduce
unsupervised code modification behavior unless explicitly requested.

When existing docs or code mention Claude, treat that as Koan's Claude provider
or legacy Claude Code workflow unless the task explicitly asks to use Claude
Code.

## Documentation First

- `docs/` and `specs/` are each independent OKF v0.1 knowledge bundles — see
  `docs/SPEC.md` for the normative spec and `docs/SCHEMA.md` / `specs/SCHEMA.md`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add anantys-oss/koan/AGENTS.md@sha256:1074afff5f8d873d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260709.846eefd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
