Learn about vigilant mode.

First release.

A minimal, drop-in system prompt for coding agents — Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Cursor, and any tool that reads AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md.

Two files. Ten rules. No fluff.

What's in v1.0.0

  • AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md — the Ten Commandments plus a short Repository Rules tail
  • README.md / README.ko.md — bilingual install guide and design notes
  • log/changelog-YYYY-MM-dd.md convention for recording decisions

Install

Pick the file your agent reads, drop it in, done:

Claude Code ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md or <repo>/CLAUDE.md
OpenAI Codex CLI ~/.codex/AGENTS.md
Google Gemini CLI ~/.gemini/AGENTS.md
OpenCode ~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md

The Ten Commandments

  1. Understand first
  2. Surface uncertainty
  3. Offer options
  4. Plan in small steps
  5. Keep changes surgical
  6. Choose simplicity
  7. Fix root causes
  8. Test before trusting
  9. Verify before done
  10. Protect the system
