Instructions
23/27Whether the repo tells an agent how to behave before it starts guessing. Losing marks on agent instruction file.Setup
13/20Whether an agent can install the project and get it running without a human. Losing marks on deterministic install and environment config.Verification loop
10/25Whether an agent can check its own work. This is the category that most decides whether agent output is trustworthy. Losing marks on tests exist and test command is discoverable.Context economy
15/20Whether the repo fits in a context window, or fights it. Losing marks on file sizes fit in context and repository weight.Navigability
10/10How quickly anything new can orient itself. Full marks.
Higher is better. Accent marks what is costing you most.
Fix these first
01
Test command is discoverable
Add a `test` script or a `test` target that runs the whole suite with no arguments. The convention is the interface — an agent tries `npm test` and `make test` before it tries reading your CI config.
02
Deterministic install
Commit the lockfile your package manager generates. Without it, an agent's install and your install are different builds, and 'works on my machine' becomes unfalsifiable.
03
Agent instruction file
Rename or symlink to AGENTS.md so tools other than one vendor's can read it. Keeping Copilot instructions alongside it costs nothing.
The full marking
Every deduction below names the file or setting it came from.
Instructions 23/27 A
Whether the repo tells an agent how to behave before it starts guessing.
✗Agent instruction file
8/12
Copilot instructions is present, but not the vendor-neutral AGENTS.md.
Rename or symlink to AGENTS.md so tools other than one vendor's can read it. Keeping Copilot instructions alongside it costs nothing.
✓Instruction quality
12/12
Specific enough that an agent can act on it.
6,375 characters, a workable length
names the actual commands to run
uses headings, so an agent can skim it
includes copyable code blocks
✓README as an entry point
3/3
README has a clear getting-started section.
Setup 13/20 B
Whether an agent can install the project and get it running without a human.
✗Deterministic install
3/6
Only requirements.txt, which pins loosely at best.
Commit the lockfile your package manager generates. Without it, an agent's install and your install are different builds, and 'works on my machine' becomes unfalsifiable.
✓Discoverable commands
6/6
Commands are declared where an agent will look for them.
scripts/ directory
✗Environment config
2/4
Env vars are mentioned in the README but there's no example file to copy.
Add a .env.example listing every variable with a safe placeholder value. It's the cheapest possible fix and it unblocks the whole first run.
✗Pinned runtime version
0/2
No pinned runtime version.
Add a .nvmrc, .python-version, or equivalent so the agent's toolchain matches yours.
✓Reproducible environment
2/2
docker-compose.yml gives a known-good environment.
Verification loop 10/25 C
Whether an agent can check its own work. This is the category that most decides whether agent output is trustworthy.
✗Tests exist
6/8
19 test files against 316 source files.
e.g. etc/testing/test_all.py, etc/testing/test_api.py, etc/testing/test_async.py
✗Test command is discoverable
0/7
There's no obvious way to run the tests. Even if tests exist, an agent won't reliably find the entry point.
Add a `test` script or a `test` target that runs the whole suite with no arguments. The convention is the interface — an agent tries `npm test` and `make test` before it tries reading your CI config.
✓Continuous integration
4/4
5 GitHub Actions workflows define what "passing" means.
✗Lint and format rules
0/3
No linter or formatter config. Style is tribal knowledge, so agent output will drift from yours.
A formatter config is the cheapest way to stop reviewing whitespace in agent diffs. It moves style from opinion to a command.
✗Static type checking
0/3
No static type checking.
A type checker gives an agent an error message instead of a runtime surprise. It's the second-fastest feedback loop after the compiler.
Context economy 15/20 B+
Whether the repo fits in a context window, or fights it.
✓No committed build output
6/6
No generated directories committed.
✓.gitignore hygiene
3/3
.gitignore covers 19 patterns.
✗File sizes fit in context
4/6
1 source file is over 100KB.
A single file that fills the context window forces an agent to work from fragments, and it will confidently edit code it never saw. Splitting the worst offenders pays for itself immediately.
g4f/Provider/needs_auth/BlackboxPro.py — 275KB
✗Repository weight
2/5
About 203MB checked out. Large enough that cloning and searching are both slow.
Large binaries and vendored trees slow every operation an agent performs. Git LFS or a separate assets repo keeps the working tree navigable.
Here is your AGENTS.md
Drafted from what is actually in this repository: the install
command from your lockfile, the commands you already declare, your real directory layout. Anything
marked TODO needs a person. Save it at the root as AGENTS.md.
# AGENTS.md The official gpt4free repository | various collection of powerful language models | opus 4.6 gpt 5.3 kimi 2.5 deepseek v3.2 gemini 3 ## Setup ``` pip install -r requirements.txt ``` ## Commands ``` # TODO: nothing declares a build or test command, so an agent has to guess. # This is the single most valuable section of this file. Fill it in. ``` ## Layout - `g4f/` 222 source files - `etc/` 64 source files - `g4f-go/` 15 source files - `scripts/` 6 source files - `projects/` 5 source files - `docker/` 2 source files ## Conventions - Tests live alongside the code they cover, following `etc/testing/test_all.py`. - CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/build-packages.yml`, and keep it green. - TODO: add the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong here. ## Gotchas - `g4f/Provider/needs_auth/BlackboxPro.py` is 275KB. It will not fit comfortably in context, so read it in parts. - No lockfile is committed, so an install here may not match what CI produced. --- Drafted by agentreadme.com from what is in this repository. Everything marked TODO needs a human. Check it in as AGENTS.md at the root.

Think this mark is wrong?
Every deduction above names the file it came from, so this can be settled by looking. If a check missed something, that is a rule worth fixing.
