OSOP Agent Rules

OSOP Agent Rules is an open-source orchestration harness and rule repository developed by Archie0125 (osop.ai) designed to standardize agent behavior, session logging, and telemetry across multiple AI coding assistants. Day-to-day, the repository provides pre-built rule files and Claude skills structured around the OSOP Core specification (v2.0.0). These rules configure AI agents across 16 different platforms—including CLI tools like Aider and Cline, IDE extensions like Continue.dev and GitHub Copilot, and cloud assistants like Devin. Once injected into a tool's configuration directory, they govern prompt behaviors, telemetry emission, risk scoring, and session logging using tools like the `osop view` CLI. Rather than functioning as a standalone execution engine, OSOP Agent Rules acts as a standardized governance layer across heterogeneous agent tooling. It ensures uniform review processes, risk analysis, and structured logging regardless of whether an engineer runs an autonomous CLI loop or an IDE-integrated chat agent. The project is available as an open-source repository on GitHub with active updates supporting both local and API-driven coding harnesses.

Key features

  • Multi-Agent Configuration Suite — Provides drop-in configuration and rule definitions for 16 agent environments including Aider, Continue.dev, Cline, Codex, Copilot, Roo Code, and Devin. - OSOP Core v2.0.0 Support — Standardizes agent interaction models and session telemetry around a unified 4-type core structure. - Claude Skills Integration — Includes dedicated skills such as osop-log, osop-report, and osop-review for automated analysis and inspection. - Built-in Risk Scoring — Implements structured evaluation rules to quantify and review risks associated with automated agent code modifications. - CLI Reporting Integration — Interfaces natively with the osop view CLI utility to generate human-readable session reports without heavy external dependencies.

Use cases

Use Case: Cross-Platform Rule Standardization Teams using diverse AI tools across their developer base (e.g., some engineers on Aider, others on Cline or Copilot) deploy OSOP Agent Rules to maintain uniform guidelines, constraints, and prompt structures across every environment.

Use Case: Agent Session Telemetry and Auditing Platform engineers configure AI agents to log actions using the OSOP Core specification, allowing automated parsing and auditing of agent operations via the osop view CLI.

Use Case: Automated Agent Code Review Developers leverage the osop-review skill within Claude-compatible environments to compute standardized risk scores before accepting changes proposed by autonomous agents.

Who it is for

OSOP Agent Rules is built for engineering teams, platform developers, and power users who operate multiple AI coding agents and need consistent behavior, logging, and risk evaluation across their toolchain. It is not intended for users seeking a standalone coding agent binary or self-contained IDE replacement.

Install guide

Installation Clone the repository directly from GitHub to access rule profiles for each supported agent environment: bash git clone https://github.com/Archie0125/osop-agent-rules.git cd osop-agent-rules (Note: You can copy specific agent directories to your local agent configuration paths, such as .aider.conf.yml, .cursorrules, or Cline prompt folders).

First Run Copy the target rule set to your project root or tool configuration folder. For example, for Aider or Cline setups: bash # Example: Symlink or copy rules into your project directory cp osop-agent-rules/aider/.aider.conf.yml ./ Ensure that any auxiliary CLI tools (such as osop view) are available in your path if using the logging integration.

Example Session After linking the rule definitions into your agent setup, initiate an agent session. The agent will follow the OSOP Core protocols for session handling: bash # Run your configured agent (e.g., Aider) aider --message "Refactor auth middleware according to OSOP Core logging rules" # Inspect generated session summaries osop view --latest
