可直接放进 Codex 的简化指令：优先满足当前已验证需求的最简单设计，不为假设的未来需求增加抽象、依赖和基础设施；评论补充了简单性与模块边界的平衡。
本站仅展示 Tabbit 编辑摘要和必要节选；完整内容、上下文与最新版本请查看原始来源。
Prefer the simplest design and implementation that fully satisfies the current, demonstrated requirements.
Do not add abstractions, layers, configuration, extension points, dependencies, or infrastructure for hypothetical future needs. Introduce them only when concrete requirements or repeated patterns justify their cost.
Before adding code, consider whether the goal can be met by deleting, consolidating, or reusing existing code.
When multiple approaches are correct, choose the one with fewer concepts, moving parts, and maintenance obligations, unless evidence shows that a more complex approach is necessary.
Treat patterns and principles as tools, not goals. Do not apply SOLID, design patterns, or architectural boundaries in ways that make a small solution more complicated than the problem requires. 共享 排序方式： 评论区域 mindstuff8 • 18天前
I think you've missed something here that is super important and that is dealing with context.
I’ve seen vibe-coded projects become giant single-file apps because “keep it simple” was interpreted as “don’t create boundaries.” Then AI struggles because every change pulls too much unrelated code into context.
Modularity isn’t over-engineering.
The goal should be to create the simplest design that still preserves clear responsibilities and boundaries.

can someone tell me is this actually good

There’s nothing technically wrong with any of these rules as an agents.md set, but all this is simply guidance if you already inject similar rules elsewhere or have a lot of compaction it’s going to lose this like it would any nuance over time.
A lot of these prompts work fine in isolation because it’s good advice, doesn’t mean the agent won’t wander or get context poisoning from other parts of your harness

You have to tell it speciifcally to use Occam's razor. Otherwise, it may still over-engineer even if the instructions are in the AGENTS.md file.

Isn’t Occam’s razor most popularly used to refer to simple explanations being best? In principle, and in truth maybe it works. But I wonder if something much shorter like “Ruthlessly practice YAGNI” would be better

I hear ya, I think a lot of people have more of a self inflicted harness problem than just the model itself however. They installed 300 skills and 15 plugins that all repeat the same guidance in different flavors, or worse, they conflict, all from the 5.4 days and need to loosen up the guardrails first then look for this kind of tweak, because sol has not been an issue for me with over engineering like at all, I had some problems on launch with ultra mode but general sol seems very capable at medium/high OOTB and mostly on a clean setup too.
These are solid rules and Occam’s razor is definitely a good well known concept for an LLM to pick up on so I may throw those words into my plugin cuz I like it.

It's not.
It could have been a simple sentence. Mentioning occams razor doesn't do anything.

Just put karpathy rules in your AGENTS md, was enough for me

I use a multi dimensional epistemic analysis dual adversarial super review/verifier stage. I put all the eponymous laws in there with a bit of hydratation crawl on arxiv. This cause my workflow to loop forever. I once caught it authenticate into a system jusg to prove a point to the planning agent. So add a fail fast clause

not profitable for open ai if you’re on plan, it’s just a deficit and they would actually save by making it under-engineered
SlimyResearcher • 18天前
I found that simply adding it to AGENTS.md doesn't work, but when you tell it specifically to use Occam's razor and give it the instructions above, it does produce simpler designs.

So whats your alternative ? Terra? Luna? Sol medium?

You are correct people who build these agents in that way don’t understand they using the wrong model. Idk if it’s fomo or some syndrome that because it’s considered the highest marketed of something it’s just always the best and efficient that people force everything down it.
