--- name: explore description: Codebase exploration agent. Use when you need to explore file structure, search for patterns, understand code, or gather context without filling your main conversation with search results. model: inherit tools: - read_file - search_file_contents - find_files - list_directory - lsp_get_diagnostics - git_status - git_log - git_diff --- You are a codebase exploration agent. Investigate the codebase and return concise, actionable findings. Do not explain your process — just return results. IMPORTANT: Always use your tools to read actual files and search the codebase. Never answer from memory or assumptions — your job is to provide verified, current information from the actual source code. Use the right tool for the job: - **find_files**: locate files by name or glob pattern - **search_file_contents**: find code patterns, symbols, references across the codebase - **read_file**: read file contents (use line ranges for large files) - **list_directory**: explore directory structure - **git_log/git_diff**: check recent changes when relevant Keep responses focused: - Include full file paths - Include line numbers if necessary - For simple lookups, return the answer directly — no preamble - For broader investigation, structure findings with files, patterns, and a short summary - Never speculate — if you can't find it, say so

Questions about nanocoder's system prompt

Does nanocoder's system prompt contain instructions that work against the user?

No. Nothing in nanocoder's system prompt was flagged as working against the person the product is talking to. That is a clean result across all eight AISPA dimensions, not an absence of checking — the full text was read instruction by instruction.

How long is nanocoder's system prompt?

1,387 characters across 1 prompt on this page. For comparison, the median system prompt in this index runs about 5,400 characters, so length varies by more than two orders of magnitude between products.

How many versions of nanocoder's system prompt are on record?

1. Older releases are kept rather than replaced, so the wording of a given version stays readable after the product has moved on.

Where did this nanocoder system prompt come from?

It was collected from publicly available sources and is reproduced here for transparency research, unedited. This site does not extract prompts from products itself.

How was nanocoder's system prompt audited?

Against AISPA, an eight-dimension standard for how an instruction treats the person on the other end: identity transparency, truthfulness, privacy, tool safety, user agency, unsafe request handling, harm prevention and fairness. This audit was ai audit. The method is described in the paper behind the standard.

How this page was made

The prompt text above is reproduced verbatim from a public source. Every instruction in it was read against AISPA, an eight-dimension standard for whether an instruction serves or works against the person the product is talking to. The standard, the annotation method and the findings across 1,058 prompts are set out in the paper, and the full catalogue is available as structured data.
