SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of a machine-specific AGENTS.local.md that captures host facts and system tool details needed by Claude Code to tailor behavior to the current environment.

Core Features & Use Cases

Gathers OS, architecture, hostname, and Linux distro details to populate the AGENTS.local.md.
Detects core system tools (zsh, tmux, nvim) and records versions and paths to support environment-aware behavior.
Produces a concise AGENTS.local.md in the repository root that codifies machine context for agent loading and future audits.

Quick Start

Run /agents-local-md --force from the repository root to regenerate AGENTS.local.md regardless of freshness.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate a machine-specific AGENTS.local.md for Claude Code auto-loading?▼

To generate a machine-specific AGENTS.local.md, run the command from your repository root to collect OS, architecture, hostname, and Linux distro details. This produces a concise context file enabling Claude Code to tailor behavior to your local environment.

What system tool details should I document for Claude Code environment auditing?▼

For Claude Code environment auditing, document versions and paths for core system tools including zsh, tmux, and nvim. Capturing these details alongside host facts allows agents to adjust operations based on available terminal configurations.

Does generating an AGENTS.local.md context file work on both macOS and Linux?▼

Yes, generating an AGENTS.local.md context file works on both macOS and Linux. The process detects the specific OS, architecture, and Linux distro data to ensure the generated host context accurately reflects your current machine characteristics for agent provisioning.

How do I force regenerate AGENTS.local.md in my repository root?▼

To force regenerate AGENTS.local.md regardless of freshness, run the generation command with the --force flag from the repository root. This overwrites the existing file with updated host facts and system tool versions for accurate machine context.

Why do I need to record zsh, tmux, and nvim versions for local coding environment provisioning?▼

Recording zsh, tmux, and nvim versions is necessary for local coding environment provisioning because it allows Claude Code to understand your terminal capabilities. This machine context helps agents avoid unsupported features and tailor commands to your specific setup.
