SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Streamlines the creation and ongoing maintenance of AGENTS.md documents across services and components by standardizing scope, hierarchy, and skill references.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Template-driven AGENTS.md generation for component and service levels.
  • Scoped skill references managed per component/service to control agent context.
  • Hierarchical context rules to resolve overlap between root, component, and service levels.
  • Use Case: When onboarding a new service, generate an AGENTS.md that defines its scope and required skills.

Quick Start

Create an AGENTS.md for a new service or component using the supplied templates.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create and maintain AGENTS.md files for multiple services?

AGENTS.md files are created and maintained using template-driven generation that standardizes scope, hierarchy, and scoped skill references across services. This streamlines ongoing document maintenance by structuring sections like Overview, Architecture, and Service Map.

What is the best way to define subagent context boundaries across components?

Defining subagent context boundaries is best handled through hierarchical context rules in AGENTS.md that resolve overlap between root, component, and service levels. Scoped skill references manage agent context per component to control boundaries precisely.

How do I generate an AGENTS.md when onboarding a new service?

To generate an AGENTS.md when onboarding a new service, apply supplied templates that define the service scope and required skills. This produces a structured document with sections for Architecture, Shared Conventions, Development Workflow, and a Skills Reference.

Can I manage scoped skill references per component with AGENTS.md?

Yes, scoped skill references can be managed per component within AGENTS.md to control agent context. This ensures each service or component level only references the specific skills required for its operational scope.

Does AGENTS.md hierarchy resolve overlap between root and service levels?

Yes, AGENTS.md hierarchy resolves overlap between root, component, and service levels using hierarchical context rules. This structure ensures scoped skills and shared conventions apply correctly at each distinct architectural layer without conflict.

What sections should I include in an AGENTS.md document?

An AGENTS.md document should include structured sections for Overview, Architecture, Service Map, Shared Conventions, Communication Patterns, Development Workflow, and a Skills Reference. These sections provide comprehensive context for agents operating within defined service boundaries.
