SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? AGENTS.md files often become stale, incomplete, or missing key commands, leaving AI coding agents without the project context they need to work effectively. This Skill systematically finds every AGENTS.md file in a repository, grades its quality, and applies targeted improvements after your approval. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Repository-wide discovery: Locates project root, package-level, local override, and global AGENTS.md files, including monorepo setups. - Quality scoring and reporting: Grades each file A-F across criteria like commands, architecture clarity, currency, and actionability, then outputs a structured quality report before any changes. - Targeted updates with diffs: Proposes minimal, high-value additions (missing build commands, gotchas, environment setup) shown as diffs, and applies them only after user confirmation. - Use Case: After a major refactor, run an audit to find that your root AGENTS.md still references an old test command and is missing the new environment variable setup, then apply the suggested fixes in one pass. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to audit all AGENTS.md files in this repository, produce a quality report, and suggest improvements.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit AGENTS.md files in my repository?

Run the audit workflow, which finds all AGENTS.md files using a shell search across root, package, and global locations. Each file is scored against quality criteria and compiled into a report before any changes are proposed.

What makes a good AGENTS.md file for AI coding agents?

A good AGENTS.md is concise, human-readable, and contains copy-paste-ready commands for build, test, and dev workflows. It should document architecture, non-obvious gotchas, environment setup, and project-specific conventions rather than generic advice.

Does this work with monorepo AGENTS.md setups?

Yes, the discovery phase finds AGENTS.md files in nested package directories such as packages/*/AGENTS.md. Coding agents auto-discover these files in parent directories, so per-package context works automatically in monorepos.

Will the skill modify my AGENTS.md files automatically?

No, it always outputs a quality report first and asks for confirmation before editing. Proposed changes are shown as diffs with explanations, and updates are applied only after you approve them.

What is the difference between AGENTS.md and .Codex.local.md?

AGENTS.md at the project root is checked into git and shared with the team, while .Codex.local.md holds personal local settings that should be gitignored. Global user-wide defaults belong in ~/.Codex/AGENTS.md.
