This establishes cross-agent infrastructure by creating canonical skill directories, discovery symlinks, and routing files like AGENTS.md and copilot-instructions.md for multi-platform compatibility.

What is the Agent Skills open standard for AI coding assistants?▼

The Agent Skills open standard is a compatibility framework that allows skills to function across different AI coding assistants like Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and GitHub Copilot. It standardizes skill infrastructure through canonical directories and routing files to streamline multi-agent workflows.

How do I set up a repository for multi-agent AI compatibility?▼

You set up multi-agent AI compatibility by running a migration to the Agent Skills open standard. This automates the creation of canonical skill directories, discovery symlinks, and necessary configuration files including AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and Copilot instructions.

Do I need to manually create AGENTS.md and copilot-instructions.md files for skill migration?▼

You do not need to manually create AGENTS.md and copilot-instructions.md files for skill migration. The cross-agent migration process automates the creation of these routing files, along with canonical skill directories and discovery symlinks, to ensure functionality across platforms.

Can I use my existing Claude Code skills with other AI agents without rewriting them?▼

You can use existing Claude Code skills with other AI agents without rewriting them by migrating to the Agent Skills open standard. This process adapts your skills and sets up the required infrastructure for OpenAI Codex and GitHub Copilot automatically.

What configuration files are required for cross-platform AI agent skill compatibility?▼

Cross-platform AI agent skill compatibility requires routing files like AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and copilot-instructions.md. These files, along with canonical skill directories and discovery symlinks, are generated to ensure skills function correctly across Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and GitHub Copilot.
