SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Keeping AGENTS.md updated with accurate, project-specific configuration and common developer commands is manual and error-prone; this Skill automates detection and insertion of that top-level information to speed onboarding and standardize agent behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repository Analysis: Scans manifests and configuration files to detect language, package manager, build tools, CI workflows, and common scripts or make targets.
  • Interactive Clarification: Uses an AskUserQuestion step to collect a short project overview, preferred code language, and additional conventions before making edits.
  • Safe Partial Edits: Performs a constrained edit that only updates the top project-specific section of AGENTS.md while preserving extensions and downstream sections.
  • Use Case: Initialize or refresh project documentation for a newly cloned repository so agent orchestration files reflect the actual tech stack and commands.

Quick Start

Analyze the repository and update the top section of AGENTS.md with the detected tech stack, common commands, language settings, and recommended rule removals.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically generate AGENTS.md from a project's tech stack?

To generate AGENTS.md, this Skill scans package manifests and CI workflows to detect the project's tech stack, then interactively asks for clarifications before updating the top section with common development commands.

What is the best way to update AGENTS.md without overwriting existing extensions?

Updating AGENTS.md safely involves applying a constrained partial edit that only modifies the top project-specific section while preserving downstream extensions and configuration sections.

Does AGENTS.md auto-detection work with Python, Rust, and Go repositories?

Yes, AGENTS.md auto-detection works with Node, Python, Rust, Go, Makefile, Dockerfile, and GitHub Actions by scanning package files, scripts, and CI configs to identify the tech stack.

Can I customize the detected project configuration before AGENTS.md is updated?

Yes, you can customize the configuration because the Skill uses an interactive clarification step to collect a project overview, preferred code language, and additional conventions before making any edits.

Why does AGENTS.md initialization need an interactive clarification step?

AGENTS.md initialization needs an interactive clarification step to collect accurate project overviews and language preferences, ensuring the generated commands and configuration match actual development conventions.

What types of CI workflows and build files are supported for AGENTS.md repo setup?

Supported files for AGENTS.md repo setup include package manifests, build files, and CI workflows such as Makefile, Dockerfile, and GitHub Actions configurations across Node, Python, Rust, and Go.
