FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a vendor-neutral .project scaffold for multiple AI tools?▼

To generate a vendor-neutral .project scaffold, run the builder to auto-create a PROJECT.md manifest and base instructions with optional context, resources, memory, tasks, and agents sections tailored to your repository.

What is a .project directory structure and when do I need one?▼

A .project directory structure standardizes AI project configuration across tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini. You need one when starting a new AI project or migrating an existing repo to ensure consistent collaboration.

Does the .project standard work with Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini?▼

The .project standard works with Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and Google Gemini by generating adapter-friendly templates and frontmatter-driven manifests that are compatible across these multiple tooling environments.

Can I include custom context, memory, and agent configurations in my .project scaffold?▼

You can include custom configurations by enabling optional sections for memory, resources, context, and agents during generation, producing YAML-compatible templates and ready-to-adapt scaffolds based on your project needs.

What's the best way to standardize AI project configuration across different coding assistants?▼

The best way to standardize AI project configuration is generating vendor-neutral .project structures with frontmatter-driven metadata, ensuring your repository uses adapter-friendly templates that work across multiple compatible tools.

Do I need any specific dependencies to create a .project manifest?▼

You do not need any specific dependencies to create a .project manifest; the builder operates independently to generate the PROJECT.md file and base instructions with optional sections for your repository.
