SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Aligns AI agent rules across CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md to ensure cross-agent discoverability and consistency.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Checks for existing CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md, renames CLAUDE.md to AGENTS.md when needed, and creates symlinks so different agents can locate the same rules.
  • Creates interoperable access by symlinking CLAUDE.md and AGENT.md to AGENTS.md to support multiple agent views.
  • Improves repository onboarding for AI agent collaboration by standardizing where rules are stored and read.

Quick Start

Run the project-initialization process to ensure AGENTS.md contains the authoritative rules and create symlinks so CLAUDE.md and AGENT.md point to AGENTS.md.

Frequently Asked Questions about project-initialization

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sync CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files for AI agent rules in my repository?▼

Symlinking AI agent rules centralizes configuration by pointing CLAUDE.md and AGENT.md to AGENTS.md, ensuring all agents read identical instructions without maintaining duplicate files across the repository.

What happens to existing CLAUDE.md files when initializing AI agent rules?▼

During initialization, existing CLAUDE.md files are renamed to AGENTS.md to serve as the single source of truth, and symlinks are created so CLAUDE.md and AGENT.md reference AGENTS.md automatically.

When do I need to align AI agent rules across multiple agent configuration files?▼

You need to align AI agent rules when CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md are missing or out of sync, ensuring multiple agents can discover and follow consistent repository rules during collaboration.

Can I use symlinks to manage AI agent rules across different agent platforms?▼

Yes, symlinks enable cross-platform AI agent rule management by linking CLAUDE.md and AGENT.md to AGENTS.md, allowing different agents to locate the same centralized rules without duplication.

Why does my repository need both CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md for AI agent onboarding?▼

Maintaining both CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md via symlinks standardizes where AI agents read repository rules, improving onboarding consistency and ensuring all agents access identical configuration instructions.
