scaffold-rules

Scaffolding development rules for AI coding agents copies common rules into the canonical `.plaited/rules/` directory and creates symlinks for `.claude/rules` and `.cursor/rules` when those directories exist, ensuring standardized guidelines across projects.

Standardizing agent operating guidelines is achieved by invoking a scaffolding skill that seeds common coding standards, places them canonically, and updates `AGENTS.md` to surface rules for new agents or repositories quickly.

Yes, rules scaffolding supports both Claude and Cursor environments by creating symlinks in `.claude/rules` and `.cursor/rules` directories automatically when those specific directories are detected in the project.

Previewing rule scaffolding changes before applying them to your repository is done by running the command with the `--dry-run` flag, allowing you to verify the canonical rule placement and symlink creation beforehand.

Updating `AGENTS.md` when scaffolding AI development rules is necessary for onboarding and governance, as it surfaces the newly established rules for new agents or repositories to ensure standardized coding standards are visible.

Yes, you can use `bunx` to scaffold rules for AI coding agents by running `bunx @plaited/development-skills scaffold-rules`, which automates canonical rule placement, agent-specific symlink creation, and onboarding documentation updates.
