SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you create, audit, and manage AI coding agent instruction files without duplicating guidance across multiple tools or letting rules drift out of sync.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-tool instruction design: Covers AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Gemini CLI, Aider, and OpenCode.
  • Monorepo rule architecture: Supports layered instruction files, path-scoped overrides, and canonical source-of-truth patterns for large repositories.
  • Rule quality and migration: Explains what to include, what to exclude, how to keep instructions concise, and how to migrate between agent formats safely.
  • Use Case: A platform team can use this Skill to standardize one shared instruction strategy across a monorepo while keeping tool-specific bridges accurate and minimal.

Quick Start

Use the agents-md skill to analyze your repository and draft a concise, cross-tool instruction strategy for AGENTS.md, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini, and OpenCode.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage AI coding agent instruction files across multiple tools without duplicating guidance?

To manage AI coding agent instruction files without duplicating guidance, use a cross-tool instruction strategy with canonical source-of-truth patterns and minimal tool-specific compatibility bridges for AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and Cursor rules.

What is the best way to structure instruction files in a monorepo for different AI agents?

The best way to structure instruction files in a monorepo is using layered instruction files with path-scoped overrides. This monorepo rule architecture applies precedence awareness to ensure package-scoped workflows remain accurate across tools.

Does this approach support GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, and Gemini CLI simultaneously?

Yes, this approach supports GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, and Gemini CLI simultaneously. Cross-tool instruction design covers AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, Cursor, Aider, and OpenCode, applying frontmatter discovery metadata to maintain compatibility.

How do I migrate existing rules between different AI coding agent formats safely?

To migrate rules between AI coding agent formats safely, apply safety-aware rule writing practices. This involves writing concise, non-duplicative instructions and using cross-tool compatibility bridges to translate formats without losing context or precedence.

What should I exclude from AI coding agent instruction files to keep them concise?

You should exclude duplicated guidance and redundant context to keep AI coding agent instruction files concise. The strategy emphasizes safety-aware rule writing, ensuring only minimal, necessary instructions are included for repository-wide and package-scoped workflows.
