What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the management of AI instruction templates, ensuring consistent and effective AI behavior across projects by creating, updating, and organizing persistent context and rules.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Instruction Management: Create, update, or delete instruction templates used by AI agents.
  • Scope Definition: Define the applicability of instructions using file globs or alwaysApply flags.
  • Template Discovery: Search existing instructions and identify the most relevant one for a given user intent.
  • Use Case: When a new coding standard needs to be enforced for all TypeScript files, this Skill can be used to create or update a typescript-conventions.md instruction template with the new rules and appropriate globs.

Quick Start

Use the update-instruction skill to create a new instruction template for validating environment variables.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create AI instruction templates for specific file types?

You can create AI instruction templates by generating markdown files with YAML frontmatter that define scope using file globs, ensuring rules apply only to matching paths within your project.

What is the best way to manage project-wide coding standards for AI agents?

Managing project-wide coding standards involves setting the `alwaysApply` flag in your instruction template's YAML frontmatter, enforcing consistent AI behavior across all project files.

How do I update existing markdown instruction files without losing scope?

Updating markdown instruction files requires discovering existing templates, evaluating their current YAML frontmatter scope, and modifying the description or globs while preserving the original configuration.

Can I apply different AI instructions to different parts of my codebase?

Yes, you can apply different AI instructions by defining multiple markdown templates with specific file globs in their YAML frontmatter, allowing file-specific rules for distinct codebase areas.

When should I use globs versus alwaysApply for AI configuration management?

Use globs when AI instructions must target specific file types or directories, and use `alwaysApply` when the rules should serve as global context for every AI interaction across the project.
