Where files are headingNew AGENTS.md files have more rules about keeping secrets out of the code, and fewer about code style.
Of the AGENTS.md files we read, the 31,774 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.
In this repository46 other files it gives its agents.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
5
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 8
Keep static bundle CSS and module script loading in layouts/baseof.html.
- Very specific: line 10
Keep the Elements page shell in layouts/baseof.html and page-specific content in blocks or partials.
- Very specific: line 14
Use Hugo render hooks to map markdown features onto Elements:
- Very specific: line 23
Keep local and hosted base URL handling in baseof.html.
- Distinctive: line 24
Use relative links in tabs and partials so static output works under the hosted starter path.
- Very specific: line 28
Run pnpm run build in projects/starters/hugo after config, template, or render-hook changes.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.md files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Elements Hugo Starter
This file only covers how this starter wires Elements into Hugo. For component APIs, template validation, and project setup commands, use the Elements CLI/MCP documentation instead.
Integration Points
- Mount Elements package
distfolders inhugo.tomlbefore referencing package assets from templates. - Keep static bundle CSS and module script loading in
layouts/baseof.html. - Allow raw HTML through Goldmark only when content authors are trusted to write checked Elements markup.
- Keep the Elements page shell in
layouts/baseof.htmland page-specific content in blocks or partials.
Render Hooks
- Use Hugo render hooks to map markdown features onto Elements:
- headings: add
nve-textbased on heading level. - links: add
nve-text="link"and external-link attributes. - tables: render
nve-grid,nve-grid-header,nve-grid-row, and cells. - code blocks: render
nve-codeblock.
- headings: add
- Register the package bundle for any component introduced by a render hook.
Base URLs
- Keep local and hosted base URL handling in
baseof.html. - Use relative links in tabs and partials so static output works under the hosted starter path.
Verification
- Run
pnpm run buildinprojects/starters/hugoafter config, template, or render-hook changes.
