Canon moved (cross-harness migration S2, 2026-08-10): skill-authoring conventions live in .agents/skills/AGENTS.md; the canonical skill sources live in .agents/skills/<name>/. Read the canon router before authoring or editing ANY skill.
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 31,439 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.
The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0

Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.

Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Never-touch (sync neither writes nor deletes): _archive/ and this AGENTS.md.
≈ “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.

.claude/skills/ -- DERIVED tree router (Claude Code side)
Canon moved (cross-harness migration S2, 2026-08-10): skill-authoring conventions live in
.agents/skills/AGENTS.md; the canonical skill sources live in.agents/skills/<name>/. Read the canon router before authoring or editing ANY skill.
- Files here are GENERATED copies (
.agents/scripts/sync.py) for Claude Code discovery. NEVER hand-edit a file carrying the GENERATED marker -- edit canon, re-run sync, commit both trees together. Consistency:python .agents/scripts/checkall.py. - MIGRATION WINDOW (S3, 2026-08): skills whose canon is still a legacy pointer stub remain CANONICAL HERE until their batch lands; tools/router-check.py enforces skill-tree set-equality and sync/driftcheck skip unmigrated skills.
- Never-touch (sync neither writes nor deletes):
_archive/and this AGENTS.md. This file is a pointer router only: add skill-authoring rules to the canon rulebook,.agents/skills/AGENTS.md, not here. - Root invariant still binds:
/gate bbefore building or materially extending any skill.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
