This repository ships five integrations from the same source tree: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent CLI/IDE, Hermes Agent, and Prime Agent: - .claude-plugin/plugin.json + .claude-plugin/marketplace.json — Claude Code manifest and marketplace entry. - .codex-plugin/plugin.json — Codex plugin manifest. - .cursor-plugin/plugin.json + .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json — Cursor Agent CLI/IDE manifest and marketplace entry. - plugin.yaml + __init__.py — Hermes manifest and Python registration adapter. It registers the shared skills read-only under the ai-agents-skills: namespace and maps compatible lifecycle hooks. - package.json + extensions/prime-adapter.ts…
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 31,700 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 repository65 other files it gives its agents.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 37
When changing shared behavior (a skill, an agent, a hook script), preserve
- Very specific: line 47
Run pytest -q tests/test_hermes_plugin.py and an isolated hermes plugins install file://...
- Distinctive: line 49
All authored repository text (skills, docs, manifests, commit messages) is English.
≈ “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.

This repository ships five integrations from the same source tree: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent CLI/IDE, Hermes Agent, and Prime Agent:
.claude-plugin/plugin.json+.claude-plugin/marketplace.json— Claude Code manifest and marketplace entry..codex-plugin/plugin.json— Codex plugin manifest..cursor-plugin/plugin.json+.cursor-plugin/marketplace.json— Cursor Agent CLI/IDE manifest and marketplace entry.plugin.yaml+__init__.py— Hermes manifest and Python registration adapter. It registers the shared skills read-only under theai-agents-skills:namespace and maps compatible lifecycle hooks.package.json+extensions/prime-adapter.ts— Prime Agent capability-package manifest and lifecycle adapter. It exposesskills/andagents/through the Prime package resource API, then maps only lifecycle events Prime supports.
Conventions
- Shared skills live under
skills/and are used by all four integrations — don't fork or duplicate a skill per runtime. - Runtime-specific lifecycle hook maps stay separate:
hooks/hooks.json(Claude Code),hooks/codex-hooks.json(Codex, declared explicitly in.codex-plugin/plugin.json), andhooks/cursor-hooks.json(Cursor — routes every event throughhooks/cursor-adapter.sh, which normalizes Cursor's payload field names into the shape the sharedtg-*.sh/abbr-inject.shscripts already expect). Do not merge them, and put any Cursor-specific translation logic in the adapter, not in the shared scripts. Cursor has noNotification/PermissionRequestequivalent — the "needs attention" ping is intentionally not wired for Cursor; see docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-31-cursor-plugin-design.md. - Hermes lifecycle translation belongs in the root
__init__.py; shared shell hooks continue to consume the normalized Claude-shaped JSON payload. Hermes has no permission/idle notification event, so that ping degrades safely just as it does under Cursor. - When changing shared behavior (a skill, an agent, a hook script), preserve
all five integrations — verify the change still works for Claude Code,
Codex, Cursor, Hermes, and Prime Agent, and update every manifest the change
affects metadata for (e.g.
version). - Codex hooks must be declared explicitly as
./hooks/codex-hooks.jsonso Codex does not auto-discover the Claude Code-specifichooks/hooks.json. Plugin hooks require the user's Codex trust review before they can execute. - Script-bearing skills must resolve the root through
AI_AGENTS_SKILLS_ROOT, with Claude/Codex/Cursor root fallbacks. Hermes setsAI_AGENTS_SKILLS_ROOTduring plugin registration. - Run
pytest -q tests/test_hermes_plugin.pyand an isolatedhermes plugins install file://... --enablesmoke test for Hermes changes. - All authored repository text (skills, docs, manifests, commit messages) is English.
- See
README.mdfor install/enable/verify steps for each runtime.

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.
