agent-governance-toolkit / pipelines

microsoft/agent-governance-toolkit/.github/pipelines/AGENTS.md

The pipelines/ directory contains Azure DevOps release automation, especially ESRP-backed publishing flows for Python, npm, NuGet, Rust, and Go artifacts. - Treat every pipeline edit as security-sensitive. - Keep secrets, client IDs, key vault names, and certificate identifiers in pipeline secrets or variables, not inline in YAML. - Pin package-install commands to explicit versions where applicable. - Preserve least privilege and existing release gates. - Prefer comments that explain non-obvious ESRP or platform constraints.

agent-governance-toolkit / policy-engine

microsoft/agent-governance-toolkit/policy-engine/AGENTS.md

The policy decision runtime now ships from the registry as agent-control-spec, rebased on the agent-hooks control contract. This tree is what AGT layers on top of it. core/ is a deprecation shim that keeps the historical agentcontrolspecification_core symbols importable for one release cycle, and sdk/rust/ is AGT's host SDK. Read docs/acs-retarget.md before changing anything here. Use ACS terms when writing issues, docs, tests, and code comments. Do not introduce predecessor project concepts that ACS removed, and do not reintroduce the…

microsoft/aspire/AGENTS.md

Instructions for GitHub Copilot and other AI coding agents working with the Aspire repository. Aspire provides tools, templates, and packages for building observable, production-ready distributed applications. At its core is an app model that defines services, resources, and connections in a code-first approach. When reviewing a pull request, check whether eng/github-ci/test-trigger-map.yml needs to change if the diff: * Adds, removes, or renames a test project. * Adds or changes a CI job, reusable workflow, or run_* selection gate. * Adds…

VFSForGit

microsoft/VFSForGit/AGENTS.md

This file is for AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, Aider, etc.). It captures project-specific knowledge that isn't obvious from a fresh git clone and which routinely trips up agents. See CONTRIBUTING.md for coding standards (StyleCop rules, error handling, exception logging) — do not duplicate those here. The build scripts (scripts\Build.bat and friends) put build outputs one level up from the git working tree. The Readme documents the recommended clone-into-src\ convention, which matches the…

CLAUDE.md vs AGENTS.md

About AGENTS.md

What is AGENTS.md?

An open format for instructions to coding agents, read by Codex, Cursor and others. Think of it as a README written for agents.

Where does it go?

At the repository root, with more specific files in subdirectories. Agents read the one closest to the file they're editing.

What should it contain?

Setup and test commands, code style, and the rules a new contributor would need to know.

Does Claude Code read it?

Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md. A one-line CLAUDE.md that points at AGENTS.md covers both.
