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 31,542 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
4 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are 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.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- could be automatic: a setting could enforce it

Run uv run pytest -q, uv run ruff check ., uv run ruff format --check .
≈ “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.

<!-- fast-agent-subagents -->Read README.md and SECURITY.md first. Keep the core (data, checks/rules/policy/engine, detectors, packs) stdlib-only
and offline; huggingface_hub and rich are imported lazily, only by sources (hf://
inputs) and output (rich, brief_view). tests/test_architecture.py enforces the layers.
Do not execute trajectory commands or URLs. Never commit real traces, auth files,
raw findings or copied benchmark solutions. Use synthetic fixtures only.
Keep model/parsing, detector predicates, rule logic, evaluation, and report export separate. Plugins return typed results. Reports are explicitly allowlisted and contain no snippets. Unknown evidence is not a negative result. Severity is review priority, not cheating probability. Make task selection explicit.
Run uv run pytest -q, uv run ruff check ., uv run ruff format --check . and
uv run ty check before committing; all four must be clean (tool versions are pinned
in pyproject.toml). Fix complexity by splitting into named helpers rather than
suppressing; a # noqa/# ty: ignore needs a rule code and a reason. Untrusted JSON is
narrowed with jsonval; report documents are jsonval.Doc. Add regression tests whenever a
new false-positive or evidence gap is found. No external model runs are needed.
Models to use atif-scan:
- codexresponses.gpt-6-luna?reasoning=medium for the --image-model
- codexresponses.gpt-6.1-sol?reasoning=high for judge prompting
Confirm these models with the user only once at the beginning of the session.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
