AGENTS.md0 starsChanged 9 months agoMITView on GitHub
This file coordinates the AI agent system for the project. It learns and adapts according to project evolution. Each agent has its configuration in .agents/skills/[role]/agents.md and .agents/skills/[role]/SKILL.md. See complete structure in SKILL.md at the root of the project.
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.
In this repository34 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, 3 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 7
Single entry point: All tasks enter through the CTO
- Distinctive: line 8
Skills restriction: No agent can execute a task without a specific skill
- Very specific: line 9
If the skill doesn't exist → use find-skills to search
- Very specific: line 10
If not found → use skill-creator to create
- Distinctive: line 11
Only then execute the task
- Very specific: line 107

≈ “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.

Fundamental Rules
- Single entry point: All tasks enter through the CTO
- Skills restriction: No agent can execute a task without a specific skill
- If the skill doesn't exist → use
find-skillsto search - If not found → use
skill-creatorto create - Only then execute the task
- If the skill doesn't exist → use
- Strict hierarchy: Tasks flow according to organizational structure
- Project learning: This file is updated with project-specific patterns and conventions

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.
- 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.
