Standards for implementing new IDE and CLI bridge adapters in SyncytiumMD
Where files are headingNew Cursor rule files have more rules about planning and tracking tasks, and fewer about code style.
Of the Cursor rule files we read, the 4,183 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 repository11 other files it gives its agents.

The file
We split this adapter-standards.mdc into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.

Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

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

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

Add unit tests verifying target file generation in tests/syncytium.test.ts.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 6,668 Cursor rule 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.

Source of truth: .syncytium/ --> # AI Tool Adapter Guidelines When adding or updating adapters in `src/adapters/`: 1. **Interface Contract:** - Every adapter must implement `AgentAdapter` from `src/core/types.ts`. - Implement `readonly id`, `readonly name`, `readonly category`, `readonly description`, `readonly defaultTargetFiles`. 2. **Deterministic Output:** - The `generate(context: CanonicalContext)` method must return an array of `GeneratedFile[]`. - Every file must include a leading or trailing SyncytiumMD header comment (e.g. `# Auto-generated by SyncytiumMD`) unless the format forbids comments. 3. **Preserve User Modifications:** - Adapters should respect user custom sections where supported. 4. **Registration:** - Register all new adapters in `AdapterRegistry` (`src/adapters/registry.ts`). 5. **Coverage:** - Add unit tests verifying target file generation in `tests/syncytium.test.ts`.
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.
