Read CLAUDE.md before changing anything. It's the guide for every coding agent working here, whichever tool you are: the commands, how a report flows through the code, the rules and what checks each one, and the traps. When you work in content/, evals/, scripts/, seed/ or static/, also read the CLAUDE.md in that folder.

  • 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.

The file

We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

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

  1. Distinctive:

    Read CLAUDE.md before changing anything.

    line 3
  2. Very specific:

    When you work in content/, evals/, scripts/, seed/ or static/, also read the CLAUDE.md in that folder.

    line 5

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.
