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

8 rules. About 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈7

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

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

    When a task names an external product or service, search the registry before implementing its integration.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 36,368 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.

eve Agent App

This project uses the eve framework: an agent is a directory of files under agent/, and eve compiles and runs it.

For a content-only change to the root agent's identity, purpose, tone, or response guidelines, edit its existing authored instructions. Fresh projects use agent/instructions.md; a project may instead use agent/instructions.ts or files under agent/instructions/. You do not need to read the framework docs for a content-only instructions change. A fresh project already has its selected model in agent/agent.ts; preserve that file unless the user asks to change the model.

Read the docs before writing code

ls node_modules/eve/docs

Start with docs/README.md: it maps each task to the page that covers it. Read that page before authoring tools, connections, channels, skills, subagents, schedules, or deployment. In a workspace or local package install, resolve the installed eve package location first. If the package docs are missing, use https://eve.dev/docs.

Use a bounded authoring loop:

  1. Read the relevant page and inspect only files you will modify or need to imitate.
  2. Stop discovery once the file location, imports, and definition shape are clear. Implement the smallest complete behavior the user requested.
  3. Run one narrow verification. Expand investigation only when it fails or the request needs project-specific details.

Follow links or inspect public types only when the routed page leaves the task unanswered. Do not recursively glob node_modules, enumerate the entire docs tree, or read unrelated scaffold files when the direct path is known. Package-manager links can hide files from recursive glob tools even though direct reads work.

Prefer an existing integration

When a task names an external product or service, search the registry before implementing its integration. For a generic capability, author a tool instead.

eve registry search <query> --json
eve registry view <item>

Prefer items whose implementation is native; use Chat SDK adapters when no native channel fits. registry view links the item's documentation.

Install without driving interactive prompts:

eve add <item> --non-interactive

Exit code 0 means setup completed, 1 failed, and 2 needs an answer or a prerequisite. On exit 2, run the next.command from the final NDJSON event. For a non-secret question, replace its <JSON value> answer placeholder with the answer you collected; string values need JSON quotes. Never pass a secret in --answer. See docs/install-integrations.mdx for setup prerequisites.

Use eve for Vercel operations

Use eve to link and deploy Vercel projects:

eve link --non-interactive --project <name-or-id> [--team <team-id-or-slug>]
eve deploy --non-interactive --yes [--project <name-or-id>]

A setup may report eve link as a prerequisite; run it, then retry the continuation. When a completed setup event has deploymentRequired: true, run the next command it reports.

Validate the change

Run the validation the task requests. When it does not establish the behavior you changed, run the narrowest relevant check.

This agent

A coding agent built on eve/extensions/code and eve/extensions/git. Read node_modules/eve/docs/code-extension.mdx before changing agent/extensions/, agent/sandbox.ts, or agent/lib/github.ts. The git__gh tool depends on the Vercel Sandbox network policy, so keep the sandbox on a provider with setNetworkPolicy().

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
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

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.
