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 31,439 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
1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are 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.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

After changing dependencies, run:
≈ “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.

<!-- END:nextjs-agent-rules -->Adding a dependency? Rebuild the lockfile, don't just install
npm install <pkg> on macOS corrupts the lockfile for Linux. sharp (via next) ships
per-platform optional variants; npm on darwin/arm64 installs only the darwin one, and an
incremental install prunes the transitive deps of the variants it skipped — @img/sharp-wasm32
stays in the lock while its @emnapi/* dependencies are dropped.
Nothing local notices. npm ci on a Linux CI runner reads the wasm32 entry, looks for its deps,
and refuses the whole install. This has bitten twice.
After changing dependencies, run:
npm run lockfile:rebuildA resolve with no existing tree to fall back on is what restores the full set. Verify the actual
CI condition before pushing — not just that npm install succeeded:
rm -rf node_modules && npm ciDoes it work?

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.
