The AIDE pattern for session-scoped, workspace-scoped, and user-scoped agent instructions — the AGENTS.md (and equivalent) file convention. Use when implementing the AIDE analog of Claude Code's CLAUDE.md, Cursor's Rules, Aider's conventions file, or Cline's Memory Bank. Use when the user asks "make AIDE always do X" or "this project uses tabs, never spaces" or "when I say commit I mean signed". Use when reviewing the prompt composition for the chat path.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# AGENTS.md — Persistent Agent Instructions, Scoped Three Ways Born 2026-08-31 from the wiring audit. AIDE has `harness/credo.md` (the global credo) and `aide-advanced-orchestration` Pattern 5 (AGENTS.md export) but the **load order, scoping rules, and edit UX** are not specified or wired. Every rival (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Copilot, Aider) has this. AIDE's version is "the credo is global, period" — too coarse. This skill IS the wire-in. ## The AIDE AGENTS.md contract (3 scopes, 1 precedence) ``` Priority (highest to lowest): 1. SESSION scope: .aide/agents/session.md (ephemeral, current session only) 2. WORKSPACE scope: <workspace>/AGENTS.md (committed, project-wide) 3. USER scope: ~/.aide/agents/user.md (cross-workspace, operator's preferences) 4. GLOBAL scope: harness/credo.md (the oath, non-overridable) ``` **Why 4 levels, not 3:** the global credo is **non-overridable** by the other three. It's the oath. The other three are preferences layered on top. …

How to install
mdr add anonymousnomad/aide-sovereign-workbench/aide-agents-md@sha256:fc5f90ff20f100c8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260831.f6a8b8a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
