Create or update AGENTS.md with repo-specific patterns, conventions, commands, and gotchas for LLM coding agents. Use after implementing features that introduce new patterns worth documenting.
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 Skill
Create or update AGENTS.md to help LLM coding agents work effectively in this repository.
## Purpose
AGENTS.md is repository-specific guidance for LLM agents. Unlike README (for humans), AGENTS.md focuses on:
- Exact commands with flags (`pytest -v` not "run tests")
- Common gotchas with specifics ("Mock HOME needs both environ and Path.home patches")
- Task-to-file mapping ("Add CLI command → src/cli.py")
- Patterns with ✅/❌ code examples
**Target audience:** LLM agents starting fresh
**Quality:** Under 100 lines, actionable, specific
**Location:** Repository root only
## Workflow
### Step 1: Determine Mode
Check if `AGENTS.md` exists at repository root:
- **CREATE:** Generate new AGENTS.md from scratch
- **UPDATE:** Read existing file, add/update sections preserving user customizations
### Step 2: Invoke prompt-engineer Skill
**REQUIRED:** Use Skill tool to invoke `prompt-engineer` skill.
**Why:** AGENTS.md is for LLM agents. Apply prompt engineering principles: explicit instructions, important info first (primacy bias), specific over vague, examples over explanations.
### Step 3: Systematic Exploration
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add wpfleger96/ai-agent-rules/agents-md@sha256:f5ff9d48e9a8ed49The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
