Adapts a governed project's architecture rules, config, overrides, and AGENTS.md after ai-eng init. Manual only. Writes a proposal page and stops until the person says yes, then runs ai-eng adapt apply. Trigger for "/ai-config-to-project", "adapt this project", "the init rules are wrong for this repo".

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

# Adapt this project to ai-engineering

If the person did not invoke this skill by name, stop. Do not write a file. Do not run a command.

This skill is the manual door. `disable-model-invocation: true` is the Claude Code latch. The sentence above is the latch for every other host. Do not claim that Cursor, Pi, or Codex honor the frontmatter field.

## What you may change, and how

Read the tree. Propose. Stop. The person says approve, ok, or go. Then run `ai-eng adapt apply`.

Do not Edit or Write these files yourself. The session fence denies it, and that denial stays:

- `.ai-engineering/arch.rules.json`
- `.ai-engineering/config.toml`
- `.ai-engineering/overrides.toml`
- `.ai-engineering/ai-eng.lock`

`ai-eng adapt apply` is the writer. It checks the page hash, refuses an empty `user.name`, refuses an override without `until`, and commits with `Approved-by:`.

## The page

Write `.ai-engineering/config-proposal.html` in the artifact shell (the same tokens as `templates/brainstorm.html.tpl`, including the scroll-spy script). The page shows each diff in words a person can refuse.

The machine-readable payload is one JSON object inside the page. Keys, only these, sorted:
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arcasilesgroup/ai-engineering/ai-config-to-project@sha256:b0904c74a96b1256

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.3986acb, 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.
