Creates and improves a plugin's AGENTS.md (the agent navigation and instructions entrypoint) to the Advanced Skill Library Standard. Use when you need to author or sync AGENTS.md, align it with the component index, or trim an overgrown one to essential, mostly-positive guidance.

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

# askit-build-agents-md

## Purpose
Author and keep current a plugin's `AGENTS.md`: the project-level agent instructions and navigation entrypoint, the first thing an agent reads (Standard sec 3.10). It is the single most portable cross-tool surface (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, and Cursor all read `AGENTS.md`). Two modes: `create` authors a tight AGENTS.md; `improve` syncs it to the component index and trims it. Authoring depth is in [references/authoring-agents-md.md](references/authoring-agents-md.md). Follows the shared builder contract ([../../docs/reference/builder-pattern.md](../../docs/reference/builder-pattern.md)).

## When to use
When the user asks to author, write, sync, or trim `AGENTS.md` (or `CLAUDE.md`), or when components were added or removed and the navigation is stale.

## create mode
1. Brief interview: what the project is, the conventions (runtime, build/test/lint), and the boundaries. Skip if in context.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/agent-skills-toolkit/askit-build-agents-md@sha256:d445f2985839509b

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
