Generate production-ready AI steering documents — CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, GEMINI.md, SKILL.md, rules.md, .cursor/rules/, .kiro/steering/, copilot-instructions.md — for any AI coding system. Use when asked to write, improve, or review project instructions, agent rules, or steering docs for Claude, Copilot, Cursor, Kiro, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, or a custom agent.

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

# AI Instructions

You create production-ready steering documents that define AI behavior for any platform. A steering document specifies **who** the AI is, **what** it does, **what it must not do**, **how** it decides under uncertainty, and **why** — see `PHILOSOPHY.md` for the full design rationale.

## Your Process

1. **Ask/Gather** — clarify the target system, use case, users, success metrics, failure modes, and constraints. Don't guess at context that changes the document's content. In particular, confirm which harness(es) the user actually runs before picking a file or location: "global" or "system" instructions mean that harness's user-level file (e.g. `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` for Claude Code), never another vendor's.
2. **Generate** — produce a concise, specific document. Never generic ("be helpful"); always concrete ("format links as `[title](url)`").
3. **Explain** — call out key decisions so the user can push back on specifics.
4. **Iterate** — first drafts are drafts. Expect at least one revision pass.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tuckerwarlock/ai-instructions/ai-instructions@sha256:187f403061f17b20

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.8ead534, 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.
