Create AGENTS.md

Purpose

Generate a complete root AGENTS.md file that acts as an operational entrypoint while preserving source-of-truth and repository governance rules.

When To Use

  • Use this skill when adding or refreshing repository AGENTS.md.
  • Use this skill when repository map, precedence, and session controls must be documented concisely.
  • Do not use this skill for project/user instruction file generation.

Required Inputs

  • Repository purpose and canonical paths.
  • Source precedence and key references.
  • Session-state defaults and command namespace rules.
  • Drift-control requirements.

Workflow

  1. Run seven-phase discovery using references/discovery-phases.md.
  2. Apply required element contract from references/required-elements.md.
  3. Generate artifact using references/output-format.md.
  4. Validate result against references/quality-checklist.md.
  5. Ensure links/paths remain relative and repository-accurate.

Output Expectations

  • One complete root AGENTS.md file.
  • Includes purpose, precedence, repo map, command policy, and drift-control.
  • Uses provider-neutral wording and valid relative links.
  • Remains scannable and operationally actionable.
  • Output contract and summary format follow references/output-format.md.

Resources

  • Discovery workflow: references/discovery-phases.md
  • Required element contract: references/required-elements.md
  • Output contract: references/output-format.md
  • Quality checklist: references/quality-checklist.md
  • Canonical template: ../../templates/AGENTS_template.md
  • Repository example: ../../AGENTS.md

Constraints And Safety

  • Do not duplicate full normative specs in AGENTS.
  • Preserve canonical path stability.
  • Keep guidance deterministic and testable.
  • Use relative path references only.
