AI Agent Conventions
Standardizes cross-platform AI agent configurations, directory layouts, and rules across Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot.
Establishes a universal, single-source-of-truth configuration architecture for AI coding assistants including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and GitHub Copilot. By anchoring all project guidelines in a centralized AGENTS.md file and using modular rules in .agents/rules/, this skill eliminates rule duplication across formats through lightweight thin pointers (.mdc, .instructions.md, CLAUDE.md) and symlinked skill directories. It provides comprehensive structures for single repos, standalone project roots, and complex monorepo subdirectories.
Key Features
01Standardizes thin pointer configurations for Claude Code, Cursor (.mdc), and Copilot (.instructions.md)
02Enforces AGENTS.md as the single source of truth across all AI coding agents
