Manage the ## Boundaries section in AGENTS.md. Boundaries is the agent autonomy policy — the one section that most commonly grows as the user discovers what agents get wrong, and the one section that benefits from ongoing, error-driven refinement rather than one-shot init.
Philosophy. Every other agent-collabo skill is set-and-forget. Boundaries is the exception. Users almost never know the right rules upfront — they discover them by watching agents make mistakes. This skill turns each mistake into a durable rule, classifies it correctly, and places it where future agents will actually see it before taking the same action.
Scope
In scope:
- Add a new rule to
## Boundaries(Always do / Ask first / Never do) - Classify a new rule into the correct tier
- Decide whether a rule belongs inline in a topic section (Code Style / Testing / Git Workflow) or cross-cutting in Boundaries
- Restructure a malformed Boundaries section into the 3-tier format
- Create the
## Boundariessection if it does not exist - Suggest splitting rules out to a dedicated
## Securitysection when security rules accumulate (≥5)
Out of scope:
- Executing the rules (rules are guidance for the next agent, not runnable checks)
