agents-md-setup
Make AGENTS.md the single source of truth for agent/project instructions,
and point every tool's file at it via symlink. One file, read by all agents —
no duplication, no drift.
Why this layout
AGENTS.mdis the emerging cross-tool standard (Cursor, Codex, and others read it).- Claude Code reads
CLAUDE.md. You cannot make the harness readAGENTS.mdinstead via a prompt or a skill — but a symlinkCLAUDE.md → AGENTS.mdmeans Claude opensCLAUDE.mdand getsAGENTS.md's content. That is the mechanism; nothing else is needed. (True as of 2026-07: nativeAGENTS.mdsupport is still an open request — anthropics/claude-code#34235. Re-verify against the changelog before relying on it; if Claude Code gains nativeAGENTS.mdsupport the symlink becomes optional.) - Result: edit
AGENTS.mdonly; every agent stays in sync.
