SKILL.md Source
# Skill: context-files-bootstrap ## Purpose Create and maintain a multi-tool context setup using `AGENTS.md` as canonical source and synced adapter files for other tools. ## When to use Use this skill when the user asks to: - Create `AGENTS.md` from scratch - Translate existing context files to a unified format - Add `CLAUDE.md`, `GEMINI.md`, `COPILOT.md`, `CURSOR.md`, `CODEX.md`, `AGENT.md` adapters - Keep all context files synchronized after process changes ## Output files Mandatory: - `AGENTS.md` (canonical) Optional adapters (create only requested ones): - `CLAUDE.md` - `GEMINI.md` - `COPILOT.md` - `CURSOR.md` - `CODEX.md` - `AGENT.md` ## Workflow 1. Inspect existing docs (`README.md`, CI workflows, lint/test scripts, architecture docs). 2. Draft `AGENTS.md` with executable commands and explicit conventions. 3. Create adapter files as thin wrappers that point to `AGENTS.md`. 4. Verify consistency across files. 5. Return a short changelog with touched paths and any assumptions. ## AGENTS.md minimum sections - Project overview - Setup commands - Development/test/lint/typecheck/build commands - Code style and architecture rules - Security and secret handling - Contribution flow (commit/PR) ## Quality rules - Prefer precise commands over generic text. - Avoid duplicated policy text across adapters. - Keep adapters short and stable. - If something is unknown, mark as `TODO:` instead of inventing details. ## Adapter template Use this exact structure for adapters: ```markdown # <TOOL_FILE_NAME> This repository uses `AGENTS.md` as the canonical agent context. Read and apply first: `./AGENTS.md` If this file conflicts with `AGENTS.md`, `AGENTS.md` wins. If user instructions in chat conflict, user instructions win. ``` ## Maintenance mode When updating an existing project: 1. Update `AGENTS.md` first. 2. Refresh adapter files only if precedence text is missing or stale. 3. Do not add tool-specific behavior unless explicitly requested. ## Deliverable style - Keep final response concise. - Include list of created/updated files. - Include 1-2 practical next steps.
