Generate and maintain AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, and other agent rule files
What agent-rules does, in the publisher's words
Netresearch AI skill for generating and maintaining AGENTS.md files following the agents.md specification.
> What is AGENTS.md? A context file written for AI coding agents, not humans. Human readability is a side effect, not a goal. Adopted by 60,000+ open-source projects. See the official specification and best practices from 2,500+ repositories.
This skill implements two complementary standards:
- agents.md: The file format this skill generates. A simple Markdown convention for guiding AI coding agents, supported by Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and 60,000+ open-source projects.
- Agent Skills: How this skill is packaged and distributed. A portable format for procedural knowledge that works across AI agents.
- ✅ Claude Code (Anthropic)
- ✅ Cursor
- ✅ GitHub Copilot
- ✅ Other skills-compatible AI agents
