What Goes in AGENTS.md (and What Doesn't)

·1047 words·5 mins
Every coding agent has its own context file. CLAUDE.md for Claude Code, .cursorrules for Cursor, .github/copilot-instructions.md for Copilot, GEMINI.md for Gemini CLI. If you work with more than one agent, you end up maintaining multiple files with 90% identical content. AGENTS.md is the attempt to end that.
