my current agents.md that made astra work well still a work in progress, i keep tweaking it try it out and see how it works for you↗

We're adding support for AGENTS.md to Claude Code. Starting today in version 2.1.277, if there is no CLAUDE.md in a folder, Claude will check for and use AGENTS.md. You can toggle this behavior in /config.↗

Rethinking skills and prompts for GPT-6 Astra Coding agents have come a long way, and best practices are changing fast. What used to require a lot of handholding and scaffolding no longer does. If you’ve been using agents in your projects over the last year, you’ve likely accum…↗

Your AGENTS.md is holding you back [Context engineering](posthog.com/newsletter/context-engineering?utm_source=posthog-newsletter&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=agents-md) used to focus on adding information that base models lacked: But then the models kept getting better. Now, t…↗

@GBohus @badlogicgames Just ask codex to add a note in the agents Md about keeping a compact worklog.md file to keep track of ongoing work, goals and steering instructions.↗

A walkthrough video about the creator’s AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md rewrite, explaining why the skill descriptions trigger keywords. Mentions sponsorships from WorkOS and Convex.↗

Is your AGENTS.md helping AI coding agents do their best work? A well-structured AGENTS.md gives agents the right context without overwhelming them. @mattpocockuk shares why keeping instructions focused, using progressive disclosure, and organizing documentation can improve agen…↗

You should totally be updating your agents md regularly! Here's mine: - When explaining something to the user, use the Visualize skill - Be concise, direct, and candid. Challenge weak assumptions and distinguish verified facts from uncertainty - Ground research in authoritative,…↗

After doing ~600B tokens, this is my full AGENTS.md↗

give your agent your psychosis: a guide to writing your own AGENTS.md @theo recently made a video walking through his AGENTS.md and the thinking behind it. This is my version of that. I'm going to walk through how I wrote the CLAUDE.md for Weaver, the desktop widget framework I'…↗

I always add this to my AGENTS.md↗

gpt-5.6-sol without hitting limits I've burned over $200,000 of tokens with gpt-5.6-sol. It's a great model. That said, it's a bit too easy to hit your limits on the $200 Codex Pro sub. OpenAI has been generous about resets, but that doesn't help you when you kill your 5 hour w…↗

TLDR: When using Sol, clean up your AGENTS.md to de-emphasize any language encouraging sustained persistence and turn on auto-review. - GPT-5.6 Sol ran destructive cleanup on three virtual machines the user did not name. - GPT-5.6 Sol claimed it completed work that it had not a…↗

i think i've come around to AGENTS.md being one of the most important files your project can have and yet none of the major harnesses treat it like that↗

@humblyonline 90% of people can delete their AGENTS.md and their output will improve. Use it as an index of pointers to important files, and even then aggressively prune it for no-ops. How's that for vague↗

Your AI's Memory Is Quietly Making It Dumber (I Cut Mine to 6 Files) I gave a talk last week and said it out loud: delete that memory, agent. When your agent learns a lesson, do not park it in some private memory file. Make a pull request that improves the skill, so the fix help…↗

Some tips to help agents understand your codebase: 1. The source code either needs to be the source of truth, or have something legible as a path to the source. For example, if marketing site content is actually stored in a CMS, you need to either delete the CMS and move that co…↗

I've been maintaining a global AGENTS.md file for over a year now, making small improvements as I learn new tricks to improve AI agent behaviors. Published an anonymized copy of it here: github.com/zeke/agents.md↗

If you want to maintain a CLAUDE.⁠md and AGENTS.⁠md in the same project, just (ask your agent to) write a bash script to find them all and add a symlink easy peasy↗
