agents-md
Create or update root and nested AGENTS.md files that document scoped conventions, monorepo module maps, cross-domain workflows, and (optionally) per-module feature maps (feature -> paths, entrypoints, tests, docs). Use when the user asks for AGENTS.md, nested agent instructions, or a module/feature map.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill agents-md-lancenunes-codex-skills --agent codex
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# AGENTS.md builder ## Goal Add lightweight, scoped guidance for an AI agent (and humans) by placing AGENTS.md files at key directory boundaries: - root: cross-domain guidance + a module map (for monorepos) - nested: tech-specific instructions for each component/module - optional: feature maps at the module level Optimize for concise and precise instructions (short bullets, minimal prose). Link to docs for depth. ## Inputs to ask for (if missing) - Is this a monorepo (multiple independently-built modules) or a single project? - Repo layout: where backend, frontend, docs, infra live; list the major modules/subprojects. - Cross-domain workflows to document (e.g., frontend calling backend API, auth flow, shared types, local dev). - If you want feature maps: top 5-15 user-facing features (names) and which module owns them. - Any rules about MCP usage to capture in root AGENTS.md (allowed servers/tools, safety constraints). - Any hard rules (do not touch X, required commands, style rules). ## Where to put AGENTS.md (heuristics) Create AGENTS.md at: - repo root (global rules + module map + cross-domain workflows) - each major component/module root (e.g., `backend/`, `frontend/`, `docs/`,

What does the agents-md skill do?
Create or update root and nested AGENTS.md files that document scoped conventions, monorepo module maps, cross-domain workflows, and (optionally) per-module feature maps (feature -> paths, entrypoints, tests, docs).

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill agents-md-lancenunes-codex-skills --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
