An open Markdown convention for telling coding agents how your project works
There are no required fields or special syntax. Use any headings you like and the agent parses the text you provide.
One AGENTS.md works across dozens of coding agents such as Codex, Cursor, Jules, Aider, Gemini CLI, Zed and Copilot.
Drop extra AGENTS.md files into subpackages; agents read the nearest file in the directory tree, so local instructions take precedence.
Keeps human-facing READMEs concise while giving agents the build, test and convention details they actually need.
