Agents Bootstrap

AGENTS Bootstrap

Generate a concise, project-specific AGENTS.md tailored to the user's goal.

Core rules

• Use assets/agents-template.md as the base structure.
• No placeholders in the final AGENTS.md.
• Keep the file concise and enforceable.
• Draft in chat first; ask for confirmation before writing.
• Before overwriting, create a backup: AGENTS.md.bak.<timestamp>.
• If MCP tools are in scope and docs/mcp-tools.md is missing or stale, instruct to use the mcp-tools-catalog skill before finalizing AGENTS.md.

Required inputs

Collect these if not provided:

• Role and objective
• Non-negotiable constraints
• Stack and data sources
• Testing toolchain (unit/integration/e2e commands, frameworks, MCP tools)
• Whether Issue CSV workflow is in scope

Ask at most 2 clarification questions, then proceed with stated assumptions. If the task continues across turns, re-invoke this skill to keep the rules active.

Output requirements

The final AGENTS.md must include (when applicable):

• Role & objective
• Constraints
• Tech & data sources
• Project testing strategy (tools + commands)
• E2E loop (plan → issues → implement → test → review → commit → regression)
• Plan & issue generation reference (use plan skill)
• Issue CSV policy (if Issue CSV workflow is in scope)
• Tool usage (MCP usage guidance)
• Testing policy reference (docs/testing-policy.md)
• Safety and output style

Write flow

1. Draft the tailored AGENTS.md in chat.
2. Ask: "Reply CONFIRM to overwrite AGENTS.md."
3. On confirmation:
   • Backup current file to AGENTS.md.bak.<timestamp> if it exists.
   • Write the new AGENTS.md.

Do not edit other files.
