Purpose

Keeps AGENTS.md Auto-invoke sections in sync with skill metadata. When you create or modify a skill, run the sync script to automatically update all affected AGENTS.md files.

Required Skill Metadata

Each skill that should appear in Auto-invoke sections needs these fields in metadata.

auto_invoke can be either a single string or a list of actions:

metadata:
  author: prowler-cloud
  version: "1.0"
  scope: [ui]                                    # Which AGENTS.md: ui, api, sdk, root

  # Option A: single action
  auto_invoke: "Creating/modifying components"

  # Option B: multiple actions
  # auto_invoke:
  #   - "Creating/modifying components"
  #   - "Refactoring component folder placement"

Scope Values

Scope	Updates
`root`	`AGENTS.md` (repo root)
`ui`	`ui/AGENTS.md`
`api`	`api/AGENTS.md`
`sdk`	`prowler/AGENTS.md`

Skills can have multiple scopes: scope: [ui, api]

Usage

After Creating/Modifying a Skill

./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh

What It Does

Reads all skills/*/SKILL.md files
Extracts metadata.scope and metadata.auto_invoke
Generates Auto-invoke tables for each AGENTS.md
Updates the ### Auto-invoke Skills section in each file

Example

Given this skill metadata:

# skills/prowler-ui/SKILL.md
metadata:
  author: prowler-cloud
  version: "1.0"
  scope: [ui]
  auto_invoke: "Creating/modifying React components"

The sync script generates in ui/AGENTS.md:

### Auto-invoke Skills

When performing these actions, ALWAYS invoke the corresponding skill FIRST:

| Action | Skill |
|--------|-------|
| Creating/modifying React components | `prowler-ui` |

Commands

# Sync all AGENTS.md files
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh

# Dry run (show what would change)
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh --dry-run

# Sync specific scope only
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh --scope ui

Checklist After Modifying Skills

Added metadata.scope to new/modified skill
Added metadata.auto_invoke with action description
Ran ./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh
Verified AGENTS.md files updated correctly
