# Generate Tool Config > Generate tool-specific configuration files (Cursor rules, Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules) from the .context/ documentation. Use when setting up a project for a specific AI coding tool. Use when this capability is needed. - Skill: `tomevault-io/generate-tool-config` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 2 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add tomevault-io/generate-tool-config` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/tomevault-io/generate-tool-config/raw - Safety review: pending (external: skill-scanner PASS, skillspector PASS) - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: Docs & Writing - Author: tomevault-io (https://skillmd.com/u/tomevault-io) - Updated: 2026-09-17 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/tomevault-io/generate-tool-config --- Generate AI tool configuration files from the existing `.context/` documentation. ## Target: $ARGUMENTS ### For "cursor" Create `.cursor/rules/` directory with `.mdc` files: - `general.mdc` - Always-apply rules from `@.context/ai-rules.md` - One `.mdc` per domain with appropriate glob patterns - Use `alwaysApply: true` only for `general.mdc` - Reference `.context/` files with `@` syntax ### For "copilot" Create `.github/copilot-instructions.md`: - Extract key rules from `.context/ai-rules.md` - Keep under 50 lines (Copilot works best with concise instructions) - Reference `.context/` file paths for the agent to read ### For "windsurf" Create `.windsurfrules`: - Must stay under 6000 characters - Prioritize rules from `.context/ai-rules.md` and `.context/architecture/patterns.md` - Include file references for domain-specific context ### For "all" Generate all three above. ## Rules - Read `.context/ai-rules.md` and `.context/architecture/patterns.md` first - Keep generated files minimal. Don't duplicate content, point to `.context/` files - Follow each tool's format requirements exactly - Test that file paths are correct relative to project root --- > Source: [andrefigueira/.context](https://github.com/andrefigueira/.context) — distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io).
