Summary

Both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot Code Review look for tool-specific instruction files (CLAUDE.md and .github/copilot-instructions.md respectively). Point both at the canonical AGENTS.md so we don't have to maintain duplicate guidelines per tool.

AGENTS.md already exists in the repo root and documents CLI conventions for any AI agent.

Type of Change

Breaking Changes (major semver update)

  • Add a `!` after your change type to denote a change that breaks current behavior

Feature Additions (minor semver update)

  • feat: Introduces a new feature to the codebase

Patch Updates (patch semver update)

  • fix: Bug fix
  • deps: Dependency upgrade
  • revert: Revert a previous commit
  • chore: Change that does not affect production code
  • refactor: Refactoring existing code without changing behavior
  • test: Add/update/remove tests

Testing

Notes: No production code changes. Verifying that the two new pointer files render and link correctly is sufficient.

Steps:

  1. View CLAUDE.md on GitHub — the link to AGENTS.md resolves.
  2. View .github/copilot-instructions.md on GitHub — the link to AGENTS.md resolves.
