Why we included this project
Most coding agents will happily agree with you and then quietly rewrite half your codebase. This project is a single AGENTS.md file you drop into a repo, and Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and other agents pick it up on their own, no plugins or config required. The rules inside draw on Karpathy's engineering principles and Boris Cherny's Claude Code workflow: they discourage sycophancy, stop drive-by refactors, and force a verification loop before work counts as done. The install instructions even symlink CLAUDE.md and GEMINI.md so the same rules apply across tools. It's an opinionated starting point you can read and adapt, not a framework you have to commit to.
