I think of this every time I see AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md. WHAT YOU ARE WRITING IS DOCUMENTATION. Why are you suddenly interested in writing clear documentation for the robots when this information would have been helpful for every human contributor who came across your project??

@cassidy I’ve found that LLM focused docs have a terseness that is great to read and skim and would’ve been rejected when I was a tech writer. I think we have room to normalize a shared system for “man and machine” but that means being willing to let go of some converntions that some people may still find useful and others will wish to pearl-clutch over.

Also, if your AGENTS.md contains all that you should probably generalize it to be about the “relationship protocol” and put the codebase specific’s in a project context document. That way it’s even better for humans and still works for the machine.
