Repository agent instructions (entry)

SkillMonitoring & ops

Audit or update Core's repository instruction system and skill mirrors. Use for AGENTS.md architecture, canonical skill ownership, skills:sync, or skills:verify; do not invoke for ordinary application work.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Repository agent instructions (entry) skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by asymmetric-al/core in .agents/skills/repo-entry/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

This skill is the maintenance entrypoint for the instruction and skill system. Root AGENTS.md already provides ordinary repository orientation.

When to use

  • You are auditing or changing AGENTS.md, rule/skill routing, or instruction budgets.
  • A tool or workflow only surfaced a root SKILL.md and you need the full picture.
  • You changed or added something under docs/ai/skills/ and must refresh mirrors.

Workflow

  1. Read and follow root AGENTS.md, the nearest scoped instructions, and openspec/specs/agent-instruction-system/spec.md.
  2. For canonical task skills maintained by this repo, use docs/ai/skills/*/SKILL.md and docs/ai/rules/agent-skill-routing.md.
  3. After changing skills under docs/ai/skills/, run bun run skills:sync and ensure bun run skills:verify passes before committing.
  4. Optional tool-specific or ecosystem skills may originate under .agents/skills/ and be mirrored into .cursor/skills/ and .claude/skills/; use them only when their SKILL.md description matches and they remain subordinate to canonical repo guidance.

Checklist

  • Root and scoped instruction sources opened for the maintenance task.
  • Relevant docs/ai/skills/<topic>/SKILL.md files loaded per docs/ai/rules/agent-skill-routing.md.
  • If docs/ai/skills/ was edited: bun run skills:sync and bun run skills:verify run and clean.
