Agentic AI Foundation

AGENTS.md

AGENTS.md is a simple, universal convention that gives AI coding agents a consistent, predictable source of project-specific guidance — build commands, test commands, conventions and constraints — in one Markdown file at the root of a repository. Contributed by OpenAI and hosted by AAIF. It is a format convention rather than a callable API.
