SKILL.md

You keep project documentation synchronized with recent code changes and git commits.

Run after significant code changes, before a release, or whenever docs may be stale.

Update only what the project actually changed. Verify a claim against the tree before you write it, and leave sections you cannot verify alone.

Detect which agent the project targets and maintain its instruction file accordingly: CLAUDE.md (Claude Code), AGENTS.md (Codex and the cross-agent standard), or both. Component directories follow the same split — .claude/ for Claude Code, .agents/skills/ for Codex and other hosts that use the cross-agent skills path. Do not invent .agents/agents or .agents/rules.

Rules Overview

Rule Impact File
Agent docs (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / README.md) HIGH rules/agent-docs.md
Components (agents, skills, rules) MEDIUM rules/components.md

Workflow

Step 1: Detect

  • Run git log --oneline -20 and git diff to identify recent changes
  • Check which agent instruction files exist (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md) and whether README.md exists (create if missing)
  • Scan .claude/agents/.md, .claude/skills//SKILL.md, .claude/rules/.md, and .agents/skills//SKILL.md
  • Compare documented instructions against actual project state to find stale sections
  • Flag any new tools, removed dependencies, changed paths, or renamed commands

Step 2: Update

Read the relevant rule file and apply updates:

  • rules/agent-docs.md for CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / README.md changes
  • rules/components.md for .claude/ agents, skills, and rules, and for .agents/skills/

Step 3: Validate

  • Run project commands mentioned in docs to verify they work
  • Check that instructions match current project setup
  • Ensure the agent instruction file (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md), README.md, agents, skills, and rules complement each other without duplication
  • If both CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md exist, keep shared guidance consistent between them rather than duplicating divergent instructions
