200-agents-md
This Claude Code skill generates a comprehensive AGENTS.md file for Java repositories through an interactive, step-based process that documents role definitions, technology stack, file structure, build commands, Git workflows, and contributor boundaries. Use this skill when creating or updating an AGENTS.md file to establish clear conventions and guidance for AI agents and human contributors working on Java projects.

# AGENTS.md Generator for Java repositories Generate a comprehensive AGENTS.md file for Java repositories through a modular, step-based interactive process that covers role definition, tech stack, file structure, commands, Git workflow, and contributor boundaries. **This is an interactive SKILL**. **What is covered in this Skill?** - AGENTS.md generation for Java repositories of any complexity - Role and expertise definition for AI agents and contributors - Tech stack documentation: language, build tool, frameworks, pipelines - File structure mapping with read/write boundaries - Command catalogue for build/test/deploy/run workflows - Git workflow conventions: branching strategy, commit message format - Contributor boundaries using ✅ Always do / ⚠️ Ask first / 🚫 Never do formatting ## Constraints No Maven validation is required before generating AGENTS.md. Review the project structure and existing documentation before starting to provide accurate answers during Step 1. - **BEFORE STARTING**: Review the project structure and existing documentation to provide accurate answers during Step 1 - **BEFORE APPLYING**: Read the reference for detailed good/bad examples, constraints, and safeguards for each AGENTS.md generation pattern - **EDGE CASE**: If the user goal is ambiguous, stop and ask a clarifying question before editing files or running project-wide commands - **EDGE CASE**: If required context, files, credentials, or tools are missing, report the blocker explicitly and ask whether to proceed with setup or fallback guidance - **EDGE CASE**: If requested changes conflict with project constraints or safety boundaries, explain the conflict and ask for user confirmation on the preferred trade-off ## When to use this skill - Create AGENTS.md - Update AGENTS.md file - Add agent instructions ## Workflow 1. **Review repository context before drafting** Inspect project structure and existing documentation to prepare accurate responses for the AGENTS.md discovery phase. 2. **Read AGENTS generation reference** Read `references/200-agents-md.md` and follow its generation patterns and safeguards. 3. **Run interactive requirements capture** Gather role, tech stack, commands, workflow, and boundaries in a modular step-based conversation. 4. **Generate AGENTS.md artifact** Create AGENTS.md with ✅ Always do / ⚠️ Ask first / 🚫 Never do boundaries and repository-specific conventions. ## Reference For detailed guidance, examples, and constraints, see [references/200-agents-md.md](references/200-agents-md.md).
Use when you need to generate a checklist document with Java system prompts, following the embedded template exactly and producing INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md in the project root. This should trigger for requests such as Create Java system prompts checklist; Generate INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md; Use @001-skills-inventory. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Use when you need to generate a checklist document with embedded agents inventory, following the embedded template exactly and producing INVENTORY-AGENTS-JAVA.md in the project root. This should trigger for requests such as Create embedded agents inventory checklist; Generate INVENTORY-AGENTS-JAVA.md; Use @002-agents-inventory. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Use when you need to install the embedded robot agents into either .cursor/agents or .claude/agents, selecting the destination interactively and copying the embedded agent definitions from project assets. This should trigger for requests such as Install embedded agents; Bootstrap .cursor/agents; Bootstrap .claude/agents; Copy robot agents. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Guides the creation of agile epics with comprehensive definition including business value, success criteria, and breakdown into user stories. Use when the user wants to create an agile epic, define large bodies of work, break down features into user stories, or document strategic initiatives. This should trigger for requests such as Create an agile epic; Write an epic; I need to create an epic; Define an epic; Epic definition. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Guides the creation of detailed agile feature documentation from an existing epic. Use when the user wants to split an epic into feature files, derive features with scope and acceptance criteria, or plan feature documentation for stakeholders or engineering. This should trigger for requests such as Create features from an epic; Split epic into features; Feature files from epic; Derive features from epic. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Guides the creation of agile user stories and Gherkin feature files. Use when the user wants to create a user story, write acceptance criteria, define Gherkin scenarios, or author BDD feature files. This should trigger for requests such as Create a user story; Write a user story; I need to write a user story. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Use when you need to generate Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for a Java project through an interactive, conversational process that systematically gathers context, stakeholders, options, and outcomes to produce well-structured ADR documents. This should trigger for requests such as Generate ADR; Create Architecture Decision Record; Document architecture decision; Architecture Decision Record for Java. Part of cursor-rules-java project
Facilitates conversational discovery to create Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) for functional requirements covering CLI, REST/HTTP APIs, or both. Use when the user wants to document command-line or HTTP service architecture, capture functional requirements, create ADRs for CLI or API projects, or design interfaces with documented decisions. This should trigger for requests such as Create ADR for functional requirements; Document functional requirements; Capture functional requirements; Generate functional requirements in an ADR.
