What's Wrong?

(this is what Claude told me to report)

Issue: /init skill doesn't discover AGENTS.md

Expected behavior: When running /init in a project that has an AGENTS.md file (like those from Two Straws SwiftAgents), the skill should:

• Discover the file
• Integrate its guidelines into the generated/updated CLAUDE.md
• Or at minimum, reference it so future Claude sessions know to follow it

Actual behavior: /init generates CLAUDE.md without any reference to existing AGENTS.md, leaving AI assistants unaware of project-specific guidelines.

Impact: In projects with comprehensive style guides (AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, etc.), critical guidelines are missed unless explicitly mentioned.

---
And you're right - going forward, explicitly referencing AGENTS.md at the start is a good safety net. But the tooling should definitely handle this automatically.
Good catch!

What Should Happen?

Claude should look for the agents.md file (which is in the root of the repository) and integrate it.

Steps to Reproduce

Run /init and notice that agents.md is not referenced. Build a project and see that things specifically mentioned in agents.md are ignored.
