# AGENTS.md

## Scope

This file applies to the entire repository.

## Read First

Before starting substantial work, read the roadmap that matches the task:

- implementation work: [docs/implementation-roadmap.md](/home/kurihada/project/ai-workflow-skill/docs/implementation-roadmap.md)
- inbox Markdown test-plan work: [docs/tests/inbox/ROADMAP.md](/home/kurihada/project/ai-workflow-skill/docs/tests/inbox/ROADMAP.md)

## Roadmap Update Rule

Updating the relevant roadmap is part of the definition of done.

Do not finish a task and leave its roadmap stale.

Required behavior:

- if you complete or materially change implementation progress, update [docs/implementation-roadmap.md](/home/kurihada/project/ai-workflow-skill/docs/implementation-roadmap.md) in the same change
- if you add, remove, or materially revise inbox Markdown test cases or test-plan documents, update [docs/tests/inbox/ROADMAP.md](/home/kurihada/project/ai-workflow-skill/docs/tests/inbox/ROADMAP.md) in the same change
- when a test-plan document is created, update document progress
- when a test case is written, update authored-case tracking and pending backlog
- when a planned item is no longer needed, mark it as removed or deferred instead of silently dropping it

## Inbox Test-Plan Specific Rule

For `docs/tests/inbox/`:

- organize by folder plus `README.md`
- do not use numeric test IDs
- use stable case slugs and keep the roadmap synchronized with the actual files on disk

## Project Skills

For `skills/`:

- treat this directory as project-local Codex skill packages, not general documentation
- use skills to package reusable agent workflows, constraints, and bundled assets so other agents can use them without rediscovering repository context
- keep each skill self-contained around `SKILL.md`; add `agents/openai.yaml` and bundled assets only when they directly support real invocation
- if a skill depends on an executable or other runtime asset, prefer bundling the required artifact with the skill instead of relying on ad hoc rebuild instructions as the primary workflow
- when updating an existing skill, keep `SKILL.md`, `agents/openai.yaml`, and bundled assets consistent with each other
- if you add or materially change a project skill, update [docs/implementation-roadmap.md](/home/kurihada/project/ai-workflow-skill/docs/implementation-roadmap.md) in the same change
