Hah, I like that these are presented as a CLAUDE.md.

(They have the same content duplicated in an AGENTS.md as well - I really wish Anthropic would hurry up and teach Claude Code to check for that file too.)

They won't, because forcing the file to be named after their product is an intentional marketing choice. Free advertising on every repo that has it.

They won’t until the winds change, and people start talking about the tradeoffs of Claude Code vs any of the other thousand good quality agent harnesses out there that recognize AGENTS.md

Opencode is good enough for most workflows IME, even if it doesn’t have the kitchen sink of features as cc

[israrkhan]

We symlink AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md to a single file in our repo

You can also include other md files like AGENTS.md in CLAUDE.md:

  @AGENTS.md

Surely such a trivial feature could be implemented in seconds using e.g. Claude? It's not about them not "hurrying up".

I wouldn't hold my breath.
