Agents Md Protocol

Community

Create or review an AGENTS.md file so coding agents get stable repo-local instructions: environment setup, testing, style, security boundaries, PR policy, and handoff rules. Use when a repo lacks durable agent guidance or when a custom harness needs a predictable context file.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by stevesolun on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Agents Md Protocol AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/stevesolun/ctx/tree/main/imported-skills/agents-md/skills/agents-md-protocol
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/stevesolun/ctx.git /tmp/ctx
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/ctx/imported-skills/agents-md/skills/agents-md-protocol .claude/skills/agents-md-protocol
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Agents Md Protocol in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Agents Md Protocol on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Agents Md Protocol is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

AGENTS.md Protocol

Purpose

Create or tighten a repository-level AGENTS.md contract for coding agents. Treat it as durable operating context, not a chat prompt.

When to Use

  • Repo has no AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or equivalent agent instructions.
  • Existing instructions are stale, vague, or missing test commands.
  • A custom/API/local harness needs stable context it can load every run.
  • A multi-agent workflow needs explicit handoff and review rules.

Procedure

  1. Inspect repo layout, package managers, CI files, and test commands.
  2. Capture only durable facts and team rules.
  3. Keep commands exact and runnable from the documented directory.
  4. Add security and destructive-operation boundaries.
  5. Add PR/review expectations and required verification.
  6. Keep the file short enough to load every session.

Recommended Sections

  • Dev environment tips
  • Testing instructions
  • Build and lint
  • Code style
  • Security boundaries
  • PR instructions
  • Agent handoff notes

Quality Bar

  • Every command has a working directory or clear scope.
  • No secrets, tokens, or private URLs.
  • No vague rules such as "be careful" without a concrete check.
  • No roadmap or marketing text.
  • Instructions match current CI and package metadata.

Harness Attachment

For non-Claude-Code harnesses, load AGENTS.md as outer-loop project context. The harness should also keep explicit task state outside conversation history.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Agents Md Protocol AI skill do?

Create or review an AGENTS.md file so coding agents get stable repo-local instructions: environment setup, testing, style, security boundaries, PR policy, and handoff rules. Use when a repo lacks durable agent guidance or when a custom harness needs a predictable context file.

Why use Agents Md Protocol on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Agents Md Protocol is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Agents Md Protocol in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/stevesolun/ctx/tree/main/imported-skills/agents-md/skills/agents-md-protocol. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Agents Md Protocol?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Agents Md Protocol?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Agents Md Protocol with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Agents Md Protocol AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by stevesolun under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
