Instructions for Agent

Step 1: Detect Language & Read Template

references/

• Simplified Chinese →

  references/code-standards-zh-CN.md

• Traditional Chinese →

  references/code-standards-zh-TW.md

• Japanese →

  references/code-standards-ja.md

• All other languages →

  references/code-standards-en.md

Step 2: Detect AI Tools

PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)

[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.cursor" ] && echo "CURSOR"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/AGENTS.md" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.codex" ] && echo "CODEX"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/GEMINI.md" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.gemini" ] && echo "GEMINI"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.github" ] && echo "COPILOT"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.windsurf" ] || [ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/.windsurfrules" ] && echo "WINDSURF"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/.aider.conf.yml" ] && echo "AIDER"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.clinerules" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.roo" ] && echo "CLINE"

Step 3: Generate Files

CLAUDE.md

.cursor/rules/code-standards.mdc

---\ndescription: "Linus Torvalds code standards"\nalwaysApply: true\n---\n

AGENTS.md

GEMINI.md

.github/copilot-instructions.md

mkdir -p .github

.windsurfrules

CONVENTIONS.md

.clinerules/code-standards.md

mkdir -p .clinerules

Step 4: Report

Response Guidelines

1. Execute immediately — No confirmation, no "shall I proceed?". Just write.
2. Unconditionally overwrite existing files — Always overwrite CLAUDE.md and other config files without asking. The invocation is explicit intent to replace.
3. Respond in user's language — Match the language they used to invoke.
4. No extra commentary — Detect, write, report. Done.
