What it does

Agent Prompts Warmup is an agent skill from iamtouchskyer/memex. Audit and sync agent instruction files across all coding agent formats. FRE (first-run) checks scaffolding completeness; ongoing use keeps files in sync after edits.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files and Project scaffolding. It works with npm. The repository describes itself as: Zettelkasten-based persistent memory for AI coding agents. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Codex, Windsurf & any MCP client. No vector DB — just markdown + git… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Agent instruction files
  • Tasks that involve Project scaffolding

Example prompts

  • “/agent-prompts-warmup”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. FRE Audit (first run in a new clone/worktree)
  2. After Editing Instructions
  3. Adding a New Agent Target

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 453c0e3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Agent Prompts Warmup loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 431 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Agent Prompts Warmup

Agent instruction files ensure every coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Gemini, Windsurf/Anti-Gravity) reads the same project rules when working on this codebase.

Architecture

Single source of truth: AGENTS.md

All other files are copies, synced automatically:

FileAgent(s)
AGENTS.mdCodex CLI, GitHub Copilot (source of truth)
CLAUDE.mdClaude Code
GEMINI.mdGemini CLI, Jules, Anti-Gravity
.cursorrulesCursor
.windsurfrulesWindsurf / Anti-Gravity (legacy)

Sync mechanisms (4 layers):

  1. scripts/postbuild.mjs — npm run build copies AGENTS.md → all targets
  2. scripts/pre-commit — git hook blocks commit if any file has drifted
  3. tests/integration/agent-docs-consistency.test.ts — npm test fails on drift
  4. CI — GitHub Actions runs npm test on push/PR to main

When To Use This Skill

1. FRE Audit (first run in a new clone/worktree)

Run a full scaffolding check:

/agent-prompts-warmup audit

Checklist to verify:

  • AGENTS.md exists and is non-empty
  • All target files exist: CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, .cursorrules, .windsurfrules
  • All targets are byte-identical to AGENTS.md (diff -q)
  • scripts/postbuild.mjs has cpSync lines for all targets
  • tests/integration/agent-docs-consistency.test.ts tests all targets
  • scripts/pre-commit exists and checks all targets
  • .git/hooks/pre-commit is installed and executable (run npm run prepare if not)
  • package.json files field includes AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, docs
  • package.json has "prepare" script that installs the hook

If anything fails: fix it immediately. The fix is usually npm run build (syncs files) or npm run prepare (installs hook).

2. After Editing Instructions

When the user edits AGENTS.md (or asks you to):

  1. Edit only AGENTS.md — never edit the copies directly
  2. Run sync: node scripts/postbuild.mjs (or npm run build)
  3. Verify: npm test -- tests/integration/agent-docs-consistency.test.ts
  4. Confirm all 5 files are identical
Show full SKILL.md (174 more words)Show less
3. Adding a New Agent Target

When a new coding agent emerges that reads a different file:

  1. Identify the file name the agent reads (e.g., .devinrules, CLINE.md)
  2. Update scripts/postbuild.mjs — add cpSync("AGENTS.md", "<new-file>");
  3. Update tests/integration/agent-docs-consistency.test.ts — add expect(readFileSync("<new-file>", "utf-8")).toBe(agents);
  4. Update scripts/pre-commit — add the new file to the TARGETS array
  5. Create the file: cp AGENTS.md <new-file>
  6. If it should be npm-published: add to package.json files array
  7. Run npm test to verify
  8. Update this skill's mapping table above

Troubleshooting

"ERROR: CLAUDE.md has drifted from AGENTS.md" → Someone edited a copy instead of AGENTS.md. Fix: cp AGENTS.md CLAUDE.md (or whichever file drifted). Then check if the edit in the copy should be applied — if so, edit AGENTS.md first, then npm run build.

Pre-commit hook not running → npm run prepare to reinstall. Or manually: cp scripts/pre-commit .git/hooks/pre-commit && chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit

CI failing on agent docs → npm run build && npm test locally. If it passes locally but fails in CI, check that the build step runs before test in the workflow.

Current Mapping Reference
