Agent MD Refactor

Refactor bloated agent instruction files (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, COPILOT.md, etc.) to follow progressive disclosure principles - keeping essentials at root and organizing the rest into linked, categorized files.

Triggers

Use this skill when:

  • "refactor my AGENTS.md" / "refactor my CLAUDE.md"
  • "split my agent instructions"
  • "organize my CLAUDE.md file"
  • "my AGENTS.md is too long"
  • "progressive disclosure for my instructions"
  • "clean up my agent config"

Quick Reference

Phase Action Output
1. Analyze Find contradictions List of conflicts to resolve
2. Extract Identify essentials Core instructions for root file
3. Categorize Group remaining instructions Logical categories
4. Structure Create file hierarchy Root + linked files
5. Prune Flag for deletion Redundant/vague instructions

Process

Phase 1: Find Contradictions

Identify any instructions that conflict with each other.

Look for:

  • Contradictory style guidelines (e.g., "use semicolons" vs "no semicolons")
  • Conflicting workflow instructions
  • Incompatible tool preferences
  • Mutually exclusive patterns

For each contradiction found:

## Contradiction Found

**Instruction A:** [quote]
**Instruction B:** [quote]

**Question:** Which should take precedence, or should both be conditional?

Ask the user to resolve before proceeding.

Phase 2: Identify the Essentials

Extract ONLY what belongs in the root agent file. The root should be minimal - information that applies to every single task.

Essential content (keep in root):

Category Example
Project description One sentence: "A React dashboard for analytics"
Package manager Only if not npm (e.g., "Uses pnpm")
Non-standard commands Custom build/test/typecheck commands
Critical overrides Things that MUST override defaults
Universal rules Applies to 100% of tasks

NOT essential (move to linked files):

  • Language-specific conventions
  • Testing guidelines
  • Code style details
  • Framework patterns
  • Documentation standards
  • Git workflow details

Phase 3: Group the Rest

Organize remaining instructions into logical categories.

Common categories:

Category Contents
typescript.md TS conventions, type patterns, strict mode rules
testing.md Test frameworks, coverage, mocking patterns
code-style.md Formatting, naming, comments, structure
git-workflow.md Commits, branches, PRs, reviews
architecture.md Patterns, folder structure, dependencies
api-design.md REST/GraphQL conventions, error handling
security.md Auth patterns, input validation, secrets
performance.md Optimization rules, caching, lazy loading

Grouping rules:

  1. Each file should be self-contained for its topic
  2. Aim for 3-8 files (not too granular, not too broad)
  3. Name files clearly: {topic}.md
  4. Include only actionable instructions

Phase 4: Create the File Structure

Output structure:

project-root/
├── CLAUDE.md (or AGENTS.md)     # Minimal root with links
└── .claude/                      # Or docs/agent-instructions/
    ├── typescript.md
    ├── testing.md
    ├── code-style.md
    ├── git-workflow.md
    └── architecture.md

Root file template:

# Project Name

One-sentence description of the project.

## Quick Reference

- **Package Manager:** pnpm
- **Build:** `pnpm build`
- **Test:** `pnpm test`
- **Typecheck:** `pnpm typecheck`

## Detailed Instructions

For specific guidelines, see:
- [TypeScript Conventions](.claude/typescript.md)
- [Testing Guidelines](.claude/testing.md)
- [Code Style](.claude/code-style.md)
- [Git Workflow](.claude/git-workflow.md)
- [Architecture Patterns](.claude/architecture.md)

Each linked file template:

# {Topic} Guidelines

## Overview
Brief context for when these guidelines apply.

## Rules

### Rule Category 1
- Specific, actionable instruction
- Another specific instruction

### Rule Category 2
- Specific, actionable instruction

## Examples

### Good
\`\`\`typescript
// Example of correct pattern
\`\`\`

### Avoid
\`\`\`typescript
// Example of what not to do
\`\`\`

Phase 5: Flag for Deletion

Identify instructions that should be removed entirely.

Delete if:

Criterion Example Why Delete
Redundant "Use TypeScript" (in a .ts project) Agent already knows
Too vague "Write clean code" Not actionable
Overly obvious "Don't introduce bugs" Wastes context
Default behavior "Use descriptive variable names" Standard practice
Outdated References deprecated APIs No longer applies

Output format:

## Flagged for Deletion

| Instruction | Reason |
|-------------|--------|
| "Write clean, maintainable code" | Too vague to be actionable |
| "Use TypeScript" | Redundant - project is already TS |
| "Don't commit secrets" | Agent already knows this |
| "Follow best practices" | Meaningless without specifics |

Execution Checklist

[ ] Phase 1: All contradictions identified and resolved
[ ] Phase 2: Root file contains ONLY essentials
[ ] Phase 3: All remaining instructions categorized
[ ] Phase 4: File structure created with proper links
[ ] Phase 5: Redundant/vague instructions removed
[ ] Verify: Each linked file is self-contained
[ ] Verify: Root file is under 50 lines
[ ] Verify: All links work correctly

Anti-Patterns

Avoid Why Instead
Keeping everything in root Bloated, hard to maintain Split into linked files
Too many categories Fragmentation Consolidate related topics
Vague instructions Wastes tokens, no value Be specific or delete
Duplicating defaults Agent already knows Only override when needed
Deep nesting Hard to navigate Flat structure with links

Examples

Before (Bloated Root)

# CLAUDE.md

This is a React project.

## Code Style
- Use 2 spaces
- Use semicolons
- Prefer const over let
- Use arrow functions
... (200 more lines)

## Testing
- Use Jest
- Coverage > 80%
... (100 more lines)

## TypeScript
- Enable strict mode
... (150 more lines)

After (Progressive Disclosure)

# CLAUDE.md

React dashboard for real-time analytics visualization.

## Commands
- `pnpm dev` - Start development server
- `pnpm test` - Run tests with coverage
- `pnpm build` - Production build

## Guidelines
- [Code Style](.claude/code-style.md)
- [Testing](.claude/testing.md)
- [TypeScript](.claude/typescript.md)

Verification

After refactoring, verify:

  1. Root file is minimal - Under 50 lines, only universal info
  2. Links work - All referenced files exist
  3. No contradictions - Instructions are consistent
  4. Actionable content - Every instruction is specific
  5. Complete coverage - No instructions were lost (unless flagged for deletion)
  6. Self-contained files - Each linked file stands alone

So verwenden Sie diesen Skill

1

Install agent-md-refactor by running npx skills add cachemoney/agent-toolkit --skill agent-md-refactor in your project directory. Führen Sie den obigen Installationsbefehl in Ihrem Projektverzeichnis aus. Die Skill-Datei wird von GitHub heruntergeladen und in Ihrem Projekt platziert.

2

Keine Konfiguration erforderlich. Ihr KI-Agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf usw.) erkennt installierte Skills automatisch und nutzt sie als Kontext bei der Code-Generierung.

3

Der Skill verbessert das Verständnis Ihres Agenten für agent-md-refactor, und hilft ihm, etablierte Muster zu befolgen, häufige Fehler zu vermeiden und produktionsreifen Code zu erzeugen.

Was Sie erhalten

Skills sind Klartext-Anweisungsdateien — kein ausführbarer Code. Sie kodieren Expertenwissen über Frameworks, Sprachen oder Tools, das Ihr KI-Agent liest, um seine Ausgabe zu verbessern. Das bedeutet null Laufzeit-Overhead, keine Abhängigkeitskonflikte und volle Transparenz: Sie können jede Anweisung vor der Installation lesen und prüfen.

Kompatibilität

Dieser Skill funktioniert mit jedem KI-Coding-Agenten, der das skills.sh-Format unterstützt, einschließlich Claude Code (Anthropic), Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Aider und anderen Tools, die projektbezogene Kontextdateien lesen. Skills sind auf Transportebene framework-agnostisch — der Inhalt bestimmt, für welche Sprache oder welches Framework er gilt.
