it's actually by sourcegraph and it's been up since may.
Here's where it used to go: https://web.archive.org/web/20250702163859/ampcode.com/agent...
Here's their announcement
https://ampcode.com/news/AGENT.md
The openai thing is some recent partnership I'm guessing
Interesting enough, Sourcegraph had agent.md which now 301's to agents.md (with the s).
Interestingly, the old one mentioned CLAUDE.md and ln -s, but the new one does not. The whole website is just a marketing/partnerships battle, it seems.
hi, one of the folks behind this. Back in May, @sqs acquired the domain and launched the website above, committing to relocate if the agents.md domain could be acquired. In July, I put out [1] RFC 9999 as a call to the industry that we need to fix this mess. Shortly afterwards OpenAI was able to obtain the domain and thus we (Amp) followed through on the commitment and worked with other vendors to move from AGENT.md to AGENTS.md.

This seems much more insightful than the website in the OP. Thanks!
now? maybe so. But when it was a sourcegraph only thing (really out of their amp project, which is like byterover/cline cloud/roocloud) not so much - they really don't expend much on marketing hype.
I mean I knew about it the day it launched but I'm /probably/ crazy.
