Agents.md is such a ridiculous concept, just write good contributing docs and then optionally @ the file in whatever agetn file you use.
That way everyone benefits.

No, why should I have to remember to @ in every prompt? Or ask contributors to remember. It just makes it easier to make human mistakes. I have better things to do than micromanagement. There is huge value in auto-included context.
The GP wrote @ it from the agents.md file, not from the prompt. Their point was that instead of writing "how to contribute" instructions for agents, you could explain that in the CONTRIBUTING.md and link it from your agents file, so both humans and agents read it from one place.
Symlinks exist, but it's kind of ridiculous all harnesses just ignore CONTRIBUTING, HACKING and friends.
You put the @ in the context file the LLMs all use, claudemd agentsmd whatever the thing that most harnesses force load.
Then the model will go discover what it needs to.
