Rules

Neovate Code supports AGENTS.md file to provide custom instructions. You can use it to manage custom rules to guide AI behavior and ensure consistent code generation across your projects.

File Location

Neovate Code supports both project and global scope. And both of them will work, they will be merged together to send to the LLMs.

Project scope

Project scope AGENTS.md is located under your project root. This file will be used by the project and it’s sub-directories.

Global scope

You can also create a global AGENTS.md file in the ~/.neovate/AGENTS.md. This file will be used by all projects.

Set up project AGENTS.md

You can use /init slash command to set up a project AGENTS.md file quickly. This will scan the project and generate the AGENTS.md file, ncluding dev commands, code architecture, patterns, technology stack, dependencies, etc. If the AGENTS.md file already exists, it will be updated.
