A reusable JSON template that governs how AI coding agents build your software with defined roles, guardrails, and validation gates.
AgentSpec is easy to set up with strong trust signals. Check agent compatibility and use-case fit before adding it to your workflow.

A drop-in AGENTS.md file that makes coding agents behave like senior engineers, eliminating sycophancy and forcing verification.
Curated AI coding agent skills and playbooks for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenClaw, and other SKILL.md-compatible tools.
Convert and sync AI coding-agent rule files between formats with zero dependencies.
AgentSpec is a structured JSON template that turns AI coding assistants into a disciplined engineering team. It defines roles, coding rules, validation gates, and drift prevention to ensure consistent, high-quality code. Works out of the box with Claude Code and other AI agents.
AgentSpec is a reusable project template designed to bring structure and consistency to AI-assisted software development. Instead of relying on unpredictable autocomplete, AgentSpec provides AI agents with defined roles (coding, validation, critique), explicit guardrails (coding conventions, dependency policies, project invariants), self-correction loops (structured validation with severity gating), and session memory (handoff protocols, decision logs). It includes sections for project overview, domain context, technical architecture, engineering standards, AI agent system, and project management. The template is language-agnostic but includes a Python example. It is ideal for solo developers, non-developers directing AI, small teams, freelancers, and anyone who has been burned by AI-generated code that breaks existing projects.

The setup section provides repository-level starting guidance, not a guarantee of an independently verified installation. Check the official README and release notes.
Agent instruction templates should be reviewed before use because they can change coding-agent behavior across an entire repository. Avoid copying rules that grant broad filesystem, shell, network, or secret access without adapting them to your project.
Similar or complementary options to evaluate include agents-md, ok-skills, agentsync.
