openclaw skills install agent-rule-pilotSay 'sync my agent configs' to write coding rules once and sync to Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, and 4 more agents.
openclaw skills install agent-rule-pilotYou use Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and other AI agents — but each has its own config file. Edit one, the others go stale. This skill keeps them all in sync from a single RULES.md.
Just say:
| Agent | Config file |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | CLAUDE.md |
| Cursor | .cursorrules |
| GitHub Copilot | .github/copilot-instructions.md |
| Windsurf | .windsurfrules |
| Aider | .aider.conf.yml |
| Codex CLI | AGENTS.md |
| Cody | .sourcegraph/cody.json |
| Continue.dev | .continuerc.json |
Below are instructions for Claude Code. You can ignore this section.
Detect which agent configs exist, then pick the right mode:
RULES.md exists → Sync to all agent configs. Each agent gets common rules + agent-specific extensions (e.g., Claude Code gets "use Read not cat"). Show diff before writing.
No RULES.md, but configs exist → Reverse-extract common rules into a new RULES.md. Flag conflicts. Ask user to resolve.
Nothing exists → Detect language from package.json/Cargo.toml/pyproject.toml/go.mod, generate opinionated RULES.md.
Drift check → Compare configs against RULES.md or each other. Report which are in sync, which diverged.
Per-agent overrides: RULES.md supports <!-- agent:xxx --> / <!-- /agent:xxx --> markers for agent-specific rules.
Rules: Always show diffs before writing. Preserve agent-specific sections not in RULES.md. Only generate configs for agents the user actually uses. Validate output format (JSON, YAML).
