Documentation

README

Excerpt

Deep Init Skill

Creates comprehensive, hierarchical AGENTS.md documentation across the entire codebase.

Core Concept

AGENTS.md files serve as AI-readable documentation that helps agents understand:

What each directory contains
How components relate to each other
Special instructions for working in that area
Dependencies and relationships

Hierarchical Tagging System

Every AGENTS.md (except root) includes a parent reference tag:

<!-- Parent: ../AGENTS.md -->

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
