How real projects configure their agents

44,817 repositories keep their own agent configuration in the open: a CLAUDE.md, a rules file, instructions for Copilot, a skill the project runs on itself. These are not mods to install. They are worth reading for what they reveal — what a maintainer thinks an agent gets wrong.
