A skill for updating an existing project to the latest version of an AI Agent Project Template, a starting structure for agent-based software.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps preview and apply template updates to skills, workflows, adapters, validation tools, and project instructions.
Why use it?
It helps bring template improvements into an existing repository while protecting the project's own code and rules.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Which agent this was written for is unclear — built for cline. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python scripts/upgrade-target.py --target <target-path> --dry-run.

Good fit It helps preview and apply template updates to skills, workflows, adapters, validation tools, and project instructions.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

project-upgrader scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Upgrader Skill

Use this skill whenever asked to upgrade an existing repository/project using the latest version of the AI Agent Project Template.

Core Directives

[!IMPORTANT]

  1. Zero Damage to Existing Project Domain Code: Never overwrite, delete, or alter custom application code, test scripts (test_*.py, *.spec.ts, etc.), project assets, extraction logic, authentication configs (*.json, .env), or custom domain skills (e.g., kumo-canvas).
  2. Preserve Custom AGENTS.md Rules: Always retain project-specific domain rules found in the target repository's AGENTS.md (e.g. database safety rules, test board rules).
  3. Context Budget Enforcement: Ensure target AGENTS.md stays <= 6,500 chars and memory-bank/handoff.md stays <= 1,200 chars to satisfy FAST_INIT budget checks.

Upgrade Execution Procedure

Step 1: Preflight & Dry-Run

  1. Identify target project path (e.g. c:\AI\_code\InnovationLab\KUMO\KumoQAToolkit).
  2. Run a dry-run to preview planned modifications:
    python scripts/upgrade-target.py --target <target-path> --dry-run
    
  3. Read target AGENTS.md and .agents/skills/ to verify custom domain rules and custom domain skills to preserve.

Step 2: Automated Framework Upgrade

  1. Execute the automated upgrade tool:
    python scripts/upgrade-target.py --target <target-path>
    
    This automatically:
    • Preserves custom domain rules in AGENTS.md while merging latest canonical instructions, falsifiable predictions, escalation ladder, and bimodal execution.
    • Synchronizes multi-agent adapters (GEMINI.md, CLAUDE.md, CONVENTIONS.md, .windsurfrules, .codex/AGENTS.md, .cursor/rules/agents.mdc, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .clinerules/, .agents/rules/).
    • Synchronizes 10 workflows across workflows/, .agents/workflows/, .clinerules/workflows/.
    • Synchronizes standard skills across .agents/skills/, .claude/skills/, .cline/skills/ while preserving custom domain skills intact.
    • Copies safety hooks, reviewer contracts, documentation, and validation scripts (scripts/check-template.py, scripts/init-fast.py, scripts/detach-remote.py, scripts/benchmark-context.py, scripts/upgrade-target.py).
    • Updates Memory Bank schemas to schema v2 while keeping project history.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
