description	Shared workflow for editing Langfuse's repo-owned agent setup under `.agents/`. Use when changing AGENTS files, shared skills, `.agents/config.json`, generated shim behavior, provider discovery paths, or install-time agent sync.

Agent Setup Maintenance

Use this skill when changing the shared agent setup for the repository.

Start Here

• Read ../../README.md for the shared config and shim model.
• Read root ../../AGENTS.md for repo-level expectations.
• When adding or editing shared skills, use ../skill-creator/SKILL.md, then apply the repo-specific checks in this skill.
• Inspect ../../../scripts/agents/sync-agent-shims.mjs before changing generated outputs or provider discovery behavior.
• Inspect ../../../scripts/postinstall.sh and ../../../package.json when changing install-time sync behavior.

Workflow

1. Edit the canonical files under .agents/, not generated provider outputs.
2. Keep root AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md as discovery symlinks; do not turn them back into manually maintained copies.
3. Treat tool-specific directories such as .claude/, .cursor/, .codex/, .vscode/, and .mcp.json as generated discovery surfaces unless the tool requires a truly tool-specific feature.
4. Keep root AGENTS.md concise and router-like. Move detailed or conditional workflows into shared skills or package AGENTS.md files.
5. Treat developer feedback as a learning loop: when a task reveals a durable repo convention, recurring pitfall, reusable workflow, or verification pattern, update the smallest relevant AGENTS.md or shared skill.
6. When adding or changing a shared skill, update skills/README.md and link it from root AGENTS.md if it changes the default reusable workflow.
7. When shared setup behavior changes materially, update README.md and contributor-facing docs in the same PR.

Docker / Install-Time Constraint

• pnpm install runs in environments that may not contain the full repo source tree.
• In Docker builds, Turbo's pruned install stage can run root postinstall before scripts/ and .agents/ are available in the image.
• Keep install-time agent setup logic robust in those pruned contexts: skip cleanly when the required repo-owned files are not present.

Required Verification

Run after changing shared agent setup:

• pnpm run agents:sync
• pnpm run agents:check

Run additional verification when relevant:

• pnpm run postinstall when install-time behavior changes
• targeted tests for any scripts you changed

Design Rules

• Prefer one repo-owned source of truth over duplicated provider-specific files.
• Keep shared setup tool-neutral where possible.
• Only keep provider-specific files in source control when the provider requires a fixed discovery path or feature that cannot be expressed through the shared setup model.
