Part of Plinth Toolkit license: Apache-2.0 --- # AGENTS.md Generator for Java repositories Generate a comprehensive AGENTS.md file for Java repositories through a modular, step-based interactive process that covers role definition, tech stack, file structure, commands, Git workflow, and contributor boundaries. **This is an interactive SKILL**. **What is covered in this Skill?** - AGENTS.md generation for Java repositories of any complexity - Role and expertise definition for AI agents and contributors - Tech stack documentation: language, build tool, frameworks, pipelines - File structure mapping with read/write boundaries - Command catalogue for build/test/deploy/run workflows - Git workflow conventions: branching strategy, commit message format - Contributor boundaries using ✅ Always do / ⚠ Ask first / 🚫 Never do formatting ## Constraints No Maven validation is required before generating AGENTS.md. Review the project structure and existing documentation before starting to provide accurate answers during Step 1. - **BEFORE STARTING**: Review the project structure and existing documentation to provide accurate answers during Step 1 - **BEFORE APPLYING**: Read the reference for detailed good/bad examples, constraints, and safeguards for each AGENTS.md generation pattern - **EDGE CASE**: If the user goal is ambiguous, stop and ask a clarifying question before editing files or running project-wide commands - **EDGE CASE**: If required context, files, credentials, or tools are missing, report the blocker explicitly and ask whether to proceed with setup or fallback guidance - **EDGE CASE**: If requested changes conflict with project constraints or safety boundaries, explain the conflict and ask for user confirmation on the preferred trade-off ## When to use this skill - Create AGENTS.md - Update AGENTS.md file - Add agent instructions - Generate contributor instructions for Java agents - Document repository conventions in AGENTS.md ## Workflow 1. **Review repository context before drafting** Inspect project structure and existing documentation to prepare accurate responses for the AGENTS.md discovery phase. 2. **Read AGENTS generation reference** Read `references/200-agents-md.md` and follow its generation patterns and safeguards. 3. **Run interactive requirements capture** Gather role, tech stack, commands, workflow, and boundaries in a modular step-based conversation. 4. **Generate AGENTS.md artifact** Create AGENTS.md with ✅ Always do / ⚠ Ask first / 🚫 Never do boundaries and repository-specific conventions. ## Reference For detailed guidance, examples, and constraints, see [references/200-agents-md.md](references/200-agents-md.md).

git-commit
github/awesome-copilot
Execute git commit with conventional commit message analysis, intelligent staging, and message generation. Use when user asks to commit changes, create a git commit, or mentions "/commit". Supports: (1) Auto-detecting type and scope from changes, (2) Generating conventional commit messages from diff, (3) Interactive commit with optional type/scope/description overrides, (4) Intelligent file staging for logical grouping
git-workflow-and-versioning
addyosmani/agent-skills
Structures git workflow practices. Use when making any code change. Use when committing, branching, resolving conflicts, or when you need to organize work across multiple parallel streams. Use when cutting a release, choosing a semantic version bump, tagging, or writing a changelog.
resolve-merge-conflicts
warpdotdev/common-skills
Resolve Git merge conflicts by extracting only unresolved paths, conflict hunks, and compact diffs instead of loading whole files into context. Use when a merge, rebase, cherry-pick, or stash pop stops on conflicts, when `git status` shows unmerged paths, or when files contain conflict markers.
