Unlocking AI agent-driven development

Last fall at NedCamp, Brian Perry shared his experience as a front-end developer, unlocking the power of agent-driven development with rules. In short, he walked through how he used rules and guidelines to get Cursor's coding agent to generate high-quality front-end components. Everything he showed made sense, but it was a little complicated to determine which guidelines to define and how to leverage them, because at that time, there were many standards across different platforms and coding agents.

My search for Drupal + AGENTS.md led me to the Embrace the chaos, add a couple of AGENTS.md files to core issue on Drupal.org. The discussion on that issue was the beginning of a debate on whether, how, and why to add an AGENTS.md...Read More
