Higher is better. Accent marks what is costing you most.

Fix these first

Discoverable commands

Declare the handful of commands that matter in package.json scripts, a Makefile, or a justfile. Naming them turns guesswork into a lookup.

File sizes fit in context

A single file that fills the context window forces an agent to work from fragments, and it will confidently edit code it never saw. Splitting the worst offenders pays for itself immediately.

Repository weight

Large binaries and vendored trees slow every operation an agent performs. Git LFS or a separate assets repo keeps the working tree navigable.

The full marking

Every deduction below names the file or setting it came from.

Instructions 27/27 A+

Whether the repo tells an agent how to behave before it starts guessing.

✓Agent instruction file 12/12

AGENTS.md is present, which is the format the most tools read.

✓Instruction quality 12/12

Specific enough that an agent can act on it.

18,075 characters, a workable length

names the actual commands to run

uses headings, so an agent can skim it

includes copyable code blocks

✓README as an entry point 3/3

README has a clear getting-started section.

Setup 8/14 B-

Whether an agent can install the project and get it running without a human.

✓Deterministic install 6/6

cargo.lock pins the dependency tree.

Found cargo.lock

✗Discoverable commands 0/6

No declared commands. An agent has to infer how to build and run this from the file tree.

Declare the handful of commands that matter in package.json scripts, a Makefile, or a justfile. Naming them turns guesswork into a lookup.

–Environment config n/a

Not applicable — this reads as a library, with no environment to configure.

✓Pinned runtime version 2/2

The language runtime version is pinned.

Found rust-toolchain.toml

–Reproducible environment n/a

Not applicable — a library doesn't need a container to be worked on.

Verification loop 22/22 A+

Whether an agent can check its own work. This is the category that most decides whether agent output is trustworthy.

✓Tests exist 8/8

625 test files against 4107 source files.

e.g. .agents/skills/changelog-draft/scripts/test_tui_updates.py, .agents/specs/APP-4952-tui-cost-footer-restore.md, .agents/specs/APP-4957-terraform-tooling-packages.md

✓Test command is discoverable 7/7

An agent can find and run `cargo test`.

✓Continuous integration 4/4

21 GitHub Actions workflows define what "passing" means.

✓Lint and format rules 3/3

.clippy.toml encodes the house style.

–Static type checking n/a

Not applicable — the Rust compiler type checks every build.

Context economy 11/20 B-

Whether the repo fits in a context window, or fights it.

✓No committed build output 6/6

No generated directories committed.

✓.gitignore hygiene 3/3

.gitignore covers 40 patterns.

✗File sizes fit in context 0/6

82 source files are over 100KB.

A single file that fills the context window forces an agent to work from fragments, and it will confidently edit code it never saw. Splitting the worst offenders pays for itself immediately.

app/src/workspace/view.rs — 1215KB

app/src/terminal/view.rs — 1207KB

app/src/terminal/input.rs — 697KB

✗Repository weight 2/5

About 349MB checked out. Large enough that cloning and searching are both slow.

Large binaries and vendored trees slow every operation an agent performs. Git LFS or a separate assets repo keeps the working tree navigable.

Here is your AGENTS.md

Drafted from what is actually in this repository: the install command from your lockfile, the commands you already declare, your real directory layout. Anything marked TODO needs a person. Save it at the root as AGENTS.md.

AGENTS.md — drafted for warpdotdev/warp

# AGENTS.md

Warp is an agentic development environment, born out of the terminal.

## Setup

```
cargo build
```

## Commands

```
cargo test   # run the test suite
```

## Layout

- `app/`       2243 source files
- `crates/`    1817 source files
- `resources/` 30 source files
- `script/`    6 source files

## Conventions

- Tests live alongside the code they cover, following `.agents/skills/changelog-draft/scripts/test_tui_updates.py`.
- CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/changelog_draft.yml`, and keep it green.
- TODO: add the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong here.

## Gotchas

- `app/src/workspace/view.rs` is 1215KB. It will not fit comfortably in context, so read it in parts.

Think this mark is wrong?

Every deduction above names the file it came from, so this can be settled by looking. If a check missed something, that is a rule worth fixing.
