Read the instruction files other coding agents already wrote #939

Description

@DROOdotFOO

Related to #499, which covers importing from hermes/openclaw. This is the adjacent case: config that other coding agents already wrote into the repo.

AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md discovery now ships (see the workspace-instructions section of docs/features/CODING_AGENT.md). Still unread:

  • .cursor/rules/*.mdc (Cursor MDC, with its globs frontmatter)
  • .clinerules
  • .github/copilot-instructions.md and Copilot's applyTo frontmatter
  • .windsurfrules
  • .codex/ and .gemini/ instruction files
  • MCP server declarations under .cursor/mcp.json and .vscode/mcp.json, alongside the .mcp.json already read

omp's position is that no migration step should be required: it reads the eight formats already on disk in their native shape. That is the bar.

Scope

  • Read them where they already are, in place, no import command.
  • Path-scoped rules (Cursor globs, Copilot applyTo) only apply to matching files -- either honour the scoping or state plainly that it is ignored.
  • mix raxol.inspect lists every instruction source found, as it now does for AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md.
