# README Editor
A good README is not just polished Markdown. Decide **what each artifact owns** and **which artifacts this repo actually needs** before writing.
## Artifact split
| File | Audience | Owns |
|------|----------|------|
| `README.md` | Humans + builders evaluating or running the project | What it is, who it's for, 5-minute success, usage, scope, official links to tools, and links to deeper docs |
| `AGENTS.md` | Coding agents editing the repo | Validation commands, module ownership, repo conventions, what not to assume |
| `CLAUDE.md` | Claude Code specifically | Claude-only memory; usually `@import` AGENTS.md plus Claude-specific notes |
| `.github/copilot-instructions.md` | GitHub Copilot | Copilot-only conventions |
| `llms.txt` | Public AI doc indexers | Curated public docs index; only for projects with substantial public docs |
**Default recommendation:** `README.md` + `AGENTS.md`. Single-file `README.md` only for tiny demos with no agents working on them.
## Process
1. **Inspect the repo** before asking anything discoverable.
2. **Capture official links** for public tools, runtimes, frameworks, languages, agents, and package managers named in the README.
3. **Choose the README style** from repo evidence. Use [references/readme-styles.md](references/readme-styles.md) when the project is UI, CLI, SaaS/product, frontend app/tooling, backend/API, library, or docs-heavy.
4. **Grill the user**, one question at a time, each with a recommended answer and a on
