.agents/
Agent configuration for this repository. The .agents/ layout tracks the
agents folder convention, while skills
inside it follow the open Agent Skills format:
each skill is a directory with SKILL.md frontmatter and Markdown
instructions.
SF treats this as sf-agents-overlay/v1 until the external .agents spec
settles. The stable contract is:
.agents/manifest.yamlis the repo-owned machine index..agents/prompts/,.agents/policies/,.agents/modes/,.agents/scopes/,.agents/profiles/, and.agents/adapters/are optional project override inputs..agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.mdis the canonical skill payload..agents/skills/<name>/skill.yamlmay exist as generated or adapter metadata, but it is not the instruction source..agents/state/state.yamlis local-only and ignored..sf/remains SF runtime state; structured SF state is DB-first.
This folder is the override and extension layer only. SF's built-in defaults (modes, skills, policies) apply automatically. Files here exist only when the project needs to override or add something.
This mirrors Copilot-style project customization: repository-owned agent
instructions and optional overrides live in the repo, while product-shipped
defaults live outside the repo overlay. For SF, bundled user-visible skills are
sourced from src/resources/skills/; hidden workflow pattern skills are sourced
from src/resources/workflow-skills/; bundled default prompts and policies are
sourced from src/resources/agent-overlays/singularity-forge/. .agents/
only adds project-specific overrides.
Structure
.agents/
AGENTS.md ← this file
manifest.yaml ← SF overlay schema; no enabled overrides by default
prompts/
.gitkeep ← project prompt overrides only
snippets/ ← project prompt fragments only
modes/ ← project mode OVERRIDES only (empty — SF built-ins apply)
policies/
.gitkeep ← project policy overrides only
skills/ ← optional project user skills + built-in overrides (empty by default)
scopes/ ← path-based config overrides (empty)
profiles/ ← named overlays e.g. "ci", "dev" (empty)
adapters/ ← optional projection targets (absent until needed)
schemas/ ← generated JSON schemas (not committed)
state/
.gitignore ← excludes state.yaml (per-developer convenience, never committed)
Override pattern
To override a built-in mode or skill, add a file with the same name:
# Override a product workflow pattern for this repo
.agents/skills/sf-repo-orientation/SKILL.md
# Override built-in build mode
.agents/modes/build.md
Built-in defaults (ask, build, autonomous modes; default-safe policy; bundled
prompts; bundled user skills; hidden workflow pattern skills) are provided by SF from
src/resources/ and do not need to be listed here.
