Do agents.md files throughout your repo do anything? To find out, I made 2 branches with the same task: spin up a new agent per the requirements document. One with agents files throughout and another with nothing. Exact same prompt and model. they both built functioning endpoints and flows. And took the same amoint of time. but the docs-agent did it in half the files. I initially thought MD files would only help for extra-repo knowledge but they seem to help steering even when the info is readily deducible from the code

Most code agents will automatically grab the nearest agents file to the file they're editing. You likely want the agents files to be a table of contents to avoid context bloat. if there's anything you want always in context when touching your files, put it in the agents file
