Claude Code "Feature Request: Support Agents.md": Closed as Completed

Anthropic closed a feature request for Claude Code to support the emerging AGENTS.md standard as completed, according to a GitHub issue. The request argued that CLAUDE.md is too specific to Claude Code and hinders collaboration with developers using other coding agents such as Codex, Amp, and Cursor, which are standardizing on AGENTS.md.

Codex, Amp, Cursor, and others are starting to standardize around AGENTS.md (https://agents.md/) — a unified Markdown file that coding agents can use to understand a codebase.

By contrast, CLAUDE.md feels too specific to Claude Code. It doesn’t work as well when collaborating with other developers who aren’t using Claude Code.
