I use the CLAUDE.md file as my instructions for my agent. I think all of these should be .gitignore entries. > diff --git a/Documentation/agents/index.rst b/Documentation/agents/index.rst > new file mode 100644 > index 000000000000..109266ca91ec > --- /dev/null > +++ b/Documentation/agents/index.rst > @@ -0,0 +1,10 @@ > +..
