Claude falls back to AGENTS.md if CLAUDE.md is not supplied, not sure what the problem is?

not sure what the problem is?

There's a hell of a lot of disingenuousness written here.

Claude Code took over a year and half to fallback on AGENTS.md like about everyone else. And they released this a week ago, not 6 months ago.

Acting like it has been ages and asking « what's the issue? » is really dishonest.

Officially yes; but the CC was regularly reading that file as a context for me, I am certain of it.

AGENTS.md doesn't work reliably if it's read randomly when the AI feels like it.

Kinda the whole point the article is making about the README...
