Instructions & Tools
How prompts, rules, skills, and MCP servers give an agent direction and capabilities.
A prompt tells the AI what you want it to do and can include goals, context, and constraints.
Files such as AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md tell agents how the project works and which rules to follow.
A skill packages repeatable instructions so an agent can follow the same workflow when needed.
MCP connects AI clients to tools and data sources through a standard interface.
A specific prompt gives the agent a clear target, scope, and verification step.
