Suggestions to improve for a specific model

  1. 1
    Dependency manifest
    Commit a proper manifest (package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, go.mod, etc.) plus a lockfile.
    +10.4 pts
  2. 2
    .openhands/setup.sh
    Add a `.openhands/setup.sh` that installs dependencies and prepares the project so OpenHands can run tests and lints out of the box.
    +10.4 pts
  3. 3
    CONTRIBUTING guide
    Add CONTRIBUTING.md describing branch naming, commit style, test commands, and the PR process.
    +7.3 pts

Per-model scores

Claude Code
Loads CLAUDE.md at the start of every conversation per Anthropic's memory docs, so AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md and a fast test loop carry the most weight.
50.0
Cursor
Per Cursor's Rules docs, reads `.cursor/rules/*.mdc` and AGENTS.md as the canonical repo-side input. Type config and a clean README still aid the codebase index but aren't the docs-cited signal.
38.8
Devin
Operates from a sandboxed Ubuntu VM and runs an 8-step machine setup (deps, secrets, language versions, lint/test commands) per Cognition's repo-setup docs. CI config files alone aren't what the docs ask for — a runnable dev environment is.
53.0
GPT-5 Codex
Reads AGENTS.md before doing any work per OpenAI's Codex docs — the strictest AGENTS.md adherent of any agent here. Hierarchical (per-directory) AGENTS.md and AGENTS.override.md are first-class.
49.3
Gemini CLI
Reads hierarchical `GEMINI.md` (global → workspace → component-level) at every prompt per Gemini CLI's docs. The long-context advantage favors repos that split context per directory rather than docs-heavy in general.
43.2
Aider
Auto-lints on every edit by default; runs the configured test command after edits when `--test-cmd` is set (per Aider's lint/test docs). A green linter and a declared test command translate directly into successful commits.
39.5
OpenHands
Runs in a sandboxed container and executes `.openhands/setup.sh` at session start per OpenHands' repo-customization docs. Root AGENTS.md is now the preferred always-on instruction surface (microagents are deprecated in favor of it).
47.5
Pi
Minimal terminal coding harness. Loads `AGENTS.md` (or `CLAUDE.md`) at startup — global, parent dirs, then cwd — per the Pi coding-agent README. Sandboxing is deferred to user-installed extensions.
45.1

Alternatives

Same-language repos scored for OpenHands. Heuristic v1 (same language + same host); cross-language matches are refined in v0.6.0.
