Overall

Strengths

  • AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md
  • CI configuration
  • CONTRIBUTING guide
  • Cursor rules (.cursor/rules)
  • Dependency manifest

Gaps

  • .aider.conf.yml
  • GEMINI.md
  • .openhands/setup.sh

Suggestions to improve for a specific model

  1. 1
    GEMINI.md
    Add a GEMINI.md at the repo root covering project goals, layout, setup commands, and conventions. Aim for 800+ chars of real guidance (not boilerplate).
    +11.4 pts
  2. 2
    Manageable size
    If possible, split into smaller modules or carve out a focused entry path. Document where to start in AGENTS.md.
    +4.5 pts
  3. 3
    Test suite
    Add a tests/ (or test/, __tests__/, spec/) directory with runnable tests. Document how to run them in AGENTS.md.

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.
87.2
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.
91.8
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.
86.4
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.
88.7
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.
78.6
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.
78.8
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).
77.8
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.
88.0

Alternatives

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