Code Standards — Universal AI Tool Configuration Generator

Generate code standards files based on Linus Torvalds' "Good Taste" philosophy. Auto-detects AI tools in your project and creates the appropriate configuration files in the user's language.

When to Use

User wants to set up coding standards for a project
User wants to sync code quality rules across AI coding tools
User mentions "code standards", "init claude md", "code review", or equivalent in any language

Instructions for Agent

Step 1: Detect Language & Read Template

Detect the user's language. Read the matching template from this skill's

references/

directory:

Simplified Chinese →
```
references/code-standards-zh-CN.md
```
Traditional Chinese →
```
references/code-standards-zh-TW.md
```
Japanese →
```
references/code-standards-ja.md
```
All other languages →
```
references/code-standards-en.md
```

Step 2: Detect AI Tools

bash

PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)

[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.cursor" ] && echo "CURSOR"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/AGENTS.md" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.codex" ] && echo "CODEX"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/GEMINI.md" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.gemini" ] && echo "GEMINI"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.github" ] && echo "COPILOT"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.windsurf" ] || [ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/.windsurfrules" ] && echo "WINDSURF"
[ -f "$PROJECT_ROOT/.aider.conf.yml" ] && echo "AIDER"
[ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.clinerules" ] || [ -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/.roo" ] && echo "CLINE"

Step 3: Generate Files

Write the template content directly. No confirmation needed — the user invoked this skill, that IS the intent.

Always generate:

CLAUDE.md

For each detected tool, also generate:

Tool	File	Notes
Cursor	`.cursor/rules/code-standards.mdc`	Prepend `---\ndescription: "Linus Torvalds code standards"\nalwaysApply: true\n---\n`
Codex	`AGENTS.md`	Same content
Gemini	`GEMINI.md`	Same content
Copilot	`.github/copilot-instructions.md`	`mkdir -p .github` first
Windsurf	`.windsurfrules`	Same content
Aider	`CONVENTIONS.md`	Same content
Cline/Roo	`.clinerules/code-standards.md`	`mkdir -p .clinerules` first

Step 4: Report

Report created files in the user's language. Keep it brief.

Response Guidelines

Execute immediately — No confirmation, no "shall I proceed?". Just write.
Unconditionally overwrite existing files — Always overwrite CLAUDE.md and other config files without asking. The invocation is explicit intent to replace.
Respond in user's language — Match the language they used to invoke.
No extra commentary — Detect, write, report. Done.

Error Handling

Situation	Action
Not in a git repo	Use current directory as root
No tools detected	Only generate `CLAUDE.md`
Permission denied	Report error with path
Template not found	Fall back to English
