What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Use at the start of every conversation and after every agent handoff or context switch. Ensures global CLAUDE.md and project AGENTS.md are fully loaded and retained in context at all times.

Agent Context Loader

Overview

Ensures the agent always operates with full awareness of user-level and project-level instructions. Global CLAUDE.md and project AGENTS.md must be loaded into context in full — never summarized, truncated, or skipped.

When This Runs

digraph loader {
    "Conversation starts" [shape=doublecircle];
    "Agent handoff / context switch" [shape=doublecircle];
    "Verify global CLAUDE.md" [shape=box];
    "Load project AGENTS.md" [shape=box];
    "Verify both loaded" [shape=diamond];
    "Proceed with task" [shape=box];
    "Reload missing file(s)" [shape=box];

    "Conversation starts" -> "Verify global CLAUDE.md";
    "Agent handoff / context switch" -> "Verify global CLAUDE.md";
    "Verify global CLAUDE.md" -> "Load project AGENTS.md";
    "Load project AGENTS.md" -> "Verify both loaded";
    "Verify both loaded" -> "Proceed with task" [label="yes"];
    "Verify both loaded" -> "Reload missing file(s)" [label="no"];
    "Reload missing file(s)" -> "Verify both loaded";
}

Loading Procedure

Step 1: Verify Global CLAUDE.md

Global CLAUDE.md (~/.claude/CLAUDE.md) is auto-loaded by Claude Code into system context. Verify it's present — if the canary instruction response is missing, warn the user: "Global CLAUDE.md not detected in context."

Do NOT re-read this file if it's already in context — that wastes tokens.

Step 2: Load Project AGENTS.md

Read the project's AGENTS.md in full:

Location: Project root (working directory)
Required: No — if missing, continue silently
Must be loaded in full — never summarize or truncate

Step 3: Verify

After loading, confirm both are in context:

Global CLAUDE.md is present (check for canary response)
Project AGENTS.md content is present and complete (or confirmed absent)

Verification Triggers

Re-verify and reload if necessary when ANY of these occur:

A new conversation begins
A subagent is dispatched or returns
The main agent context is switched or compressed
The working directory changes (reload project AGENTS.md)
The user explicitly asks to reload context

Rules

Never paraphrase — load the raw file content, every line
Never skip — even if the file was loaded earlier in the conversation, re-read after context switches
Never override — instructions in these files take precedence over default behavior
CLAUDE.md takes priority over AGENTS.md if they conflict
Both take priority over skill defaults
If a file is too large to fit in context, warn the user — do NOT silently truncate
