2. 2
   Type configuration

   Add a type config (tsconfig.json for JS/TS, mypy.ini or pyrightconfig.json for Python). Rust/Go/JVM/Scala/Swift/C#/OCaml/Haskell/Zig are typed by default.

Score for each AI agent

Each agent weighs the checks by its own docs. Under each score are its top three. How each agent is scored →

Does huggingface/datasets have agent instructions?

An AGENTS.md (or CLAUDE.md) at the root tells AI coding agents how to build, test and work in the repo. A few agents also read a file of their own.

AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md

✗None at the root (no AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, AGENT.md, .claude/CLAUDE.md or .claude/AGENTS.md)

Agent-specific files

None: no GEMINI.md, .cursor/rules, .openhands/setup.sh, .aider.conf.yml or .agents/skills
