Fimo gives coding agents two kinds of guidance. Skills provide version-matched product instructions. Rule files describe how to work in a specific repository.

Shared site guidance

Site knowledge stores goals, brand guidance, and rules shared across Branches. Fimo’s skills instruct external agents to read it before site recommendations, planning, design, copy, and code work, including when they enter a specialist skill directly. Agents refresh it for new tasks and site changes. Repository rules still describe how to work with the code. Knowledge is optional. Agents should ask only for task-critical missing information and must not save inferred guidance automatically. Saving knowledge requires an explicit request and editing permission.

Global bootstrap skill

fimo skills install adds one small global skill to each selected coding tool. The bootstrap tells the agent to fetch the instruction set it needs. The full skills do not get copied into every repository.

Skills loaded on demand

Load a skill or one of its reference documents through the CLI:
fimo-code resolves from the package installed in the site. The workflow skills resolve from the CLI you run. If the site dependencies are missing, install them before loading fimo-code. Reference documents cover narrower tasks. site-checks, for example, tells an agent how to choose a running local server, an existing preview, or a URL you supplied. The agent uses agent-browser when available or equivalent tools in its environment, and reports what that target can prove without treating preview measurements as published-site performance.

Site rule files

New sites include AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md. AGENTS.md is the shared source for site guidance and works directly with tools that support it. Generate missing variants for other tools with:
fimo rules sync only creates missing files. It does not overwrite a variant you have edited. To rebuild one from the current AGENTS.md, remove that variant first, then run the command again.

Keep the global skill current

Use sync after upgrading from an older CLI when you need to remove stale global Fimo skills:
Use fimo skills uninstall to remove the global bootstrap from selected coding tools. Site rule files remain in the repository.
