skip the symlink, CLAUDE.md takes an @AGENTS.md import line, claude code inlines it

Codex, Cursor, and VS Code all read CLAUDE.md by default. Technically it's the more widely supported standard (though I think Anthropic should cave and support agents).

$ git mv CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md $ git commit -m 'fix: AI vendor dependency'

And then you still need CLAUDE.md symlink just for Claude.
