Every project, team, and workflow is unique.
Augment Rules empower you to specify exactly how your agent should behave. Simply add instruction files to .augment/rules/ and your agent will adapt.
Get started in seconds:
🧠 Smart Rule Selection: Agent Requested mode finds what’s relevant for each task
🚀 Seamless Migration: Import rules from other tools, or use your existing Augment guidelines
🧩 Flexible Organization: Use any file name or structure to match your workflow
Three flexible ways to use Rules:
1️⃣ Always: Attach rules to every query automatically
2️⃣ Manual: Select rules per query as needed
3️⃣ Auto: Describe your task—the agent intelligently selects the most relevant rules
