Factory joined the industry working group convened by OpenAI to define AGENTS.md, an open standard for coding agents. The standard is a Markdown file placed at the repository root that captures operational details such as build commands, test instructions, and security notes. Factory is contributing to the draft specification and will support AGENTS.md across its products.
