[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-30173) Add AGENTS.md

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-30173?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=18083034#comment-18083034 ] 

Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-30173:
--------------------------------------

I'm going to let this scope creep a bit and take the opportunity to improve the signposts generally within the repo, looking at README.md files as well.

> LLM-based tools (code assistants, security scanners, code review agents) are increasingly used against large codebases. HBase is a large project, too large to fit into any context window, and is thus difficult for these tools to navigate without orientation guidance.
> {{AGENTS.md}} is an emerging convention that provides machine-readable project context. Seems like most agent tools support it. Let's add one.
