Claude Code now reads AGENTS.md if there is no Claude.md

Once I asked, puckishly, Claude Code to “follow the instructions in this directory” when there was only an AGENTS.md there.
In the manner of someone finding a dead mouse and holding it up for examination CC said it could find no instructions but perhaps it should check this AGENTS.md file.

  But if you said that you were migrating from another platform to Claude, my guess is that it would have happily found and converted AGENTS.md
