Adopt Agents.md standard

Looks like Google, OpenAI, Cursor and a few others have jumped on to make https://agents.md/ "standard", which could help reduce clutter from multiple agentic IDEs littering with different agent guide formats. I think it will be really helpful if Windsurf can join the standard

An alternative would be to support symlinks when creating rules. I have tried to use `ln -s" to create symlinks in the .windsurf/rules folder but they do not appear in the rule editor.
In Windsurf there's an extra option when configuring rules, to have them be used each time, based on agent decision, or only when mentioned. Maybe this extra layer is what's causing questions for integration ; bu in this case it could be interesting to just have some sort of proxy : a rule in .windsurf/rules that just defines this extra behavior, and otherwise redirects to a custom rules somewhere else (like agents.md)

Not only would it be good to unify the document, it would be even better if they agree on how to itemize the topics and their hierarchies and then how to prioritize future tasks.

agree to follow a standard, but one big file is substantially unmaintainable. It should support modulization and composition per project.

Evermind_ there’s nesting; the agent is supposed to use the root level one and override down to whatever is closest.
Having said that, there’s no separation of concerns (hooks, action/commands, etc.) so it’s still “one big file” in that sense.
