+description: Load Ansible project development guidelines, testing conventions, PR review processes, and code structure reference into context
+user-invocable: true
+---
+
+# System Instructions
+
+When this skill is invoked, read the AGENTS.md file from the repository root (`@../../../AGENTS.md`) and load its content into context. This provides comprehensive Ansible development guidelines.
+
+After loading AGENTS.md, provide the user with confirmation that the context has been loaded and is available for answering questions or guiding development work.
+
+If AGENTS.md cannot be found, inform the user and suggest they may be in a directory without the full ansible-core repository.
+
+# Usage
+
+Invoke this skill to load Ansible development context:
+
+```
+/context
+```
+
+The skill provides all guidelines and conventions that would normally be in AGENTS.md, making them available even when working outside the ansible-core repository or in environments where AGENTS.md is not accessible.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- Working on Ansible-related code outside the main repository
+- Skills that need Ansible context but run in plugin marketplace
+- Quick reference for Ansible testing/PR conventions
+- Ensuring consistent approach to Ansible development
+
+## What This Skill Does
+
+This skill is informational only - it loads comprehensive Ansible development knowledge into context but performs no actions. After invocation, all subsequent responses will have access to:
+
+- Testing commands
+- PR review processes and checklists
+- Licensing requirements
+- Code style conventions
+- Repository structure
+- CI workflows
+
+All this knowledge becomes available for answering questions or guiding development work.
