Canonical instructions for coding assistants from a single AGENTS.md

Although more and more code editors are aligning themselves with the AGENTS.md file standard, some still use specific nomenclatures that can make it difficult to maintain different configuration files when several people are working on the same project with different agents.

Bodyboard addresses this by generating canonical instructions for code helpers from a single AGENTS.md file, thereby streamlining the production of adapter outputs for Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cline, Claude, Rules, Windsurf, and OpenAI Codex integrations.

It's a very simple project, but it addresses certain issues I've encountered, so why not make it available to everyone...

If you have other ideas for adapters to create, feel free to open a PR on the GitHub repo.
