chore(.gitignore): restrict build dir patterns to repo root - #745
Merged
Conversation
The unanchored `build-*/` pattern matched `.agents/skills/build-run/` at any depth, so files under that skill were silently ignored. The existing `!.claude/skills/build-run/` escape hatch went stale when skills moved from `.claude/` to `.agents/`. Anchor the build directory patterns to the repository root instead — every build directory this project creates lives at the root — which fixes the skill and removes the need for a negation rule.

Summary
Updated
.gitignorepatterns for build directories to only match at the repository root, allowing build directories to exist in subdirectories (e.g.,.claude/skills/build-run/).Changes
build/→/build/to match only at repo rootbuild-*/→/build-*/to match only at repo root!.claude/skills/build-run/(no longer needed with root-only matching)Details
The leading slash in gitignore patterns anchors them to the repository root, preventing unintended matches in subdirectories. This allows skill directories like
.claude/skills/build-run/to maintain their own build artifacts without being ignored by the root-level gitignore rules.https://claude.ai/code/session_01QUwQxU8nuPrjvVpgag57FZ
Note
Low Risk
Git ignore-only change with no runtime or security impact; only affects which local build artifacts may be tracked.
Overview
Build ignore rules now apply only at the repository root:
build/andbuild-*/become/build/and/build-*/, with a comment noting repo-root scope.The
!.claude/skills/build-run/exception is removed because root-anchored patterns no longer ignore nestedbuild/folders under skills or other paths.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 501cb1f. Configure here.
