v1.0.0 — Public Handbook Launch

v1.0.0 - Public Handbook Launch

This is the first public release of AI Tools Cheatsheets, a vendor-neutral handbook for modern AI coding tools, coding agents, MCP workflows, prompts, templates, and team governance.

Highlights

• tool guides for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Grok/xAI, and open-source coding tools
• a tool-selection matrix and getting-started guidance for individual developers and teams
• repository instruction-file guidance for AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, Cursor rules, Copilot instructions, and MCP configs
• engineering workflow playbooks for code review, bug fixing, CI debugging, testing, migrations, and release work
• MCP evaluation guidance with least-privilege framing and approval-focused checklists
• prompt starters and reusable master prompts for common engineering tasks
• templates and governance starters for internal team playbooks
• GitHub Pages documentation site built with HonKit
• automated documentation validation for paths, navigation, metadata, Markdown, build output, and links
• stronger public contribution infrastructure with issue forms, PR template, Code of Conduct, and Security Policy

Verification Philosophy

• official sources are preferred wherever possible
• verification dates and status labels are explicit
• documentation-only verification is labeled as such
• untested or account-gated behavior is not presented as locally tested
• MCP integrations are treated as privileged systems
• human review remains mandatory for merge, deploy, destructive shell actions, and privileged access changes

Known Limitations

• some account-gated or paid-plan features remain Requires account, Requires paid plan, or Not locally tested
• some MCP pages are evaluation checklists rather than verified installation guides
• governance templates are policy starters and require company-specific review
• fast-moving tools and vendor surfaces will require periodic re-verification
• some external link checks may warn on network timeout or rate-limit behavior even when internal validation passes
