What feature would you like to see?

As of the current version, there doesn't seem to be a feature for automatically detect AGENTS.md file automatically when launching codex. User have to tell the model each time to load it each time. Then I would want a user level, or global level AGENTS.md file maybe, for context that you generally want for all your projects.

Are you interested in implementing this feature?

Yes

I am also interested in this. A global AGENTS.md for global behaviour should be standard by this point

Closing in favor of #3706, which has more upvotes.
