# Regenerate .windsurfrules

Regenerate the `.windsurfrules` file for Windsurf (Codeium) integration, analyzing current project state while preserving team directives and organizational requirements.

**Hook file approach (default):** Generates `AIWG-windsurf.md` and adds `@AIWG-windsurf.md` directive. Note: Windsurf @-link support is unverified — defaults to full inject until confirmed (see #444).

**Full inject (`--full-inject`):** Embeds AIWG content inline with AIWG markers.

## Parameters

| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--no-backup` | Skip creating backup file |
| `--dry-run` | Preview changes without writing |
| `--show-preserved` | List all detected preserved content and exit |
| `--full` | Full regeneration, preserve nothing (destructive) |

## Execution Steps

### Step 1: Create Backup

Unless `--no-backup` specified:

1. Check if `.windsurfrules` exists
2. If exists, copy to `.windsurfrules.backup-{YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS}`
3. Report backup location

### Step 2: Extract Preserved Content

Same preservation patterns as other platforms:

1. **Explicit Preserve Blocks**: `<!-- PRESERVE -->` ... `<!-- /PRESERVE -->`
2. **Preserved Section Headings**: Team *, Org *, Definition of Done, etc.
3. **Inline Directives**: Lines with directive keywords

### Step 3: Analyze Project

- Languages and package managers
- Development commands
- Test framework
- CI/CD configuration
- Directory structure
- Windsurf-specific configuration in `.windsurf/`

### Step 4: Detect AIWG State

Check installed frameworks by scanning:
- `.windsurf/workflows/` for workflows
- `.windsurf/rules/` for rules
- `.windsurf/skills/` for skills
- `AGENTS.md` for aggregated agents

Read registry for framework versions.

### Step 5: Generate .windsurfrules

**Document Structure:**

```markdown
# .windsurfrules

Project rules for Windsurf AI assistance.

  Add team-specific notes below.
  Content in preserved sections survives regeneration.

```

### Step 6: Write Output

**If `--dry-run`:** Display content, do not write.

**Otherwise:**
1. Write to `.windsurfrules`
2. Report summary

```
