 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.6.0] - 2026-10-03
+
+### Added
+- `railstart new --yes` (`-y`) fully headless mode that implies defaults, never prompts, requires `APP_NAME`, and uses post-action `default` values for prompted actions.
+- **File post-actions**: New `type: file` post-action that writes a file into the generated app from inline `content` or a `source` template (relative sources resolve against `config/templates/`), with `%{app_name}` interpolation, path traversal protection, and skip-on-existing `overwrite` semantics.
+- **Shipped templates**: New `config/templates/AGENTS.md` (opinionated Rails 8 guide for coding agents, written by the enabled `write_agents_md` action) and `config/templates/bin/ci` (curated CI script behind the opt-in `setup_bin_ci` action).
+
+## [0.5.1] - 2026-07-26
+
+### Changed
+- Updated GitHub Actions `actions/checkout` from v5 to v7.
+- Updated YARD from 0.9.44 to 0.9.45.
+- Updated RDoc from 6.17.0 to 8.0.0.

@@ -348,6 +352,33 @@ Key differences from `command` actions:
 - `variables` is optional; when present, its keys become instance variables accessible from the template (e.g., `@app_label`). Railstart always exposes `@app_name` and `@answers` for convenience.
 - Template actions still honor `prompt`, `default`, and `if` just like command actions. Keep remote templates disabled by default unless you explicitly trust them.
 
+#### File Post-Actions
+
+For lightweight files (AGENTS.md, scripts, dotfiles) you can skip Rails templates entirely and write a file directly into the generated app. File actions never load Rails in-process.
+
+```yaml
+post_actions:
+  - id: write_agents_md
+    name: "Create AGENTS.md for coding agents"
+    type: file
+    enabled: true
+    prompt: "Create AGENTS.md for coding agents?"
+    default: true
+    path: AGENTS.md              # required, relative to the app root
+    source: AGENTS.md            # template file (or use `content:` for an inline string)
+    overwrite: false             # optional; skip instead of overwriting existing files
+```
+
+Key differences from `template` actions:
+
+- `path` is required and must stay inside the app (absolute, `~`-prefixed, and `..` paths are rejected).
+- Provide exactly one of `content` (inline string) or `source` (file path). Relative `source` paths resolve against the gem's `config/templates/` directory; absolute or `~/` paths are used as-is.
+- Content supports `%{app_name}` interpolation, like `%{value}` in `rails_flag`. Other `%` sequences pass through unchanged.
+- `overwrite` defaults to `false`: existing files are skipped with a warning. Source-based writes keep the source file's executable bit.
+- `prompt`, `default`, and `if` behave exactly like command actions.
+
+The built-in config ships two file actions: `write_agents_md` (enabled by default, writes an opinionated AGENTS.md for coding agents) and `setup_bin_ci` (opt-in; Rails 8.1+ already generates `bin/ci`).

+## Setup
+
+```bash
+bin/setup
+```
+
+## Everyday Commands
+
+- Run the test suite: `bin/rails test` (system tests: `bin/rails test:system`)
+- Run a single test file: `bin/rails test test/models/user_test.rb`
+- Lint: `bundle exec rubocop`
+- Security scan: `bin/brakeman` (when the gem is installed)
+- Console: `bin/rails console`
+
+## Conventions
+
+- Follow standard Ruby and Rails style; keep the existing code style consistent.
+- Use `bin/rails generate` for new models, controllers, and migrations instead of hand-writing boilerplate.
+- Keep controllers thin; put business logic in models or plain service objects.
+- Write tests for new behavior; prefer fixtures and plain assertions over heavy mocking.
+
+## Before Committing
+
+1. `bin/rails test` passes.
+2. `bundle exec rubocop` reports no offenses.
+3. New or changed behavior is covered by tests.
