How to read the statuses
Support key
Editor support
- Supported The editor exposes that feature at that scope.
- No support The editor does not expose that feature at that scope.
aix support
- Native aix writes the editor's own format.
- Adapter aix keeps the feature through an adapter or alternate representation.
- No support aix does not write that feature for the destination today.
Use the Project scope and User scope rows to see where config lands at each level.

Sync behavior
aix sync reads supported config from one editor and writes the supported equivalent
to another. It reports anything the destination editor or requested scope cannot represent.
- A destination may support a feature in general, but not at the requested scope.
- Global-only features are reported as skipped project writes instead of hard failures.
- Codex prompts become skills, and Zed skills become pointer rules.
