Both CLAUDE.md and .github/copilot-instructions.md were stubs that simply redirected to rust/otap-dataflow/AGENTS.md.

Modern AI coding agents (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.) all support a single top-level AGENTS.md file, so this consolidates the two stubs into one.

open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust#3480 (comment) I just learned that we need to keep CLAUDE.md as Claude Code is guaranteed to read that one only!

GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and other agents read AGENTS.md, so the .github/copilot-instructions.md stub is no longer needed.

Keep CLAUDE.md as a thin pointer to AGENTS.md since Claude Code is only guaranteed to read CLAUDE.md (see open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust#3480 discussion).
