AGENTS.md

Instructions for any coding agent working in this repo, whichever tool you are.

This repo's agent configuration lives in CLAUDE.md. The filename names one tool; the contents are tool-agnostic. Read it first.

One rule is worth repeating here, because it is the one whose failure ships straight to a human's daily workflow:

Editing AI.md or anything under people/? Follow the checklist in people/README.md and run python3 scripts/check-personal-directives.py before committing.

A pre-commit hook enforces this, but git never installs hooks automatically: in a fresh clone, run git config core.hooksPath hooks first, and treat an unset core.hooksPath as the checker not running at all.

Those files are live instructions that assistant accounts read every day. A change that leaves the revision date stale, or a rule updated in one copy and not the other, is not caught by review. It is caught by the checker, or not at all.
