# Guidelines for AI Agents
This repository distributes the IDD (Issue-Driven Development)
workflow — a portable set of `.github/instructions/` files that
wire up a multi-agent issue-driven pipeline for any GitHub
project.
This file is the canonical, tool-neutral instruction source for AI
coding agents in this repository, following the
[AGENTS.md](https://agents.md) open standard that Codex CLI, OpenCode,
Grok Build, Cursor CLI, and GitHub Copilot (CLI, coding agent, and Chat)
all discover automatically at the repository root. `CLAUDE.md` and
`GEMINI.md` are thin adapters that import this file for Claude Code and
Antigravity CLI (formerly Gemini CLI), the two tools in this
repository's harness mix that read their own dedicated entry file
instead, and
[.github/copilot-instructions.md](.github/copilot-instructions.md)
carries only the small amount of guidance specific to GitHub Copilot's
own UI terminology. See [docs/ai-strategy.md](docs/ai-strategy.md) for
the reasoning behind this layout.
## Minimum requirements
- Match the conversational language to the user's language.
- Write comments and documentation in English unless there is a
clear project-specific reason otherwise.
- When editing `README.md`, also apply the equivalent change to
`README.ja.md`, and vice versa. Keep both files in sync in the
same commit.
- Avoid hard-coded repository file counts in docs unless the
number is mechanically maintained. If count-based wording is
necessary, update every mirrored reference in the same commit.
- When documentation or instruction text names an anti-pattern or
failure mode, cite the observed incident per
[docs/idd-design-rationale.md](docs/idd-design-rationale.md#cite-the-observed-incident).
- Continue autonomously for low-risk work, but pause and ask a
concise question when uncertainty or hidden risk makes the next
step unsafe. When that pause is needed, provide one or more
recommended response options.
- Keep changes small and reviewable. Follow the project's
Conventional Commits rules and keep each commit atomic.
- Do not modify community documents (`CODE_OF_CONDUCT*`,
`CONTRIBUTING*`) without explicit approval.
## Project standards
- **Indentation**: 2 spaces
- **Line endings**: LF only
- **Trailing whitespace**: trimmed except in Markdown
- **Final newline**: always present
- **File naming**: lowercase with hyphens unless a platform
convention requires otherwise
- **Helper sources**: the helper migration to TypeScript is complete —
every `scripts/*.mjs` / `bin/*.mjs` is generated from a
`src/**/*.mts` source by `pnpm run build` and committed; no
hand-written helper `.mjs` path remains. `.mts` is the source of
truth — edit the `.mts`, never the generated `.mjs`.
See [docs/typescript-sources.md](docs/typescript-sources.md).
- **Inline code span wrapping**: a code span may wrap at a word
boundary but must never wrap mid-token (right after a hyphen,
underscore, slash, or dot the token continues through) — CommonMark
renders the break as a literal space and corrupts the token. Put a
command too long for one line in a fenced code block instead. If the
wrap-point character is a hand-added artifact rather than part of
the real value, delete it instead of just relocating the break.
Enforced by `node scripts/audit-code-span-wrap.mjs`
(repository-local; not distributed to `idd-template/`). The same
script also flags this failure mode outside code spans, in prose
Markdown text: a hyphenated compound word (e.g. "transport-layer")
must never wrap right after the hyphen inside `**bold**` / `*italic*`
emphasis, for the same corrupting-space reason (issue `#2876`).
- **Bare issue/PR reference wrapping**: a bare `#NNN` reference must
never be the first token of a paragraph, list item, or wrapped
continuation line in prose Markdown — `dprint fmt`'s automatic
line-wrap can relocate it there, and markdownlint's MD018 rule
(`no-missing-space-atx`) then flags it as a malformed ATX heading.
MD018 only fires at zero leading indentation, so it misses the same
drift inside an indented list-item continuation line — do not rely
on the linter alone. Prefer "issue `#NNN`" (or another phrasing that
keeps a word before the `#`) whenever the reference could plausibly
open a sentence, bullet, or wrapped line.
## Key workflow rules
`## Branch strategy` and `## Commit rules` below cover those two rule
sets in full. This section records repository-local dogfood policies
layered on top of the distributed IDD defaults:
- **Merge policy**: This source repository records
`fully_autonomous_merge` as an explicit local IDD dogfooding opt-in
against the distributed `human_merge` default
(applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`). An IDD session may
continue through F3 merge execution only after normal claim,
freshness, CI, advisory, review, and unresolved-thread gates
pass.
- **Discover concurrency**: This source repository also records
`discover.selectionDesync: session-offset` as a local IDD
dogfooding policy (applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`),
spreading concurrent-session A4 Step 2 candidate selection across
a same-score tie band instead of every session converging on the
same lowest-numbered issue, to cut claim races under this
repository's heavy concurrent-session load.
- **Advisory-convergence waiver backstop**: This source repository
also records `ciGate.externalCheckWaivers.mode:
"maintainer-authorized"` with `idd-advisory-convergence` registered
under `ciGate.externalChecks.waivable` as a local IDD dogfooding
policy (applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`), giving a trusted
maintainer a human off-ramp when the autonomous advisory-convergence
loop cannot converge on its own (Refs #1465): once the configured
- convergence deadline (default 24h) has elapsed since the current PR
- HEAD's own commit timestamp, a trusted maintainer can post a valid
+ convergence deadline (default 24h) has elapsed from when GitHub first
+ recorded the current PR HEAD (its earliest check suite), a trusted
+ maintainer can post a valid
external-check waiver for `idd-advisory-convergence` to unblock the
gate. Treat this the same as any other merge-gate bypass — a
deliberate, short-lived, maintainer-authorized exception for a
genuinely stuck check, not a routine substitute for a fresh Copilot
review. See [Customizing IDD](docs/customization.md) and
[docs/idd-helper-scripts.md](docs/idd-helper-scripts.md#external-check-waiver-contract)
for the general mechanism.
- **Advisory-convergence self-referential-bootstrap-auto waiver**: A
second, narrower `idd-advisory-convergence` bypass alongside the
maintainer-authorized one above (Refs #2657): when a PR's own diff
touches this check's own committed trigger-file allowlist (its
source, policy inputs, or workflow files), a dedicated CI job
auto-posts a run-bound waiver as `github-actions[bot]`, verified
against the GitHub Actions runs API and this PR's own changed files
before it is trusted. Unlike the maintainer-authorized waiver, this
one is evaluated **unconditionally** — it can make `ready` true
immediately, with no fresh Copilot review and before the
convergence deadline elapses — because its whole purpose is
bootstrapping a fix to the checker (including the deadline mechanism
itself) while a PR editing it is still unmerged. It exists only for
that narrow trigger set, never as a general substitute for review.
See
[docs/idd-helper-scripts.md](docs/idd-helper-scripts.md#automated-self-referential-bootstrap-auto-waiver-kurone-kitoidd-skill2657)
for the full trust model.
- **ciGate F2 bootstrap**: This source repository follows the
distributed preload-first procedure in
[ciGate F2 bootstrap](docs/customization.md#cigate-f2-bootstrap)
when a new `ciGate.*` key must land before F2 can honor it (observed
on `kurone-kito/kurone-kito#33` and `kurone-kito/kurone-kito#37`).
Do not generalize issue `#2657`'s self-referential-bootstrap-auto
waiver to an arbitrary `ciGate.*` key.
- **Advisory-convergence deadline**: This source repository also
records `advisoryWait.convergenceDeadline: "PT9H"` as a local IDD
dogfooding policy (applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`),
shortening the maintainer-authorized-waiver deadline from the
distributed `idd-template/` default (`PT24H`) to fit this
repository's more autonomous, higher-concurrency dogfooding setup
(Refs #1465, #2076).
- **Secondary-bot quiet window**: This source repository also records
`advisoryWait.secondaryBotLogin: "coderabbitai[bot]"` and
`advisoryWait.secondaryQuietWindow: "PT1H"` as a local IDD dogfooding
opt-in (applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`), waiting up to one
hour after E-phase convergence conditions are first observed before
pre-merge readiness treats review as settled. This repository
dogfoods CodeRabbit alongside Copilot and has twice hit CodeRabbit
rate-limiting during a PR's review cycle, each time working around
it with an ad hoc one-hour wait before merging; this config turns
that informal practice into a proper `pre-merge-readiness` blocker
(Refs #2335, #2410). As of #2544, the wait is conditioned on live
review evidence rather than unconditional: once CodeRabbit has
already posted a genuine (non-rate-limited) review for the current
HEAD, only a short fixed confirmation buffer applies instead of the
full hour -- a HEAD CodeRabbit has not yet reviewed still waits the
full configured window unchanged, keeping the wait a fallback for
genuine secondary-bot degradation rather than a tax on every merge.
As of #2547, a definitive decline verdict for the current HEAD -- a
rate-limit or skip-review notice with no genuine comment after it --
is checked before that #2544 short-buffer path and completes the
wait immediately -- zero delay, not even the confirmation buffer:
once CodeRabbit has conclusively said it will not review this
commit, #2335's "might still be mid-review" protection has nothing
left to protect.
- **New-CI-job dispatch-first rollout**: `idd-pr-submit.instructions.md`'s
D2 "Adding a new CI job" guidance (distributed via `idd-template/`, not
itself local) requires landing a new CI job `workflow_dispatch`-first.
This source repository also records, as a local IDD dogfooding policy
(applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`), the motivation for that
guidance: this repository's own `copilot_code_review` ruleset, whose
Copilot/Codex review cost tracks push count roughly 1:1 regardless of
which CI jobs a push touches -- landing a new job
`workflow_dispatch`-first does not reduce that review-cost line item
by itself, but avoids wasted CI Actions-minutes and false-failure
noise from an unproven job auto-running on every unrelated push. See
that guidance (and its linked rationale entry) for the mechanics
rather than duplicating them here. Refs #2892 (non-blocking).
- **Critique-loop telemetry hook**: This source repository also
records `critiqueLoop.telemetryHook.command:
"idd-critique-telemetry"` as a local IDD dogfooding policy (applies
only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`). Roadmap #2677 and its children
issues #2678-#2680 built the `critiqueLoop.telemetryHook` mechanism
as a distributed, opt-in per-operator feature, but that roadmap's
own scope stopped at the mechanism and never configured it for this
repository. Observed 2026-09-14, issue #3001: an in-repo audit found
`critiqueLoop.delegate` already configured and in genuine, frequent
use, while C1's own effectiveness at mitigating E-phase Copilot
review cost -- the purpose `docs/idd-design-rationale.md` documents
for the critique loop -- had zero observability. The configured
command is the bare name `idd-critique-telemetry`, not a hardcoded
absolute path, because this file is committed to a public repository
and a personal `/home/<user>/...` path would silently fail for any
other operator or a remote/cloud agent that never reads this
operator's `$HOME` (preventive; no observed incident yet).
`idd-critique-telemetry` itself is expected to come from an
operator's own external tooling (this repository ships the
`idd-critique-telemetry-hook` resolver that invokes it, never the
collector binary itself), mirroring how `critiqueLoop.delegate`'s
configured command already points at an external, not-shipped-in-repo
binary. Per
[docs/idd-workflow.md](docs/idd-workflow.md#repository-configurable-critique-telemetry-hook)'s
fire-and-forget contract, an operator or remote/cloud agent without
that binary on `PATH` gets a silent no-op, the same as leaving the
hook unconfigured, rather than a failure.
- **Gist-retrospective field-feedback label**: this repository applies
the `feedback:idd-core` label to every "IDD loop field-feedback
intake" gist-retrospective roadmap (title beginning with `roadmap:
IDD loop field-feedback intake`) and every child issue linked from
its `## Tracks` list, at authoring time alongside the normal
`status:authoring` hold label. The label is visibility-only -- it
lets a maintainer find and review these issues with extra scrutiny,
since they originate from second-hand narrative gist material about
another repository rather than a locally reproduced observation --
and it must never gate Discover, Claim, or any other autopilot
phase. It is a distinct axis from the adopter-side
`status:upstream-candidate` label (roadmap `#2700`): that label
stays local to each adopter repository and is never applied in
`kurone-kito/idd-skill` itself; `feedback:idd-core` is the
source-repo-side counterpart applied once the maintainer has already
decided to report the observed problem here.
- **Adopt-now urgency defer**: This source repository also records
`critiqueLoop.deferByUrgency: "severity-tiered"` as a local IDD
dogfooding policy (applies only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`).
`low` and `low-and-medium` still never defer High.
`severity-tiered` scores urgency `very-low` < `low` < `medium` <
`high` and, below the first threshold, defers High only at
`very-low` (issue `#3589`). The gradient acts only when
`deferByUrgency` is `severity-tiered`. This repository opts in
with `critiqueLoop.deferRelaxAtRounds: [4, 7]`. Over the 100
merged pull requests numbered #3561 to #3781 (merged 2026-09-27
to 2026-10-05), the median PR-wide Copilot review count was 2,
and 30 reached a 4th review, 25 a 5th, 14 a 7th and 10 a 9th, so
the first threshold leaves a typical pull request unchanged and
the second acts only on the long tail. A follow-up filed by the
gradient carries the existing `review-fix-loop-cutoff` marker.
The motivating observation is
[kurone-kito/setup.ubuntu#201](https://github.com/kurone-kito/setup.ubuntu/issues/201).
The earlier opt-in was `low-and-medium` (issue `#3222`): a 60-PR
baseline (`#3089`-`#3210`) found all 11 Low-only reviews and 25
Medium-highest reviews followed by another Copilot review wave.
As of the 2026-09-24 observation,
`critiqueLoop.deferAfterRounds` (this repository's own local
`5`) had never fired because most review waves happened well
before that round threshold. A later count over the same #3561
to #3781 range found that 25 of 100 pull requests reached a 5th
Copilot review, and none of the 7 deferral replies in that range
carries a `round <r>/5` clause. See
[docs/idd-design-rationale.md](docs/idd-design-rationale.md#e4e5-adopt-now-urgency-defer)
for the baseline and the severity-tiered matrix.
- **GitHub API load control**: This source repository also records
`githubApi.loadControl: { enabled: true, maxConcurrent: 4 }` in
`.github/idd/config.json` as a local IDD dogfooding policy (applies
only to `kurone-kito/idd-skill`); `idd-template/` keeps the distributed
default off, so adopters are unchanged. Roadmap `#3583` dogfoods each
delivered capability here first, and this repository runs many
concurrent sessions as one OS user, the case the host-local admission
layer is for (motivating episode: the 2026-09-27 GraphQL rate-limit
report in issue `#3560`; most of the failing commands it lists were
typed by an agent, which load control does not cover). The value was
measured, not guessed (issue `#3702`, 2026-10-01): four parallel
`discover-roadmap-graph --all-roadmaps --with-claim-state
--with-readiness --with-progress --no-cache` scans (each at its own
`--concurrency` of 8) against a fresh state directory per row took, at
`maxConcurrent` 8, 4, 2 and 1, a slowest scan of 9.9, 14.5, 23.1 and
43.7 seconds, all sixteen scans exited 0 and none reported a `deadline`
interruption. The smallest value within twice the 8 row (19.8
seconds) is 4, so that is the cap; the full table is in the PR that
enabled it. Exposure: a write or unclassified request that meets a
full slot is refused at once with nothing sent, and a read that waits
out `maxWait` (`PT30S` by default) with every slot held is refused
too, which a scan reports as a `deadline` interruption; a standard
Discover scan, which passes no `--with-progress`, surfaces that
refusal as an error instead of a recovery result. To turn it off,
remove the `loadControl` entry or set `enabled` to `false`; a refused
request (`notDispatched`) in a real session is the signal to do so
(preventive; no observed incident yet).
See [docs/idd-helper-scripts.md](docs/idd-helper-scripts.md#github-api-load-control)
for the mechanism.
## Branch strategy
This project follows
[GitHub Flow](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/using-git/github-flow):
`main` is the only long-lived branch and every change reaches `main`
through a pull request.
### Rules
- **Never push directly to `main`** — all changes must go through a
pull request. Branch protection is enforced on GitHub.
- **Rebase onto `main` before publication** — before the first D-phase
push of a PR branch, rebase onto `main` as needed. Fetch first so the
local `main` is not stale, e.g.
`git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main`
(or `git pull --rebase origin main`). Do not create merge commits
inside unpublished feature branches.
- **Treat pushed PR branches as published review history** — after the
first D-phase push, branch-state checks stay read-only until a later
phase decides an update is required.
- **Default post-push sync: merge `main` into the PR branch** — when an
already-pushed branch needs synchronization or conflict resolution,
merge `main` into the PR branch and send that follow-up through the
normal CI and review gates. Do not rebase or force-push merely
because the PR is `BEHIND`. This is the active branch-policy
contract, enforced end to end by
`idd-review-triage.instructions.md`'s E-phase branch-sync check
(`Esync`), which uses the `branch-conflict-state` helper when
helper runtime is enabled.
- **Force-push exceptions stay narrow** — use rebase and
`--force-with-lease` after publication only when repository policy
explicitly permits it and merge-based recovery cannot safely fix the
branch, or when an already-started rebase must be completed or
aborted during recovery.
- **Rebase between unpublished feature branches** — if one unpublished
feature branch needs changes from another, use rebase, not merge.
- **Merge commits at PR boundary** — pull requests into `main` are
merged with a merge commit (squash-merge and rebase-merge are
disabled in the repository settings).
- **fixup + autosquash for unpublished in-branch fixes** — when a later
commit in an unpublished feature branch fixes an earlier one, prefer
`git commit --fixup=<sha>` followed by
`git rebase -i --autosquash` to fold the fix into its target.
- **Avoid giant commits** — if squashing would produce an
unreasonably large commit, keep the fix commit separate or
re-split the history so each commit remains reviewable.
## Commit rules
This project follows
[Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/).
A `.gitmessage` template is available at the repository root for
guidance when writing commit messages. Git does not use it
automatically, so contributors who want the template prefilled in
their editor should opt in once per clone:
```sh
git config commit.template .gitmessage
```
### Format
```txt
<type>[optional scope]: <user-facing description>
<body: address purpose, context, and what changed>
[optional footer(s)]
```
### Subject line
- Use the format: `<type>[optional scope]: <description>`
- Write from the **user's perspective** — briefly state what this
commit solves or improves for the end user or developer
- Write in **lowercase**, imperative mood (e.g., "add", not "added")
- Keep the subject line under **72 characters**
- Do **not** end with a period
### Types
Common types: `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `test`,
`chore`, `ci`, `build`, `perf`
### Scopes
- Optional, in parentheses: `feat(ci):`, `fix(lint):`, `docs(readme):`
- Keep scopes **lowercase**, short, and consistent
- Use the directory or component name that best describes the area
### Body (line 3+)
The body should address three aspects:
- **Why** — the purpose or motivation behind the change
- **Context** — what was needed, the situation or constraint
- **What changed** — the concrete action taken
Prefer the **why → context → change** order when practical.
Write these as **natural prose** — weave the aspects into
coherent sentences rather than using labeled sections. Labeled
sections (`Why:` / `Context:` / `Change:`) are acceptable only
when explicit paragraph separation improves clarity.
Omit any aspect whose information **cannot be reliably inferred**.
If the subject line is self-explanatory, the body may be omitted
entirely. **Breaking changes must always include a body.**
Wrap body lines at **72 characters**.
- **Avoid a bare `token:` line start**: a body line must not begin
with a single (optionally hyphenated) token immediately followed by
a colon and a space — for example a line starting `bullet: ...` or
`Step-1: ...`. `@commitlint/config-conventional`'s footer/trailer
parser misreads that shape as the start of a footer section, even
though it is ordinary prose deep in the body, and emits a spurious
`footer-leading-blank` warning — a **warning** under this
repository's current `.commitlintrc.yml`, not a blocking failure,
but still worth avoiding. This does not conflict with the `Why:` /
`Context:` / `Change:` labels above: each one only ever opens a
fresh, blank-line-separated paragraph, so the blank line already
required before it also satisfies `footer-leading-blank`; the trap
here is the same shape appearing **without** a preceding blank
line, buried mid-paragraph. Reword instead: lead with an article or
an extra word (for example "the bullet: ..." or "in step 1: ...")
so the line no longer opens with a bare token before the colon.
Observed 2026-09-12, live against this repository's own
`.commitlintrc.yml`, in commit
`bae5e0f1e43b54713f936af6f677773b684dd81e` (PR `#2942`, issue
`#2943`).
### Breaking changes
- Append `!` after the type/scope: `feat!: remove deprecated endpoint`
- Add a `BREAKING CHANGE:` trailer in the footer with a detailed
explanation of what breaks and migration steps
### Footers / trailers
- `Closes #<issue>` / `Refs #<issue>` — link to issues
- `Co-authored-by: Name <email>` — credit co-authors
- `BREAKING CHANGE: <description>` — detail the breaking change
### Atomic commits
Keep each commit as **small and focused** as possible:
- **One logical change per commit** — if the subject line needs "and",
consider splitting
- **Separate refactoring** from behavior changes
- **Separate formatting/style** changes from logic changes
- **Separate dependency updates** from code changes
- When in doubt, prefer smaller commits that are easy to review,
revert, and bisect
### Examples
#### Good — single-line (trivial change)
```txt
fix: correct typo in feature request template
```
#### Good — prose body
```txt
feat(ci): add concurrency settings to lint workflow
Parallel lint runs on the same branch waste resources and
cause race conditions in status checks. GitHub Actions
supports concurrency groups that automatically cancel
redundant runs, so add a concurrency group keyed on branch
name with cancel-in-progress enabled.
Refs #42
```
#### Good — breaking change
```txt
feat!: require node 20 as minimum version
Node 18 reached end-of-life in April 2025 and no longer
receives security updates, while the project now standardizes
on the active Node 20 LTS baseline. All production
environments have already been upgraded to node 20+, so
update the engines field and CI matrix to require node >= 20.
BREAKING CHANGE: drop support for node 16 and 18. Users
must upgrade to node 20 or later.
Closes #108
```
#### Bad — vague, developer-centric
```txt
fix: update code
```
#### Bad — too large / non-atomic
```txt
feat: add auth system and refactor database layer and update docs
```
## For IDD work
Open `.github/instructions/idd-overview-core.instructions.md` and the
relevant phase file before starting work. See
[docs/idd-workflow.md](docs/idd-workflow.md) for the cross-agent
entry path and phase routing. See
[Model capability expectations](docs/idd-workflow.md#model-capability-expectations)
before running this loop on a lightweight local or compact cloud model.
## Dogfood: token-cost events
This source repository records IDD phase-boundary timestamps as a local
dogfooding measurement (`docs/token-cost.md`). Source-repo only — never
add this call to `idd-template/` or `.github/instructions/` phase files,
which distribute to adopters with no token-cost data to record.
When running the IDD loop in this repository, call
```sh
node scripts/token-cost-event.mjs --stage <id> --enter --vendor <v> --issue <n>
```
when a listed stage starts, and the same with `--exit` when it ends,
using `--vendor codex` for Codex CLI or `--vendor grok` for Grok Build.
Include `--issue <n>` on every call from `claim` onward, once an issue
is claimed — omit it only for `discover`, which precedes any claim. A
call with no `--issue` is unusable for per-issue attribution (#2418):
the harvester can only join it back to an issue when the number is
recorded on the event itself. Also include `--claim-id <claim-id>` —
the active IDD `{claim-id}` — on every call from `claim` onward: it is
the positive-evidence signal a later harvest uses to merge a genuine
cross-session handoff/resume of the same claim lineage instead of
undercounting it (#2432). OpenCode and Cursor CLI have no matching
`vendor` value in `schemas/token-cost-event.schema.json` yet — skip
this call rather than pass a mismatched vendor. Stage ids: `discover`,
`claim`, `work`, `submit-pr`, `review`, `merge`, `cleanup`. Ignore any
failure from this command — it must never block or slow the IDD loop.
## Issue-authoring skill (dogfooded)
The canonical issue-authoring skill bundle lives at
`skills/issue-authoring/`. Edit the canonical bundle, never a
generated copy: `node scripts/sync-docs.mjs --apply` regenerates
derived copies and `node scripts/audit-docs.mjs --check` fails on
drift. The `idd-spec-audit` skill bundle at `skills/idd-spec-audit/`
follows the same rule: `.claude/skills/idd-spec-audit/` is likewise a
generated mirror and must never be edited directly.
## Codex issue-authoring route
For Codex CLI, read the canonical issue-authoring bundle explicitly from
`skills/issue-authoring/`, or install one selected copy under
`.agents/skills/issue-authoring/` when the target runtime supports native
skill discovery there. The existing `.claude/skills/issue-authoring/` copy is
the dogfood route for Claude Code, OpenCode, Grok Build, and Cursor CLI
compatibility; it is not the
canonical source. Do not add checked-in `.agents/skills/`,
`.cursor/skills/`, or `.opencode/skills/` mirrors by default
(preventive; no observed incident yet),
and do not assume the source path is automatically discovered by Codex.
