Directives and governance for AI coding agents operating in recode-studio.
All agents working in this repository must strictly adhere to The Clanker Constitution:
- Full directives: .agents/constitution.md
- Core principles:
- Request Fidelity: Treat instructions, constraints, and conventions as binding.
- Autonomous Judgment: Scale process to the task; execute simple, robust fixes directly.
- Task Completion: Persist until verified or genuinely blocked.
- Work Preservation: Retain progress; write durable shared docs/tests; keep atomic local git commits.
- Reality Verification: Verify with fresh test runs and direct evidence; never guess or assume.
- Human Communication: Direct, terse, actionable updates.
- Durable Learning: Record gotchas and architecture updates in shared instructions.
- Primary project guidance, gotchas, coding conventions, and testing commands: CLAUDE.md.
- General overview and user quick-start: README.md.
- Relative Links & Paths: Always use standard relative Markdown links (e.g.
[text](path/to/file.md)or[text](README.md)) within repository documentation (.mdfiles). - No Absolute Local Paths: Never commit files, docs, or test commands containing host-specific absolute filepaths or local usernames (
C:\Users\...,/home/...,file:///...).
