# Agent context map

Read the row for your task before editing. For a cross-domain change, read each
affected contract. This is navigation, not a request to load every linked file.
Common constraints remain in [AGENTS.md](../../AGENTS.md); Claude imports it.
Repository skill frontmatter defines triggers. If your client does not discover
a listed skill automatically, read its SKILL.md directly. Optional global tools
are not prerequisites for reading repository contracts.

## Maintenance rules

Keep unique behavior contracts in the authoritative document, procedures in a
skill or development guide, and universal constraints in AGENTS.md. Update this
map when ownership or a canonical destination changes. Preserve release skill
mirrors; do not create extra copies of other contracts for individual agents.
Use normal Markdown links for document destinations so `pnpm run agents:validate`
can check them. Do not add root imports for the linked documents.

The [migration ledger](agent-guidance-migration.md) explains how the original
root instructions were accounted for. It is historical audit evidence, not
another source of current runtime policy or required task context.
