# Agent rules for this repo

- Dev: `python -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -e '.[dev]' && .venv/bin/pytest`.
- Style: exact, minimal diffs. Prefer editing existing files over creating new ones.
- NEVER use em dashes (U+2014) anywhere: not in code, docs, comments, commit
  messages, or chat output. Use a hyphen, comma, or colon instead.
- Verify through execution: run the suite after behavior changes.
- Destructive endpoints stay dry-run by default, date-guarded where remote
  data is at stake, and scoped to the claimed directory or allowed roots.
