# Agent Instructions
## User Overrides (Optional)
If `~/AGENTS.md` exists and is readable, load it and apply it as a
user-specific overlay for this session. If it cannot be read, say so
briefly and continue.
## Canonical Standards
This repository follows the canonical standards and conventions in the
`standards-and-conventions` repository.
Resolve the local path (preferred):
- `../standards-and-conventions`
If the local path is unavailable, use the canonical web source:
- <https://github.com/wphillipmoore/standards-and-conventions>
If the canonical standards cannot be retrieved, treat it as a fatal
exception and stop.
## Shared Skills
Replace `<standards-repo-path>` with the resolved local path when available.
- Load all skills from: `<standards-repo-path>/skills/**/SKILL.md`
- Treat every skill found under that directory as available and active.
## Local Overrides
None.
