AGENTS.md had grown to duplicate content owned elsewhere: behavioral
rules already active globally via ~/.agents/AGENTS.md, a VISION.md
read-on-demand entry CONTEXT.md already covers at session start, and
setup/testing/commit instructions that explained hook mechanics the
git plugin's pc-run/git-commits skills already own. It also gave no
explicit steer toward using installed plugin skills over raw shell
commands, so agents defaulted to shelling out to git directly.
- Added a "Prefer plugin skills over raw shell" section mapping
operations (commits, branches, hooks, issues/PRs, linting, AGENTS.md
itself) to the skill that owns them.
- Collapsed Setup/Testing/Commit-conventions into one section, keeping
only the two genuinely non-obvious gotchas (missing
default_install_hook_types, bats submodule auto-init).
- Removed the "Subagent orchestration" section: its content was mostly
universal Agent/Task/worktree-tool facts, not specific to working in
this repo, so it moves to core/instructions/subagent-orchestration.md
(deployed globally via install.sh, referenced from core/AGENTS.md's
content index) rather than staying repo-local.
- Removed agentsmd-author's "not this repo's own" scope exclusion in
CONTEXT.md (ADR-0012 never mandated it) so this task could route
through it, and folded the forge-routing rule it left behind into
CONTEXT.md's existing Skill composition entry.
AGENTS.md: 50 -> 40 lines. Full test suite and manifest check pass.
