Consolidate agent docs into TORCH.md and update installer
- Merged AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and src/docs/TORCH.md into a single TORCH.md in the root. - Updated src/ops.mjs to copy TORCH.md during init/update and correctly transform path references. - Updated src/prompts/META_PROMPTS.md and src/prompts/scheduler-flow.md to reference TORCH.md. - Deleted obsolete AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and src/docs/TORCH.md.

# AGENTS.md — Repository-Agnostic Agent Operating Guide
|
||||
|
||||
This file defines how agents should work in this repository **before any project-specific customization exists**.
|
||||
|
||||
## Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
- Keep agent work predictable, auditable, and safe.
|
||||
- Minimize repeated discovery work across sessions.
|
||||
- Capture durable learnings so future agents can move faster.
|
||||
|
||||
## Session startup checklist (run every session)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Read `AGENTS.md`.
|
||||
2. Read `CLAUDE.md` for execution workflow details.
|
||||
3. Read `CONTRIBUTING.md` for commit and PR expectations.
|
||||
4. Read `KNOWN_ISSUES.md` for active blockers and workarounds.
|
||||
5. Read `docs/agent-handoffs/README.md`.
|
||||
6. Scan recent notes in:
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/learnings/`
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/incidents/`
|
||||
7. If present, review the current run artifacts in:
|
||||
- `src/context/`
|
||||
- `src/todo/`
|
||||
- `src/decisions/`
|
||||
- `src/test_logs/`
|
||||
- `src/issues/`
|
||||
|
||||
## Core operating principles
|
||||
|
||||
- Default to generic guidance and neutral language.
|
||||
- Make the smallest safe change that satisfies the request.
|
||||
- Avoid unrelated refactors.
|
||||
- Preserve backward compatibility unless explicitly asked otherwise.
|
||||
- Prefer explicit commands and documented behavior over assumptions.
|
||||
- Record assumptions clearly in your final summary.
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation policy
|
||||
|
||||
- Run the most relevant checks for changed files (tests, lint, typecheck, build, or targeted scripts).
|
||||
- Never claim a check passed unless it was actually executed.
|
||||
- If a check cannot run, record:
|
||||
- command attempted,
|
||||
- why it could not complete,
|
||||
- what fallback validation was performed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Knowledge-sharing protocol
|
||||
|
||||
### What belongs where
|
||||
|
||||
- `KNOWN_ISSUES.md`
|
||||
- Active, reproducible issues only.
|
||||
- Include status, impact, workaround, and last verification date.
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/learnings/`
|
||||
- Proven patterns, repeatable fixes, and successful implementation guidance.
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/incidents/`
|
||||
- Failures, root causes, mitigations, and prevention guidance.
|
||||
- `src/context/`
|
||||
- Snapshot of current task context (goal, scope, constraints).
|
||||
- `src/todo/`
|
||||
- Actionable checklist for in-progress work.
|
||||
- `src/decisions/`
|
||||
- Key implementation decisions and rationale.
|
||||
- `src/test_logs/`
|
||||
- Commands run and their outcomes.
|
||||
- `src/issues/`
|
||||
- One-off investigative or audit outputs not yet promoted to `KNOWN_ISSUES.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming standard (generic)
|
||||
|
||||
Use: `YYYY-MM-DD-short-topic.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
- `2026-02-14-validation-before-summary.md`
|
||||
- `2026-02-14-missing-baseline-context.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Naming rules:
|
||||
|
||||
- Keep names concise and descriptive.
|
||||
- Avoid company, product, team, customer, and environment names.
|
||||
- Prefer neutral technical terms.
|
||||
|
||||
### Required sections for reusable notes
|
||||
|
||||
Use these headings in learning/incident notes:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Context
|
||||
2. Observation
|
||||
3. Action taken
|
||||
4. Validation performed
|
||||
5. Recommendation for next agents
|
||||
|
||||
### Update decision tree
|
||||
|
||||
When you discover reusable context:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check if an existing note already covers it.
|
||||
2. If yes, update that note.
|
||||
3. If no, add a new note in `learnings/` or `incidents/`.
|
||||
4. If the issue is still active/reproducible, add or update `KNOWN_ISSUES.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Priority order when guidance conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
1. System/developer/user instructions in the active session
|
||||
2. `AGENTS.md`
|
||||
3. `CLAUDE.md`
|
||||
4. `CONTRIBUTING.md`
|
||||
5. Inline code comments and prompt templates
|
||||
|
||||
## Keep this file generic
|
||||
|
||||
Only add project-specific details after they are truly needed and explicitly labeled as repository-specific.

# CLAUDE.md — Generic Agent Execution Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
This guide defines an execution flow that works across repositories and tech stacks.
|
||||
|
||||
## Default workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Load baseline context**
|
||||
- `AGENTS.md`
|
||||
- `CONTRIBUTING.md`
|
||||
- `KNOWN_ISSUES.md`
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/README.md`
|
||||
- Recent notes in `docs/agent-handoffs/learnings/` and `docs/agent-handoffs/incidents/`
|
||||
2. **Clarify the task**
|
||||
- Restate the requested outcome.
|
||||
- Identify constraints, risks, and assumptions.
|
||||
3. **Plan minimal changes**
|
||||
- Keep scope tight.
|
||||
- Avoid touching unrelated files.
|
||||
4. **Implement**
|
||||
- Apply small, reversible edits.
|
||||
- Favor readability and maintainability.
|
||||
5. **Validate**
|
||||
- Run relevant checks for impacted files.
|
||||
- Capture exact commands and outcomes.
|
||||
6. **Document and hand off**
|
||||
- Summarize what changed and why.
|
||||
- Record reusable learnings/incidents when appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Working files for session state
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following folders as lightweight coordination artifacts:
|
||||
|
||||
- `src/context/` — Current objective, scope, constraints.
|
||||
- `src/todo/` — Task checklist and blockers.
|
||||
- `src/decisions/` — Important design/implementation choices.
|
||||
- `src/test_logs/` — Validation commands and results.
|
||||
- `src/issues/` — Investigations or audits that may become tracked issues.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended content templates
|
||||
|
||||
#### Context note template
|
||||
|
||||
- Goal
|
||||
- Scope
|
||||
- Constraints
|
||||
- Open questions
|
||||
|
||||
#### Todo note template
|
||||
|
||||
- Pending tasks
|
||||
- Completed tasks
|
||||
- Blocked tasks
|
||||
|
||||
#### Decision note template
|
||||
|
||||
- Decision
|
||||
- Alternatives considered
|
||||
- Rationale
|
||||
- Consequences/follow-ups
|
||||
|
||||
#### Test log template
|
||||
|
||||
- Command
|
||||
- Result (pass/fail/warn)
|
||||
- Notes (environmental limits, retries, artifacts)
|
||||
|
||||
## Knowledge-sharing protocol
|
||||
|
||||
### Where to write durable knowledge
|
||||
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/learnings/` for reusable successes.
|
||||
- `docs/agent-handoffs/incidents/` for failures and mitigations.
|
||||
- `KNOWN_ISSUES.md` for active, reproducible unresolved issues.
|
||||
|
||||
### File naming
|
||||
|
||||
Use `YYYY-MM-DD-short-topic.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Required structure for learning/incident notes
|
||||
|
||||
1. Context
|
||||
2. Observation
|
||||
3. Action taken
|
||||
4. Validation performed
|
||||
5. Recommendation for next agents
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality checklist before completion
|
||||
|
||||
- Scope matches request.
|
||||
- Documentation remains repository-agnostic unless explicitly needed.
|
||||
- No unsupported claims about testing.
|
||||
- Assumptions and limitations are called out.
|
||||
- Changes are easy to revert.
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-patterns to avoid
|
||||
|
||||
- Embedding product/company-specific guidance in baseline docs.
|
||||
- Large refactors when a focused change is sufficient.
|
||||
- Skipping validation without recording why.
|
||||
- Creating duplicate notes when an update would suffice.
|
||||
|
||||
## Customization policy
|
||||
|
||||
This file should stay generic until real repository-specific patterns emerge. When customizing:
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a clearly labeled section: `Repository-specific overrides`.
|
||||
- Keep generic workflow unchanged.
|
||||
- Include evidence (commands, failures, repeated incidents) for each override.
