Update AGENTS.md and scripts for global dependency installation

- Revise instructions in AGENTS.md to clarify that Python scripts should be run via `startup.sh`, which now installs dependencies globally.
- Enhance project overview and command sections for better clarity on usage.
- Update coding standards to reflect Python version requirements and Bash script practices.
- Improve formatting and organization of command examples for better readability.

## Project Overview
This repository, **python\_charts**, provides a framework for fetching economic time series from FRED, storing them locally, and producing custom matplotlib charts with configurable parameters. The core components are:
* **`startup.sh`**: Single-entrypoint script to bootstrap a Python venv, install dependencies, fetch data, and run specified commands under the venv interpreter.
* **`Makefile`**: Convenient high-level targets (`install`, `data`, `plot`, `plot-custom`, `test`, `clean`) that funnel through `startup.sh` for reproducible builds.
* **`startup.sh`**: Single‐entrypoint script to install dependencies globally, fetch data, and run specified commands under system Python.
* **`Makefile`**: Convenient high‐level targets (`install`, `data`, `plot`, `plot‐custom`, `test`, `clean`) that funnel through `startup.sh` for reproducible builds.
* **`scripts/refresh_data.py`**: Downloads UNRATE and DCOILWTICO series into `data/fred.db`.
* **`scripts/lagged_oil_unrate_chart_styled.py`**: Generates the lagged oil vs. unemployment chart with fixed axes styling and log scale.

### Primary Commands
* **Bootstrap & default plot**: `./startup.sh` or `make plot` — runs the lagged-oil chart with an 18‑month offset.
* **Custom plot**: `./startup.sh --offset 12 --end 2025-05-31 --extend-years 5` or `make plot-custom ARGS="--offset 12 --end 2025-05-31 --extend-years 5"`.
* **Data refresh**: `./startup.sh scripts/refresh_data.py` or `make data`.
* **Run tests**: `./startup.sh pytest -q` or `make test`.
* **Bootstrap & default plot**:
```bash
./startup.sh
```
Installs/upgrades dependencies globally and runs the default lagged‐oil chart with an 18-month offset.
* **Custom plot**:
```bash
./startup.sh --offset 12 --end 2025-05-31 --extend-years 5
```
* **Data refresh**:
```bash
./startup.sh scripts/refresh_data.py
```
* **Run tests**:
```bash
./startup.sh pytest -q
```
### Argument Rules
* Arguments beginning with `--` are forwarded to the default chart script.
* If the first token is a `.py` script or executable, it is invoked under the venv’s Python.
* Otherwise, commands are executed directly (e.g. linters, test frameworks).
* If the first token starts with `--`, it’s forwarded to the default chart script.
* If the first token names a `.py` script, it’s executed via `python <script>`.
* Otherwise, commands are executed directly (e.g., `pytest`, `flake8`).
## Coding Standards
* **Python**: Target version 3.12. Use type hints for all function signatures. Follow PEP8 with **Black** formatting.
* **Bash**: `startup.sh` must use `set -euo pipefail` and always call `$VENV_DIR/bin/python` to avoid system‑Python mismatches.
* **Makefile**: Use tab‑indented commands. All tasks should funnel to `startup.sh`.
* **Python**: Target version ≥ 3.8. Use type hints for all function signatures. Follow PEP8 with Black formatting.
* **Bash**: `startup.sh` uses `set -euo pipefail`.
* **Makefile**: Use tab‐indented commands. All targets should funnel through `startup.sh`.
## Testing & Validation
* **Automated tests**: No current tests; add pytest modules under `tests/` following the pattern `test_*.py`.
* **Automated tests**: Add pytest modules under `tests/` following the pattern `test_*.py`.
* **Data mocking**: For new chart scripts, mock FRED downloads via monkeypatching `pandas_datareader.data.DataReader`.
## Extending with New Charts
1. **Create a new script** under `scripts/`, for example `scripts/custom_chart.py`.
2. **Implement** a `main()` accepting `--start`, `--end`, `--offset` or custom args using `argparse`.
3. **Leverage** `startup.sh` invocation: add usage example in your script’s docstring.
4. **Update** the `Makefile` if you need a dedicated target, otherwise users can call:
1. **Create** `scripts/custom_chart.py`.
2. **Implement** a `main()` with `argparse` for `--start`, `--end`, `--offset`, etc.
3. **Invoke** via:
```bash
./startup.sh python scripts/custom_chart.py --your-args
```
4. **Optionally** add a Makefile target if desired.
## CI / Codex Integration
* In Codex cloud or CLI tasks, set the **Setup Script** to `./startup.sh install data` to ensure dependencies and data are ready.
* **Task Commands** should call `make plot` or `make test`, which delegates to `startup.sh`.
* **AGENTS.md** is automatically loaded by Codex to understand structure and commands.
* **Setup Script** →
## PR & Commit Guidelines
```bash
chmod +x startup.sh && ./startup.sh
```
* **Task Command** →
* Prefix branches/PRs with `feature/` or `fix/`.
* Commit messages: `<type>(<scope>): <description>` (e.g. `feat(charts): add custom inflation plot`).
* Include screenshots or saved chart outputs under `outputs/` for visual verification.

# Lagged Oil–Unemployment Chart
# Python Charts
A self-contained toolkit that:
This initial chart is a self-contained toolkit that:
* Fetches U.S. unemployment rate (UNRATE) and WTI crude oil price (DCOILWTICO) from FRED
* Stores the series in a local SQLite database (`data/fred.db`)
* Produces a dual-axis plot of unemployment vs. lagged oil price, with customizable lag, date range, and styling

## 🛠️ Installation & Setup
1. **Ensure** you have Python 3.8+ installed on your system.
2. **Clone** and navigate into the project:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/your-org/python_charts.git
cd python_charts
