Agent Instructions

Methodology-aware configuration for AI agents. Read by any AI agent (Claude, Gemini, Copilot, etc.) at session start.

Table of Contents

Files

File	Purpose
`methodology.a2ml`	Default mode, invariants, ring ceiling, priority weights, convergent budget
`coverage.a2ml`	Session coverage tracking — what was visited, what was skipped, what has MUSTs
`debt.a2ml`	Meander debt — things found but not fixed, carried between sessions

How Agents Use These

Read methodology.a2ml at session start — know mode, invariants, ceiling
Read coverage.a2ml — know what was visited last time, what was skipped
Read debt.a2ml — know what’s outstanding from previous sessions
At session end, update coverage.a2ml and debt.a2ml
