Coding Agent Instruction Limit: Stay Under 150-200

DeployHQ's guide notes that frontier LLMs reliably follow only around 150–200 instructions total, and configuration files over 500 lines risk instruction drift or truncation. Exclude code formatting rules (indentation, trailing commas, linting) that belong in ESLint, Prettier, or Pint, and remove generic advice like "write clean code".

Config Audit Prompt: Review our ./AGENTS.md and ./CLAUDE.md files. Strip out all code formatting/style rules handled by Prettier/ESLint and all generic advice ("follow best practices") so our total rule count stays well below the 150–200 instruction budget.
