-- Keep design discussion and shared decisions in the main conversation. Discuss
-  two to four related choices with evidence, a recommendation, and alternatives.
-  Ask before changes to architecture, terminology, ownership, dependencies,
-  persistent data, user-visible behavior, or durable workflows. Implement routine
-  consequences of an accepted batch without repeated confirmation.
-- Use subagents only for bounded, independent work when coverage or context benefits
-  justify it. No fixed team or delegation pattern is required.
-- The pass covers existing or clearly intended capabilities. Consult relevant parts
-  of `~/sync/notes/setup-todo.md` as evidence, not authorization or a backlog.
-  Do not edit that note without an explicit request.
 - Preserve unrelated changes. Coherent local commits are allowed for agreed batches.
   Do not push or make other remote changes without explicit approval. System
   activation remains user-owned.
