From 69c1c9f8fe6fcdcd92fad5e0a5479fac808e8710 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "vsits-proxy-builder[bot]" <279815601+vsits-proxy-builder[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 21:32:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] docs(agents): cut two paragraphs that restate what the rules already bind MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Follow-up to #300, per Chris. Grok (round 5, third model family, no repo access) read the added text as mostly incident narration and would have cut ~100 lines; Codex (round 4, with repo access) said the length buys concrete counterexamples. Both named the same two passages as first removable, so those are what this cuts. - "The failure is not that the fact was hidden..." — the Bun/BoringSSL example directly above it already carries the lesson. - "When several reviewers are on one PR..." — meta-commentary rather than rule text; the three class bullets bind on their own. Also compressed the "We were not careless" narration to third person, keeping the 0.88 ms / 5,000 iterations measurement and the actionable shape ("verifying the checkable parts and reasoning about the deciding part"). The cut is bounded by a rule, not a line target: remove only text whose removal drops no verifiable claim. Auditing this diff caught the compression silently dropping both measured numbers on its first pass; they are restored. Kept the #296 CI timestamp table Grok would have cut — it is the only falsifiable evidence the CI rule has, and without it the rule is an assertion. -8 lines. The larger cut Grok proposed is not taken: an estimate made without repo access is not a basis for removing text three rounds of review verified. --- AGENTS.md | 10 ++-------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/AGENTS.md b/AGENTS.md index 338213eb..bcf8255e 100644 --- a/AGENTS.md +++ b/AGENTS.md @@ -201,9 +201,6 @@ Two consequences worth internalizing: design were one command each; run on day one they would have prevented most of five review rounds. -When several reviewers are on one PR, the classes are what make their -findings cheap to reconcile — *Measured* from one and *Read* from -another on the same point is a signal, not a contradiction. ## Predicates That Predict Another Program @@ -254,8 +251,8 @@ both reproduce on `main`: passes, while node's loader skips any block not labelled exactly `CERTIFICATE`. -We were not careless.
