trigger: edits without reading, unverified completion claims, weakened tests, dead code. avoid: skipping verification, deleting assertions, leaving unused code.

trigger: context bloat, stale observations, resolved content inlined, noisy exploration. avoid: context rot and lost-in-the-middle failures.

trigger: repeated mistakes, rediscovered patterns, preferences, non-derivable facts. avoid: persisting file contents, git history, or task intermediates as memory.

Block direct commits and pushes to main or master. Enforced at commit time by reading the current branch, and at push time by parsing the refs the agent is pushing.

trigger: large command output, broad searches, re-reading unchanged files, front-loading references. avoid: wasting context window on low-signal content.
