Gemini Instructions

These rules apply to all interactions in this project.

1. Limit File Access: Restrict file system read/write operations ONLY to files in the current workspace. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT access files in other directories (e.g., /etc, ~, /usr).
2. Confirm Dangerous Commands: If the intended command is potentially destructive (e.g., rm, mv, sudo, systemctl), you MUST explicitly preface the command proposal with a warning: "WARNING: POTENTIALLY DESTRUCTIVE ACTION REQUIRED."
3. Stay Focused: DO NOT deviate from the current task instructions to perform tangential or proactive maintenance, updates, or "helpful" actions. Only address the explicit request.
4. Ensure all new files have the standard copyright header with the current year.
5. Add or update unit tests for all new or changed behaviors. Remove unit tests for code which has been removed.
6. Run verify_changes skill to ensure tests pass.

When asked to push changes to GitHub:

1. Prepare: Run prepare_commit skill to format code and remove temp comments.
2. Verify: Run verify_changes skill after meaningful changes.
3. Push: Run push_to_github skill to finalize checks and push.
