# instructions-files-diet

Trim per-turn agent context weight by lifting pedagogical narrative from
`AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, and `.claude/rules/**` to `docs/governance/`.
The contract retains binding bullets and one-line pointers; pedagogy
becomes reachable on demand, not loaded per-turn.

- **Lane:** Lite
- **Theme:** Instructions & memory files diet + progressive disclosure
- **Origin:** GHI #327

This is a narrative trim, never an invariant relaxation
(`AGENTS.md` § Anti-vibing mantra operative claim 2 — *"lighter ceremony
is not a tradeoff axis"*). Every Mechanical / Promotable bullet on the
advisory scorecard remains in the per-turn contract.
