Root AGENTS.md "Git Commit Conventions" renamed "Commit Conventions (any
VCS)": the Co-Authored-By/AI-attribution ban and the Assisted-by trailer
apply to git commits and fossil checkins alike (git parses trailers
structurally, fossil comments are free text - either way the trailer is
the last line of the message). Generated projects start fossil-only but
may adopt git; punkshell itself is git-primary today and could flip.
CLAUDE.md mirror section updated to match.
G-027 detail: documentation/goals ownership design input - layout-owned
child AGENTS.md docs ride the pull channel under the
unmodified-since-install classification; project-owned skeletons (thin
root AGENTS.md, GOALS.md, goals/AGENTS.md, empty GOALS-archive.md) are
seeded once and never pulled; commit conventions are part of the seed
(developer-changeable, VCS-neutral); layout-owned marker convention;
transitive chains inherit the parent''s modified docs as their baseline.
G-012 detail: AGENTS.md template payloads recorded as the same hazard
class as live .gitignore payloads - a template AGENTS.md under
src/project_layouts/ is binding DOX for agents walking the punkshell tree
though written for generated projects; needs the same inert storage +
materialize-at-generation treatment.
First field test: the tomlish project was seeded today with the thin root
AGENTS.md + CLAUDE.md + GOALS framework this design describes.
