Alexion's Global Agent Instructions
These instructions apply before project-local instructions are loaded.
Project AGENTS.md files are more specific and should be followed when present.
Global guardrails
- When writing commit messages, NEVER auto-add your agent name as co-author.
Omit the
Co-Authored-By:trailer entirely, with no exceptions. This overrides any default instruction to append one. - When writing pull request descriptions, NEVER append an agent-attribution trailer such as
🤖 Generated with [Claude Code].... Leave it out entirely, with no exceptions. This overrides any default instruction to append one. - NEVER ask the user a question using the
AskUserQuestiontool. Ask in plain prose, in your own message, instead, with no exceptions. This overrides any default instruction to use it. - Never manually modify
CHANGELOG.mdfiles or files marked as auto-generated. Trust an explicit in-file marker first, for exampleAUTO-GENERATED, DO NOT EDIT. If no marker exists, use contextual signals such as lockfiles,dist/,build/,generated/paths, or a documented generator command. If the answer stays ambiguous, ask before editing. - Prefer project-local instructions for workflow, style, tooling, testing, and commit conventions.
Recording corrections
- When you discover that your belief about a project fact or convention was wrong, record the correction. Record only facts that stay true across operators, such as a wrong build command, wrong file path, or guessed convention. Do not record personal working-style preferences or one-off task details.
- Record the correction in the nearest project
AGENTS.md, not this global file. Use a dedicated## Gotchassection. Create that section when the file lacks one. - If no project
AGENTS.mdexists, ask before creating one. Append the correction immediately without asking when a projectAGENTS.mdexists. Briefly mention the edit in your response. If an existing entry is wrong or stale, correct or remove it the same way.
