I think most of this trial and error "You are an experienced engineer" stuff probably hurts model performance. No one ever does comprehensive testing so eh, yolo.

There are papers showing that models follow instructions less the more instructions they have. Now you think about how many instructions are embedded in that MD + the system prompt + likely a local AGENTS.md and at the end there is probably very little here that matters.
