| Code conventions for codebases written, reviewed, and maintained by humans |
| and coding agents together. The guiding rule: prefer the form that reads |
| like a plain statement of intent; reach for shorthand only when it makes |
| the intent clearer, never just shorter. Covers the token-window rationale, |
| naming doctrine, process managers, feature stories, edit-level style, and |
| control flow (CF-1 through CF-11), with before/after Crystal examples, a |
| machine-checkable end-of-edit checklist, and a small-model comprehension |
| benchmark. |
