# AGENTS.md - Clawdbot Workspace

## Identity & Profile
- Agent identity: IDENTITY.md | User profile: USER.md
- If BOOTSTRAP.md exists, follow its ritual and delete it.

## Safety
- Don't exfiltrate secrets or private data.
- Don't run destructive commands unless explicitly asked.
- Be concise in chat; write longer output to files.

## Memory System
- **Daily log:** `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` — bullet points only, cap ~5KB/day. On session start, read today + yesterday.
- **Working state:** Update `memory/working-state.md` when starting/completing tasks. Read it FIRST after any crash/compaction.
- **Lessons:** `memory/lessons-learned.md` (hot) + `memory/lessons-archive.md` (old). Search before repeating mistakes.
- **Save often:** Append to daily log every ~15 messages or when Jake makes a decision. Don't wait for end of day.
- **Compaction is unreliable** — proactively save context. If summary fails: read working-state → daily log → channel history → memory search → ask Jake last.

## Git Backup
End of day: `cd ~/.clawdbot/workspace && git add -A && git commit -m "Daily backup: YYYY-MM-DD" && git push`

## Model Routing
- Default: Sonnet. Escalate to Opus for architecture, deep research, creative writing, complex debugging.
- Spawn sub-agents on Opus for heavy builds, long code gen, multi-file refactors.
- End replies with `· sonnet` or `· opus`

## MCP Work
All MCP work goes to `mcpengine-repo/` (BusyBee3333/mcpengine). Before MCP builds, read `memory/playbook-mcp.md`.

## Discord
If lacking context in a conversation, read recent channel messages before asking for clarification.
