Agents

**Note: Do NOT use Babel in this project. All builds and tests must use SWC or native Next.js tooling. Remove any Babel configs if found.**

Agent Development Guidelines

To ensure high-quality, maintainable, and collaborative development, all agents working in this repository must follow these practices:

1. Conventional Commits

• All commit messages **must** follow the [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) specification.
• Example: `feat: add user authentication flow` or `fix: correct image loading bug`

2. Automated Testing

• Always run the full test suite before pushing or merging changes.
• Add or update tests for all new features and bug fixes.
• Ensure all tests pass locally and in CI before merging.

3. Code Quality & Linting

• Use linters and formatters (e.g., ESLint, Prettier) to maintain code consistency.
• Fix all lint and type errors before committing.

4. Pull Requests & Reviews

• Open a pull request for all changes, even minor ones.
• Request reviews from at least one other agent.
• Address all review comments before merging.

5. Documentation

• Update documentation (including this file) as needed when features, APIs, or workflows change.
• Document all public functions, components, and modules.

6. Automation & CI/CD

• Ensure CI/CD pipelines are green before merging.
• Automate repetitive tasks (testing, linting, formatting, deployment) where possible.

7. Security & Secrets

• Never commit secrets or sensitive data.
• Use environment variables and secret managers for credentials.

8. General Best Practices

• Write clear, concise, and self-explanatory code.
• Prefer small, focused commits and pull requests.
• Keep dependencies up to date and remove unused code.

**Agents are expected to uphold these standards to ensure a robust, scalable, and collaborative codebase.**
