## 1. Context Window & Token Boundary Rules (-58% Discovery Token Bloat)
- **Excluded Discovery Paths (NEVER read, index, or grep)**: `node_modules/, .next/, dist/, build/, coverage/, pnpm-lock.yaml, package-lock.json`
- Before reading any file > 300 lines, query symbol definitions or line ranges first.
- Keep per-turn prompt context <= **26,880 tokens** (down from 64,000 unindexed tokens/turn; saves ~$433.11/mo).
- Keep every source file strictly under 1,000 lines.

## 2. TypeScript Architecture, Schema Boundary & Verification Gate for Copilotkit
- **Verification Command**: Run `pnpm test --run && npx tsc --noEmit` after every contiguous code edit.
- **Schema & Boundary Discipline**: Zod strict-mode schema parsing + TypeScript noUncheckedIndexedAccess.
- Never hardcode API keys, bearer tokens, or `.env` secrets in source files or test fixtures.
