## 1. Context Window & Token Boundary Rules (-58% Discovery Token Bloat)
- **Excluded Discovery Paths (NEVER read, index, or grep)**: `_build/, deps/, mix.lock, cover/, priv/static/assets/`
- Before reading any file > 300 lines, query symbol definitions or line ranges first.
- Keep per-turn prompt context <= **14,313 tokens** (down from 34,080 unindexed tokens/turn; saves ~$230.63/mo).
- Keep every source file strictly under 1,000 lines.

## 2. Elixir Architecture, Schema Boundary & Verification Gate for Analytics
- **Verification Command**: Run `mix test && mix credo --strict` after every contiguous code edit.
- **Schema & Boundary Discipline**: Ecto.Changeset strict cast/validate + Dialyzer typespec verification.
- Never hardcode API keys, bearer tokens, or `.env` secrets in source files or test fixtures.
