Maestro Token Efficiency

Use this skill for Maestro repo changes that affect agent context, instruction loading, benchmark search hygiene, or Codex behavior.

1. Read docs/agent-map.md first for navigation.
2. Prefer benchmark summary files over raw streams unless doing forensic scoring. Use rg --no-ignore for raw stream audits.
3. Preserve Maestro's quality bar: no weaker verification status, no hidden-oracle exposure, and no default behavior change without benchmark evidence.
4. For Codex-specific behavior, check docs/codex.md and current official Codex docs before changing durable guidance.
5. Keep always-loaded instruction files stable. Put volatile run notes, dated scratch state, machine-local paths, and benchmark deltas in summaries or checkpoints, not AGENTS.md/adapters.
