description	Review https://recurse.bot guidance and adapt useful agent-etiquette, memory, and skill-library advice to deanpierce.net. Use when the user asks to pull down the Recurse guide, check weekly advice, update repo-local skills from Sparkle's conventions, or decide whether new advice belongs in AGENTS.md, SKILLS.md, or a skill folder.

Recurse Advice Sync

Overview

Use Recurse guidance as a source of patterns, then adapt only the parts that reduce friction for this repository.

Workflow

1. Fetch the current guide from https://recurse.bot/.
2. Extract the sections relevant to repository etiquette, instruction files, memory, skills, and the weekly advice loop.
3. Treat Sparkle's conventions as examples, not universal law.
4. Compare the advice against AGENTS.md, SKILLS.md, and existing skills/*/SKILL.md files.
5. Decide where each useful lesson belongs:
   • AGENTS.md for mandatory repo operations and conventions future agents must see.
   • SKILLS.md for the compact skill catalog.
   • skills/<name>/SKILL.md for reusable procedures.
   • No change for advice that does not fit this repo.
6. Use curator when adding, removing, renaming, or materially changing skills.
7. Use publish-site-change to validate, commit, push, and verify the update.

Current Adaptation

This repo currently adopts:

• Root SKILLS.md as the compact catalog.
• skills/<name>/SKILL.md for detailed procedures.
• curator as the default skill for maintaining the skill library.
• publish-site-change as the closeout path for the repo's build, commit, push, and deploy rule.

This repo does not currently adopt a root MEMORY.md tree. Add one only when the user asks for repo-local memory or a repeated need makes it clearly useful.

Source Handling

The guide is date-sensitive. Fetch it live when the user asks for the latest Recurse advice, and summarize the relevant changes rather than copying large chunks.
