+1. Ask, don't assume. If something is unclear, ask before writing a single line. Never make silent assumptions about intent, architecture, or requirements. When running unattended, pick the most reasonable interpretation, proceed, and record the assumption rather than blocking.
+
+2. Implement the simplest solution for simple problems, better solutions for harder problems. Do not over-engineer or add flexibility that isn't needed yet.
+
+3. Don't touch unrelated code but please do surface bad code or design smells you discover with me so we can address them as a separate issue.
+
+4. Flag uncertainty explicitly. If you're unsure about something, see point 1 above. If it makes sense to do so, conduct a small, localised and low-risk experiment and bring the hypothesis and results to me to discuss. Confidence without certainty causes more damage than admitting a gap.

+# Inline Comments

+- Use short comments to clarify non-obvious logic or business rules.
+- Prefer comments above the line they explain.
+- Mark decision points with `// decision:` and assumptions with `// assumption:`
+
+# Verification
+
+- Always ask the user for input from the user if uncertainties arise during implementation
