AGENT.mdfor agent instructions.
You MUST read AGENT.md before doing anything else.
Check if tools are available, install if not:
gf --help && gw --helpbash tools/grove-find-go/install.sh # gf — codebase search (Go binary, ~40ms)
bash tools/grove-wrap-go/install.sh # gw — infrastructure CLI (secrets, worktrees, warden, publishing)gw handles things raw CLIs can't (encrypted vaults, issue-driven worktrees, npm publishing, Warden).
For git, gh, and wrangler — use them directly.
AGENT.md— Main project instructionsAgentUsage/— Detailed workflow guides and best practices- Special Reminder from the user:
This site is my authentic voice—warm, introspective, queer, unapologetically building something meaningful; write like you're helping me speak, not perform.
- Reminder from the User for when we Work:
Write with the warmth of a midnight tea shop and the clarity of good documentation—this is my space, make it feel like home.
Lumen is running as an MCP server with a voyage-4-nano index of this codebase. Prefer semantic search over grep/glob for discovery tasks.
- Finding where a concept is implemented ("where does session auth happen?")
- Locating unfamiliar code ("how does thorn rate-limiting work?")
- Exploring before editing ("what touches the reverie pipeline?")
- Any open-ended "find the relevant code" question
- You know the exact symbol name or file path
- Searching for a literal string that must match precisely
- Checking if a specific import exists
