📖 Description

Adds a root AGENTS.md for agent compatibility and mirrors issue/PR guidance in .github/copilot-instructions.md.

This nudges agents to search for duplicates, use the repository issue forms instead of blank issues, keep issue bodies concise, and follow the PR template when opening pull requests.

Add agent guidance for issues and PRs
96e44a4
Add a root AGENTS.md so agents that do not read Copilot-specific instructions still get repository guidance before filing issues or opening pull requests.

Mirror the issue-template and pull-request expectations in .github/copilot-instructions.md so Copilot-backed agents also avoid blank issue submissions.
