Every release, we ask, "Treat all of Documentation/ as the correct
instructions, and examine all of agents/ to find inconsistencies,
redundancies, or conflicts with Documentation/, and correct the agents/
docs. Then do a pass to distil instructions in agents/ down to only what
is strictly needed for agents to operate."  and commit the results?
