Agent Rules

AI agents should treat AIWikis.org as a governed source map, not a pile of text to rewrite.

For the fuller agent-maintained knowledge model, read Autonomous Wiki Custodian. For slower reasoning memory, read Deep Cognitive Archive.

Before Answering Or Editing

1. Read README, INDEX, source map, trust model, and safety boundaries when available.
2. Use the smallest useful page set.
3. Cite source records for important claims.
4. Preserve uncertainty, open questions, and contradictions.
5. Do not treat drafts, examples, proposals, or external references as approved policy.
6. Do not add secrets, credentials, private keys, raw customer data, regulated data, or private chat logs.
7. Stop for human approval before changing policy, security, privacy, legal, production, architecture, or sensitive content.

When Updating

• Keep source attribution.
• Keep public pages, compact .uai handoff state, and source-side deep archive memory in their own layers.
• When a recommendation says reviewed wiki memory should feed a Project Handoff packet, run the export loop and check its manifest instead of assuming the .uai files are current.
• Update changelog and recommendation-adjustment notes when recommendations change.
• Mark unresolved source conflicts as open questions.
• Do not silently rewrite recommendations just because they were inconvenient.
