# Agent Instructions

## Python Type Hints (REQUIRED)

- **All functions must have type hints** for parameters and return types.
- **All class attributes must have type hints** in `__init__`.
- **Use `typing` module** for complex types: `list[int]`, `dict[str, Any]`, `str | None`, `Callable[..., Any]`.
- **Never use bare `list` or `dict`** - always parameterize: `list[str]`, `dict[str, Any]`.
- **Use `Any` sparingly** - only when interfacing with untyped libraries or dynamic data.
- **Module-level constants must have type hints**: `VERSION: str = "1.0"`.
- **Tuple return types**: use `tuple[str, int]` for multiple returns.

## Dataclasses (REQUIRED for complex data)

- **Prefer `@dataclass`** for any class representing structured data with multiple fields.
- **Use `dataclasses.field()`** for default values that are mutable (lists, dicts).
- **Use `field(default_factory=list)`** instead of `default=[]`.
- **Use `field(default_factory=dict)`** instead of `default={}`.
- **Use `kw_only=True`** for dataclasses with many optional fields.
- **Use `frozen=True`** for immutable dataclasses when appropriate.
- **Example:**
  ```python
  from dataclasses import dataclass, field
  from typing import Optional
  
  @dataclass
  class IssueInfo:
      number: int
      title: str
      owner: str
      repo: str
      labels: list[str] = field(default_factory=list)
      assignee: Optional[str] = None
  ```

## Follow all instructions provided in the system prompt.
- Keep responses concise and direct.
- Minimize output tokens.
- Use the `Task` tool for complex multi-step tasks.
- Verify solutions with tests if possible.
- Run lint and typecheck commands if provided.
- Do not commit changes unless explicitly asked.
- Use GitHub-flavored markdown for formatting.
- Answer concisely with fewer than 4 lines of text.
- ALWAYS use `uv` to run python commands. Do not use `python3` directly.
- Always commit and push changes at the end of a task.
- NEVER push to the master or main branch.

# Environment Variables

- `GITEA_URL` — Gitea API base URL (REQUIRED)
- `GITEA_TOKEN` — Gitea API token (REQUIRED)
- `GITEA_REPOS_ROOT` — Local path to clone repos to (REQUIRED)
- `AGENT_MODEL_ID` — LM Studio model ID (default: `qwen/qwen3.6-35b-a3b`)
- `AGENT_MAX_RETRIES` — Max retries per task (default: `2`)

# Architecture

The agent uses a **repo-scoped single-agent dispatch** pattern:

1. `AgentOrchestrator` polls Gitea for assigned issues/PRs
2. Tasks are grouped by repo and enqueued in `WorkQueue`
3. `AgentDispatcher` creates a **fresh `CodingAgent`** per repo batch
4. Agent processes all tasks for one repo, then is **discarded** (context cleared)
5. Next repo gets a fresh agent — no context bleed between repos

```
main.py (polling loop every 60s)
  └── AgentOrchestrator
        ├── WorkQueue (grouped by repo)
        └── AgentDispatcher
              └── CodingAgent (one at a time, discarded after each repo)
```

# Running the Agent

```bash
# Activate the virtual environment
uv sync

# Run the agent
uv run start-agent
```

# Repository Scope

- **The agent MUST ONLY operate on repos within the `meeks` organization.**
- `gitea/client.py:48` enforces this with a hardcoded filter: `if r.get("owner", {}).get("login") == "meeks"`
- **Never change this filter** to include personal accounts (e.g., `meeks-ai`) or other organizations.
- This filter is the single source of truth for repo scope — do not bypass it.
