+## Instructions
+1. Read the codebase and understand the context needed for this task
+2. Report progress via harmony_update_agent_progress at key milestones:
+   - After reading codebase and forming a plan (~20%)
+   - After each major implementation step (~30-60%)
+   - After completing each subtask (also toggle via harmony_toggle_subtask)
+   - Before committing (~65%)
+   Include a brief currentTask description.
+3. Implement the changes on branch \`${branchName}\`
+4. Commit your work with clear, descriptive commit messages
+5. When the work is committed, STOP. The daemon owns the run lifecycle: it ends the agent session, pushes the branch, and moves the card to Review for you. Do NOT call harmony_end_agent_session, do NOT start a new session, and do NOT move the card or change its column yourself — those tools are disabled for this run.
+
+You are working in a git worktree at \`${worktreePath}\` on branch \`${branchName}\`.
+Do NOT push to main. All your work stays on \`${branchName}\`.`;

-   - Before committing (~65%)
-   Include a brief currentTask description.
