-## Core Rules
-
-1. **RAII everywhere** — no raw `new`/`delete` without justification
-2. **const correctness** — mark everything `const` that should be
-3. **Move semantics** — implement move constructors, use `std::move` correctly
-4. **No undefined behavior** — signed overflow, null dereference, out-of-bounds
-5. **Engine APIs** — use project logging/assert/allocator, not raw primitives
-
-## Quality Checklist
-
-- [ ] No raw `new`/`delete` without justification
-- [ ] All resources managed via RAII
-- [ ] `const` applied everywhere appropriate
-- [ ] No `using namespace` in headers
-- [ ] All error paths handled

-Break into sub-tasks of 1-2 files each, in dependency order.
