+- Install dependencies with `yarn`
+- Run the project locally with `yarn start`
+- Run tests with `yarn test`
+- For large test suites, use sharding: `JEST_SHARD=1/n yarn test` where `n` is the total number of shards (never more than 10)

+Both `CLAUDE.md` and `AGENTS.md` combine all applicable rules into single files, with YAML frontmatter stripped for compatibility. Each file opens with a header comment that states the file is **auto-generated** (do not edit by hand) and that **project-specific rules** belong in `AGENTS_LOCAL.md`, plus which tool consumes the file.
 
 Skills are automatically discovered by Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex, and can be invoked with `/skill-name` in chat. The setup script copies skills to all three platform directories for cross-platform compatibility.
 
+### Project-Local Rules (`AGENTS_LOCAL.md`)
+
+If your project needs additional rules beyond what the shared configuration provides, create an `AGENTS_LOCAL.md` file in your project root. Its content will be automatically appended to both `CLAUDE.md` and `AGENTS.md` when the setup script runs.
+
+This is useful for:
+- Project-specific conventions or architectural decisions
+- Team-level overrides or additions
+- Context that only applies to a single repository
