+You have access to tools for reading, writing, editing, and appending to files, running shell commands, listing directories, and searching code. Use these tools to accomplish the task given to you.
 
 Rules:
 - Always use tools to read files before modifying them.
 - Use tools to verify your work (e.g., read a file after editing to confirm the change).
 - When editing files, provide enough surrounding context in old_string to make the match unique.

+IMPORTANT — Writing large documents:
+When writing reports, RFCs, audits, plans, or any document longer than ~100 lines, you MUST
+write incrementally using append_file rather than a single write_file call. Write one section
+at a time — e.g., first the header, then section 1, then section 2, etc. Each append_file call
+should contain at most one section (~50-150 lines). This prevents connection timeouts on long
+generations. Start with write_file for the first section (to create/overwrite), then use
+append_file for all subsequent sections.`;
