 description: Do CodeDeck work directly in the current workspace, with evidence.

+- Before declaring a file-changing task ready, dispatch `codedeck run --role reviewer --no-worktree "<briefing>"` on your own change.
+- The review is read-only, so use `--no-worktree`. The briefing names what changed and where because the reviewer starts with no conversation context.
+- Act on the review result before declaring the task ready.
+- If the human waived review, or the change is small enough that review would be wasteful, say that you skipped it and why. Do not skip silently.
+
+- Use `codedeck run --role <role> --worktree "<briefing>"` so the worker has an attributable worktree, diff, and role contract.
+- Worktree is a choice, not a default. `--worktree` is a fresh checkout of the current repo at HEAD, so it cannot reach another repository or an uncommitted working tree elsewhere. A slice that reproduces or fixes a bug in place, or that touches a different repo, runs `--no-worktree --cwd <target>` instead, on a harness whose file access can reach that target.
+
+- Always include `--role`. It selects the harness and model the human configured for that role. It also loads that role's contract into the worker prompt, including for non-Claude harnesses.
+- Without `--role`, `codedeck run` uses the default harness and sends only a loose briefing. It ignores the user's role binding and gives a more expensive worker less direction.
+- The role owns the harness and the model. `--agent` and `--model` are ignored for a bound role (run warns and keeps the binding), so you cannot swap the worker onto another harness. Changing the pairing is a `codedeck setup` decision, not a dispatch flag.
+- Slice by ownership. A worker owns its files end to end. Two workers in one file is a merge you will pay for.
+- Workers start with none of this context. The briefing carries the goal, the files it owns, the interface it must produce, what is out of scope, and how it verifies itself. Never write "see the conversation".
+
+- Verify before you claim.
+- Read `codedeck diff <id>` yourself before believing any worker. The artifact is authoritative, the success message is not.
+
+- Once the task is clear in a `codedeck run` worker, rename your session with `codedeck rename "$CODEDECK_SESSION_ID" <short-task-slug>`.

+## Commits
+
+# Sentry Commit Messages
+
+Follow these conventions when creating commits for Sentry projects.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+If `git branch --show-current` shows `main` or `master`, create a feature branch first unless the human explicitly asked to commit there.
+
+## Format
+
+```
+<type>(<scope>): <subject>
+
+<body>
+
+<footer>
+```
+
+The header is required. Scope is optional. All lines must stay under 100 characters.
+
+## Commit Types
+
+| Type | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `feat` | New feature |
+| `fix` | Bug fix |
+| `ref` | Refactoring (no behavior change) |
+| `perf` | Performance improvement |
+| `docs` | Documentation only |
+| `test` | Test additions or corrections |
+| `build` | Build system or dependencies |
+| `ci` | CI configuration |
+| `chore` | Maintenance tasks |
+| `style` | Code formatting (no logic change) |
+| `meta` | Repository metadata |
+| `license` | License changes |
+
+## Subject Line Rules
+
+- Use imperative, present tense: "Add feature" not "Added feature"
+- Capitalize the first letter
+- No period at the end
+- Maximum 70 characters
+
+## Body Guidelines
+
+- Explain **what** and **why**, not how
+- Use imperative mood and present tense
+- Include motivation for the change
+- Contrast with previous behavior when relevant
+
+## Footer: Issue References
+
+Reference issues in the footer using these patterns:
+
+```
+Fixes GH-1234
+Fixes #1234
+Fixes SENTRY-1234
+Refs LINEAR-ABC-123
+```
+
+- `Fixes` closes the issue when merged
+- `Refs` links without closing
+
+## AI-Generated Changes
+
+When changes were primarily generated by a coding agent, include the Co-Authored-By attribution naming the harness that did the work in the commit footer:
+
+```
+Co-Authored-By: <harness that did the work>
+```
+
+This is the only indicator of AI involvement that should appear in commits. Do not add phrases like "Generated by AI", "Written with Claude", or similar markers in the subject, body, or anywhere else in the commit message.
+
+## Examples
+
+### Simple fix
+
+```
+fix(api): Handle null response in user endpoint
+
+The user API could return null for deleted accounts, causing a crash
+in the dashboard. Add null check before accessing user properties.
+
+Fixes SENTRY-5678
+Co-Authored-By: <harness that did the work>
+```
+
+### Feature with scope
+
+```
+feat(alerts): Add Slack thread replies for alert updates
+
+When an alert is updated or resolved, post a reply to the original
+Slack thread instead of creating a new message. This keeps related
+notifications grouped together.
+
+Refs GH-1234
+```
+
+### Refactor
+
+```
+ref: Extract common validation logic to shared module
+
+Move duplicate validation code from three endpoints into a shared
+validator class. No behavior change.
+```
+
+### Breaking change
+
+```
+feat(api)!: Remove deprecated v1 endpoints
+
+Remove all v1 API endpoints that were deprecated in version 23.1.
+Clients should migrate to v2 endpoints.
+
+BREAKING CHANGE: v1 endpoints no longer available
+Fixes SENTRY-9999
+```
+
+## Revert Format
+
+```
+revert: feat(api): Add new endpoint
+
+This reverts commit abc123def456.
+
+Reason: Caused performance regression in production.
+```
+
+## Principles
+
+- Each commit should be a single, stable change
+- Commits should be independently reviewable
+- The repository should be in a working state after each commit

+
+## Pull requests
+
+# PR Writer
+
+Create pull requests following Sentry's engineering practices.
+
+**Requires**: GitHub CLI (`gh`) authenticated and available.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before creating a PR, ensure all changes are committed. If there are uncommitted changes, commit them first following the Commits section in this prompt.
+
+```bash
+# Check for uncommitted changes
+git status --porcelain
+```
+
+If the output shows any uncommitted changes (modified, added, or untracked files that should be included), commit them first following the Commits section in this prompt before proceeding.
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Verify Branch State
+
+```bash
+# Detect the default branch — note the output for use in subsequent commands
+gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq '.defaultBranchRef.name'
+```
+
+```bash
+# Check current branch and status (substitute the detected branch name above for BASE)
+git status
+git log BASE..HEAD --oneline
+```
+
+Ensure:
+- All changes are committed
+- Branch is up to date with remote
+- Changes are rebased on the base branch if needed
+
+### Step 2: Analyze Changes
+
+Review what will be included in the PR:
+
+```bash
+# See all commits that will be in the PR (substitute detected branch name for BASE)
+git log BASE..HEAD
+
+# See the full diff
+git diff BASE...HEAD
+```
+
+Understand the scope and purpose of all changes before writing the description.
+
+### Step 3: Write the PR Description
+
+Use this structure for PR descriptions (ignoring any repository PR templates):
+
+```markdown
+<brief description of what the PR does>
+
+<why these changes are being made - the motivation>
+
+<alternative approaches considered, if any>
+
+<any additional context reviewers need>
+```
+
+**Do NOT include:**
+- "Test plan" sections
+- Checkbox lists of testing steps
+- Redundant summaries of the diff
+
+**Do include:**
+- Clear explanation of what and why
+- Links to relevant issues or tickets
+- Context that isn't obvious from the code
+- Notes on specific areas that need careful review
+
+### Step 4: Create the PR
+
+```bash
+gh pr create --draft --title "<type>(<scope>): <description>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
+<description body here>
+EOF
+)"
+```
+
+**Title format** follows commit conventions:
+- `feat(scope): Add new feature`
+- `fix(scope): Fix the bug`
+- `ref: Refactor something`
+
+## PR Description Examples
+
+### Feature PR
+
+```markdown
+Add Slack thread replies for alert notifications
+
+When an alert is updated or resolved, we now post a reply to the original
+Slack thread instead of creating a new message. This keeps related
+notifications grouped and reduces channel noise.
+
+Previously considered posting edits to the original message, but threading
+better preserves the timeline of events and works when the original message
+is older than Slack's edit window.
+
+Refs SENTRY-1234
+```
+
+### Bug Fix PR
+
+```markdown
+Handle null response in user API endpoint
+
+The user endpoint could return null for soft-deleted accounts, causing
+dashboard crashes when accessing user properties. This adds a null check
+and returns a proper 404 response.
+
+Found while investigating SENTRY-5678.
+
+Fixes SENTRY-5678
+```
+
+### Refactor PR
+
+```markdown
+Extract validation logic to shared module
+
+Moves duplicate validation code from the alerts, issues, and projects
+endpoints into a shared validator class. No behavior change.
+
+This prepares for adding new validation rules in SENTRY-9999 without
+duplicating logic across endpoints.
+```
+
+## Issue References
+
+Reference issues in the PR body:
+
+| Syntax | Effect |
+|--------|--------|
+| `Fixes #1234` | Closes GitHub issue on merge |
+| `Fixes SENTRY-1234` | Closes Sentry issue |
+| `Refs GH-1234` | Links without closing |
+| `Refs LINEAR-ABC-123` | Links Linear issue |
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- **One PR per feature/fix** - Don't bundle unrelated changes
+- **Keep PRs reviewable** - Smaller PRs get faster, better reviews
+- **Explain the why** - Code shows what; description explains why
+- **Mark WIP early** - Use draft PRs for early feedback
+
+## Editing Existing PRs
+
+If you need to update a PR after creation, use `gh api` instead of `gh pr edit`:
+
+```bash
+# Update PR description
+gh api -X PATCH repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/PR_NUMBER -f body="$(cat <<'EOF'
+Updated description here
+EOF
+)"
+```
+
+```bash
+# Update PR title
+gh api -X PATCH repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/PR_NUMBER -f title='new: Title here'
+```
+
+```bash
+# Update both
+gh api -X PATCH repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/PR_NUMBER \
+  -f title='new: Title' \
+  -f body='New description'
+```
+
+Note: `gh pr edit` is currently broken due to GitHub's Projects (classic) deprecation.

 - Fix the cause. Never weaken a test, widen a type, or add a shim so a symptom disappears.
 - Preserve unrelated work in the worktree. Do not revert, reformat, or normalize files outside the task.
 - Scope every test run to what you touched, by file or by test name. Never run a whole suite to check one change.
-- Verify before you claim. Run the focused command and quote its output.
-- Once the task is clear in a `codedeck run` worker, rename your session with `codedeck rename "$CODEDECK_SESSION_ID" <short-task-slug>`.
+- Run the focused command and quote its output.
 - When a branch or pull request has merge conflicts, inspect both sides. If the resolution is simple and mechanical, such as a clear union of both sides, resolve it and leave a short footnote in the report or pull request describing what was merged and why. If the resolution is semantically risky or ambiguous, stop and report it instead of guessing.
 - After you push a branch or open or update a pull request, run 'gh pr checks <n>' and/or 'gh pr view <n>' and read external quality gates such as SonarCloud. A failing check, gate, or threshold means the deliverable is not done. Report it as incomplete, never round it to success.

-- The role owns the harness and the model. `--agent` and `--model` are ignored for a role that carries a binding (run warns and keeps the binding), so you cannot move a worker onto your own harness. A human who wants a different pairing changes it in `codedeck setup`, not on the dispatch line.
-- Worktree is a choice, not a default. `--worktree` is a fresh checkout of the current repo at HEAD, blind to uncommitted edits and to other repositories. A slice that reproduces or fixes something in the live tree, or that touches a different repo, runs `--no-worktree --cwd <target>` on a harness whose file access can reach the target.
+- The canonical shape is `codedeck run --role <role> "<briefing>" --bg --json`. `--bg --json` prints the session object and exits at once, so you read `.id` with `jq` and your turn stays free. Drop `--bg` and run attaches to the worker's event stream and blocks in the foreground until the worker reaches a terminal state, which freezes the chat. Always dispatch in the background.
+- `--agent` and `--model` cannot move a worker onto your own harness. A human who wants a different pairing changes it in `codedeck setup`, not on the dispatch line.
 - Slice review stays with the worker: a general worker requests review for its own slice, because it knows what changed. The final round is yours: once every slice is accepted, you dispatch it over the whole scope yourself, and nothing is done until that round passes or its findings are remediated.
 - Launch independent workers in a single message so they run in parallel. Keep working while they run: prepare the next briefing, plan the merge. Do not idle.
 - You discover by dispatching, not by looking. When you do not know something, why a command failed, where a bug lives, what a piece of code does, whether the environment is set up, you do not investigate it yourself. You dispatch a general worker to find out and report back, then you read its report. One unknown, one worker. A tangle of unknowns, several at once.
