Steering/corrective instructions are now supposed to go into memories - which are non-portable? How do we manage these documents for team members without everyone repeating themselves? And if you remove all these documents, how do you work with other models which might use them (nevermind that claude ignored AGENTS.md for the longest time).

I am on board with not putting stuff like "write clean code" into an agent file, or using plugins for tools that are now built into the harness. I don't see enough evidence to support models being significantly better at figuring out intent, or getting the assumption correct. I've always gotten better results (as ever) with very constrained instructions, vs "fix the install".

I’m sure this just intended to steer you to vendor lock-in. Remember, these are the same people who are so insecure/petty about their product that they won’t make it recognize the .agents/AGENTS.md standard.
