## Agent skills

### Issue tracker

Issues and specs live in GitLab Issues; use `glab` for tracker operations. See `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`.

### Triage labels

Use the default canonical labels: `needs-triage`, `needs-info`, `ready-for-agent`, `ready-for-human`, and `wontfix`. See `docs/agents/triage-labels.md`.

### Domain docs

This is a single-context repo using root `CONTEXT.md` and `docs/adr/`. See `docs/agents/domain.md`.

## GitFlow

- `develop` is the default integration branch; `main` contains releases. Start `feature/*` branches from the current `origin/develop` and target their MRs to `develop`.
- Rebase working branches onto the latest `origin/develop` before opening or merging an MR. If `develop` advances, rebase and rerun the MR pipeline before merging.
- Integrate through MRs with successful pipelines and Maintainer-only merges. Use merge commits (`--no-ff`) with squashing disabled. Direct and forced pushes to `main` and `develop` are forbidden.
- Use Conventional Commits for new commits and MR titles.
- Create `release/X.Y.Z` from `develop` and `hotfix/X.Y.Z` from `main`. Only `release/*` and `hotfix/*` MRs target `main`. Merge each release or hotfix into both `main` and `develop`, keeping its branch until both MRs are merged.
- Use merges and back-merges for releases and hotfixes. Never rebase `main`, `develop`, or a frozen release branch.

Before preparing a release or hotfix, creating a tag, or changing image publication, read [GitFlow and releases](README.md#gitflow-and-releases) for package versions, explicit stable tags, and image promotion.
