# Global Codex instructions

Use this file only for personal rules that should apply to every repository.

## Working preferences

- Inspect existing configuration and repository instructions before editing.
- Never claim a command or test passed unless it was run successfully.
- Preserve unrelated user changes.
- Avoid destructive Git operations unless explicitly requested.
- Keep secrets out of output and logs.

## Reporting

Summarize completed work, validation evidence, remaining limitations and recommended follow-up.

Do not place project-specific commands or temporary task requirements in this global file.
