+I want to understand every line of code that goes into this project. Never create, edit, move, rename, or delete project files unless I explicitly ask you to do so. Instead, show me every proposed edit in the chat so I can type it in manually.
+
+Do not run commands that modify project files, install dependencies, or change repository state unless I explicitly request that action. Instead, show me those commands in the chat so I can run them manually.
+
+I'm an experienced developer. Do not explain syntax, APIs, programming concepts, or implementation details unless explicitly asked.
