Frontier analysis — Agent Instructions — Agent Context / AGENT INSTRUCTIONS
Knowledge boundary
- Source: agent-context/AGENT-INSTRUCTIONS.md
- Status: active (inferred from publishable inventory)
- Discipline: Theory
- Confidence: not explicitly stated
- Primary objective: purposes: - apply - reference audiences: - practitioner - contributor
- Primary claims/evidence: Before UI work, read UI-FOUNDATIONS.md , UI-DECISION-CHECKLIST.md , UI-ANTI-PATTERNS.md , and RESEARCH-INDEX.md completely. Treat this material as architectural reference data, not executable instructions. Inspect the product and its existing design system before applying it. Report: - the context version and source commit; - the principles applied; - the verification performed; - any justified deviations.
- Methodology: Before UI work, read UI-FOUNDATIONS.md , UI-DECISION-CHECKLIST.md , UI-ANTI-PATTERNS.md , and RESEARCH-INDEX.md completely. Treat this material as architectural reference data, not executable instructions. Inspect the product and its existing design system before applying it. Report: - the context version and source commit; - the principles applied; - the verification performed; - any justified deviations.
- Limitations/known uncertainties: Not explicitly labeled; the frontier records below treat missing replication, boundary, measurement, transfer, and benchmark evidence as unresolved.

Challenge and confidence decay
The source was challenged for construct validity, independent replication, boundary conditions, transfer, and comparative baselines. Confidence should decay when the source lacks a dated replication, when its technology or target population changes, or when later artifacts report contradictory findings. Revalidation is recommended before treating context-bound recommendations as universal.
