AI-assisted development is increasingly common in Nova reviews, but without a small amount of project-specific routing automated tools can choose incorrect defaults such as pytest, GitHub-style review workflows, or unsafe git operations. At the same time, project conventions should remain in contributor documentation and deterministic checks rather than large tool-specific instruction files. This change adds a compact AGENTS.md routing index for high-signal local workflow guardrails and links to the canonical Nova documentation. It also adds contributor documentation for maintaining that routing layer, repository orientation, dependency placement, and commit message conventions, including DCO, Gerrit Change-Id, and AI attribution trailers. The testing guide now summarizes Zuul gating and unsquashed commit series expectations, while the threading reference documents the current avoidance of new eventlet-specific primitives. Local AI tool preference files and .tmp scratch output are ignored so local state does not appear in upstream reviews.

I just saw this in upstream by chance, and this may be useful for us too. |
