+# AGENTS.md
+
+Guidance for coding agents working in this repository.
+
+## Repo Snapshot
+
+- Project: `completely` (Ruby gem that generates Bash completion scripts from YAML).
+- Key generation code:
+  - `lib/completely/pattern.rb`
+  - `lib/completely/templates/template.erb`
+- Core behavior tests:
+  - `spec/completely/integration_spec.rb`
+  - `spec/completely/commands/generate_spec.rb`
+
+## Working Rules
+
+- Keep changes minimal and localized, especially in:
+  - completion-word serialization (`Pattern`)
+  - generated script runtime behavior (`template.erb`)
+- Do not change generated approvals.
+- Do not run approval prompts interactively on behalf of the developer.
+- If an approval spec changes, stop and ask the developer to review/approve manually.
+- Prefer adding regression coverage in integration fixtures for completion behavior changes.
+
+## Fast Validation Loop
+
+Run these first after edits:
+
+```bash
+respec tagged script_quality
+respec only integration
+```
+
+If touching quoting/escaping or dynamic completions, also run:
+
+```bash
+respec only pattern
+respec only completions
+```
+
+## Formatting and Linting Notes
+
+- `shellcheck` and `shfmt` requirements are enforced by specs tagged `:script_quality` in `spec/completely/commands/generate_spec.rb`.
+- `shfmt` uses flags:
+  - `shfmt -d -i 2 -ci completely.bash`
+- Small whitespace differences in heredoc/redirect forms (like `<<<"$x"` vs `<<< "$x"`) can fail shfmt.
+
+## Approval Specs
+
+- Some specs use `rspec_approvals` and may prompt interactively if output changes.
+- In non-interactive runs this can fail with `Errno::ENOTTY`.
+- Approval decisions are always developer-owned. Agents should not approve/update snapshots.
+
+## Completion Semantics to Preserve
+
+- Literal YAML words with spaces/quotes must complete correctly.
+- Dynamic `$(...)` entries must produce multiple completion candidates when command output contains multiple words.
+- `<file>`, `<directory>`, and other `<...>` entries map to `compgen -A ...` actions and should remain unaffected by `-W` serialization changes.
+
+## Manual Repro Pattern
+
+Useful local sanity check:
+
+```bash
+cd dev
+ruby -I../lib ../bin/completely test "cli "
+```
+
+Expected: sensible mixed output for dynamic values and quoted/spaced literals.

 ## Running tests
 
+You can run specs with `rspec` as usual.
+
+We recommend using [`respec`][2], which wraps common spec workflows:
+
 ```bash
-$ rspec
+rspec
 # or
-$ run spec
-# or, to run just tests in a given file
-$ run spec zsh
-# or, to run just specs tagged with :focus
-$ run spec :focus
+respec
 ```
 
 You might need to prefix the commands with `bundle exec`, depending on the way
 Ruby is installed.
 
+Useful helper shortcuts:
+
+```bash
+# script quality checks (shellcheck + shfmt generated script tests)
+respec tagged script_quality
+
+# integration behavior suite
+respec only integration
+```
+
 ## Interactive Approvals
 
 Some tests may prompt you for an interactive approval of changes. This
