README

# Less is More

A prompt constraint system that forces AI agents to adhere to the "less is more" philosophy. 
It ensures your AI helper doesn't over-engineer solutions, builds only what's necessary (YAGNI), and favors standard/native libraries over unnecessary external dependencies.

## Usage

This configuration is designed to work seamlessly out-of-the-box with supported agents.

### GitHub Copilot
If you're using GitHub Copilot in your IDE (VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio), it will automatically detect the `.github/copilot-instructions.md` file and apply the "Less is More" constraints to all your sessions in this workspace.

### Antigravity CLI
If you're using the Antigravity CLI, you can install this ruleset as a plugin directly:
```bash
agy plugin install /path/to/less-is-more
```
It uses the included `gemini-extension.json` and `AGENTS.md` to set up the rules.

### Other Agents (Cursor, Windsurf, CodeWhale, etc.)
Many modern agents automatically load `AGENTS.md` when it's present in the root directory. Opening this workspace with those tools will automatically enforce the minimal code policy.
