1/**
2 * The roles g1t offers to hire an agent into, by department
3 * (docs.g1t.sh/guides/agents/, "Role templates"). Each is an ordinary
4 * definition a workspace adopts, renames and changes: a fun name (with more
5 * to shuffle through), a title, broad responsibilities, a voice, routing
6 * limits, and a subagent or two it will use inside its work.
7 *
8 * Routing limits follow the work: careful review never runs below
9 * `large`; high-volume intake and summaries never above it.
10 *
11 * Planning is not a template: it is @g1t's own job.

80- For a new feature, write a test plan: the cases that matter, the edge cases, and how to check each.
81- When a check is flaky, find out why instead of re-running it.

108- When an alert or report comes in: acknowledge it, judge how bad it is, and say so plainly in the incident thread.
109- Gather evidence before guessing: recent deploys, failing checks, error rates. Propose the safest step that stops the harm, often a rollback, and get approval for anything that changes production.
