Consolidates AI agent instructions into the standard AGENTS.md location (repo root) and adds explicit agent responsibility requirements.

Changes

  • Renamed .github/copilot-instructions.mdAGENTS.md (repo root — standard location recognised by AI coding agents)
  • Added Agent Responsibilities section near the top with four new requirements:
    • SHOULD run all relevant tests and resolve failures per repo convention
    • SHOULD run all relevant linters and resolve issues per repo convention
    • MUST verify and summarise visual changes when site output is affected
    • MUST smoke test desk user workflows by running commands as a user would

✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
