docs: split agent instructions into scoped context files

[Malenford]

Move long-form guidance out of the root AGENTS.md into docs/agent-context references and add scoped AGENTS.md files for key subtrees. Keep load-bearing rules summarized in the root context to reduce startup prompt size while preserving discoverability.

Code Review Summary

Verdict: LGTM

What the PR Does

Split agent instructions into scoped context files, improving context management and organization.

Assessment

• Scope: Large diff (1070 lines) but entirely documentation/instructional content restructuring.
• Documentation: Per AGENTS.md, splitting large instruction files into scoped context files is desired (reduces prompt cache invalidation, improves maintainability).
• No code, tests, or security-sensitive content affected.

Note: PR was previously unreviewed.
