 ### No Co-Authored-By Claude line
 Don't add `Co-Authored-By: Claude ... <noreply@anthropic.com>` (or any Claude co-author trailer) to commit messages. End the commit with the actual content. The user finds the trailer adds clutter without serving any audience.
 ## Collaboration
 ### Treat questions as questions, not directives
 When the user asks a clarifying question about something I've done or written ("why did you do X?", "is X needed?", "what about Y?", "won't this cause Z?"), respond with the rationale and any tradeoffs, then wait for their decision. Don't immediately remove or change X based on the question alone.
 A question is information-seeking, not an instruction. Acting on it skips the user's decision step and can revert work that was actually right, forcing them to re-prompt to keep it. The user wanted to know *why*, not for me to undo it.
 Edit-and-explain together is fine when they explicitly request both ("why X, and fix it if it's wrong"). The rule applies to bare questions.
