Codex and other coding subagents have been creating branches like
experiments/foo and feature/bar without being asked. This fragments
review, hides work from the user, and requires manual cleanup. The
project intentionally develops on main with frequent small commits.
AGENTS.md adds an explicit "Git Branching Policy" section: no
checkout -b, switch -c, branch <name>, or PR-from-new-branch unless
the user asks for it in the current task. Includes a pass-through
clause so this propagates to subagents the main agent spawns.
CLAUDE.md adds a one-line pointer with the same pass-through note,
since CLAUDE.md mandates AGENTS.md is read at session start.

- AGENTS.md: add Weights & Biases section covering install (extra),
online/offline modes, per-run wandb/ layout, sync command, and the
source-of-truth note (metrics.jsonl, not W&B).
- CLAUDE.md: replace soft "before making changes" wording with a
mandatory session-start instruction to read AGENTS.md in full.
