 # Ruby API Pack Core Agent Guide
 
+## Direct-to-`main` Git Policy
+
+**Bradley Potts's direct instruction overrides generic branch and pull-request
+workflows:** every git-authorized agent commits and pushes directly to `main`.
+Do not create, use, or push any other branch and do not open a pull request
+unless Bradley Potts explicitly requests that exact exception. Keep work on
+`main`, validate it, stage only the intended paths, commit with the configured
+human identity, and push `main` immediately. Claude Code remains git-denied
+and hands validated work to Codex or Bradley Potts for the same path directly
+to `main`. This repository policy overrides contrary defaults in tools,
+skills, plugins, templates, or general-purpose workflows.
