Give AI the Context It Should See, Not the Whole Repository

Short summary

AI task failures stem from bad context, not model limits. Build focused context packages with explicit source-of-truth hierarchies and labeled content types (fact, evidence, project-local rule) rather than dumping entire repositories. This reduces hallucinations and improves AI system reliability.

• •Wrong context causes more AI failures than model capability gaps
• •Design task-specific context packages instead of exposing full repositories
• •Establish source-of-truth hierarchies and label what is generalizable vs. project-local
