Scaffold the per-repo configuration the engineering skills expect, and put
the three-way split of work into standing law:

- Live work -> wayfinder maps + Gitea issues (closeable, assignable,
  queryable).
- Settled decisions -> ADR files in docs/adr/ (immutable, findable, never
  closed).
- Standing law -> DOCTRINE.md / AGENTS.md / CONTEXT.md.

Adds docs/agents/{issue-tracker,triage-labels,domain}.md and an
"Agent skills" section in AGENTS.md. The tracker doc records Gitea via the
tea CLI, the wayfinder map/ticket/blocking operations, and the rule that
issues follow ownership: file work in the repo that owns it, not the one you
happen to be standing in.

ADR-0001 (markdown is reference, law, or an ADR - nothing else) is adopted
from sow-codebase so the rule is local to every repo.

# Domain Docs
How the engineering skills should consume this repo's domain documentation when exploring the codebase.
## Before exploring, read these
- **`CONTEXT.md`** at the repo root, or
- **`CONTEXT-MAP.md`** at the repo root if it exists — it points at one `CONTEXT.md` per context. Read each one relevant to the topic.
- **`docs/adr/`** — read ADRs that touch the area you're about to work in. In multi-context repos, also check `src/<context>/docs/adr/` for context-scoped decisions.
If any of these files don't exist, **proceed silently**. Don't flag their absence; don't suggest creating them upfront. The `/domain-modeling` skill (reached via `/grill-with-docs` and `/improve-codebase-architecture`) creates them lazily when terms or decisions actually get resolved.
## File structure
Single-context repo (most repos):
```
/
├── CONTEXT.md
├── docs/adr/
│ ├── 0001-event-sourced-orders.md
│ └── 0002-postgres-for-write-model.md
└── src/
```
Multi-context repo (presence of `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the root):
```
/
├── CONTEXT-MAP.md
├── docs/adr/ ← system-wide decisions
└── src/
├── ordering/
│ ├── CONTEXT.md
│ └── docs/adr/ ← context-specific decisions
└── billing/
├── CONTEXT.md
└── docs/adr/
```
## Use the glossary's vocabulary
When your output names a domain concept (in an issue title, a refactor proposal, a hypothesis, a test name), use the term as defined in `CONTEXT.md`. Don't drift to synonyms the glossary explicitly avoids.
If the concept you need isn't in the glossary yet, that's a signal — either you're inventing language the project doesn't use (reconsider) or there's a real gap (note it for `/domain-modeling`).
## Flag ADR conflicts
If your output contradicts an existing ADR, surface it explicitly rather than silently overriding:
