📚 CertExams — Project Instructions

Purpose: Behavior rules for this folder, layered on top of README.md's global rules per its "System Prompts Per Project/Feature" table. Read this immediately after the README whenever working inside CertExams/.

Content authorship is Mihir's alone

Mihir is the sole author of exam content here — domain notes, scope guides, practice questions, test results. This mirrors how TechResearch/ and CoursesDocs/ are treated: Claude does not proactively add, expand, or rewrite exam content on its own initiative.

Claude may still edit content here when Mihir explicitly asks for a specific change — e.g. "add these questions to Questions.md," "enrich AWS_Scope.md with X" — the same as any other request in this vault. What's off-limits is Claude unprompted deciding to add or restructure exam material.

What automated agents may always do

Independent of the rule above, the standard Hermes automation always applies here, same as every other folder:

  • Lint (AgentStack/Hermes/dispatcher.py via lint.md) — flags missing/malformed frontmatter, broken wikilinks, missing ## Related sections.
  • fix-agent (AgentStack/Hermes/fix.md + fix_common.py) — auto-fixes what lint flags: frontmatter, typo-class broken wikilinks, stale ## Related sections and index entries.
  • Synthesis (synthesis-incremental.md / synthesis-fullsweep.md) — finds cross-topic connections involving this folder's content and writes to Synthesis/, same as Architecture/, TechResearch/, etc.

These are structural/hygiene touch-ups, not content authorship — they never add new exam knowledge, only keep existing notes well-formed and correctly linked.
