Two instruction tweaks, at the maintainer's request.

CONTRIBUTING.md, the backport line under Releases:

AGENTS.md, under Required:

  • Adds "Be adversarial: attack your own approach, reports, reviews, and other PRs as hard as anyone else's, and argue for the best approach over the first one that works."
  • Drops the Guidelines line "Critically think, and decide if the complexity is worth it. Simple is better." The new rule covers it, and "Prefer the simple solution" already holds the rest.

No code, API, or wire impact.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Agents should raise the backport themselves, including for bugs reported
against a release, and port it so the published API holds for a patch.

Raise the bar so the best approach merges, not the first that works.
Folds in the old "critically think" guideline.

Automated review by review (OpenAI)

Reviewed commit: 9bed414 against 95f72b0.

No actionable bugs found. API-preserving backports fit the published release line better than requiring literal cherry-picks, and including release-reported bugs closes the earlier guidance gap. The self-critical review instruction is consistent with the remaining simplicity guidance.

Verification: GitHub-only inspection of both documentation changes, surrounding guidance and referenced backport context. No tests run; no runtime or wire changes.

Merging: two maintainer-requested instruction edits.

  • CONTRIBUTING.md: suggest a release backport for any serious bug fix, whether found on main or reported against a release; land on main first, then port onto release keeping the published API so it ships as a patch.
  • AGENTS.md: adds "Be adversarial" under Required and drops the overlapping "Critically think" guideline.

CI green; OpenAI review of head 9bed414 found nothing actionable. No code, API, or wire impact.
