Conversation
…elopment Why: Establish foundation for agent-assisted development with persistent context Approach: Adapted otlp-mcp's BOTS.md guidance to otel-cli's philosophy Learned: otel-cli's functional testing approach and self-contained design are key differentiators Next: Use GitHub issues to track ongoing work and maintain visibility Added: - BOTS.md with otel-cli-specific agent guidance - CLAUDE.md and GEMINI.md symlinks for model-specific access - Emphasis on functional testing over unit tests - Git-based memory system (vs jj in otlp-mcp) - GitHub issues integration for project tracking This marks v0.6.0, the beginning of the agent-assisted development era.
