# AGENTS.md
This file provides high-level guidance for all agents working in the SCADA for Small Water Systems project.
## Project Mission
Build a modern, affordable, low-egress SCADA monitoring and alerting platform for small municipal and private water systems. The system must combine edge computing (Raspberry Pi), hybrid AI models, and a clean multi-tenant interface to deliver reliable monitoring with minimal ongoing data costs.
## Key Principles
- Follow the execution guidelines defined in `core-planning/docs/EXECUTION.md`
- Use the SCRUM stand-up format when reporting progress
- Coordinate primarily through the project Kanban board
- Maintain clear, actionable comments on tasks
- Prioritize low data egress and practical reliability over theoretical perfection
## Architecture & Constraints
- Target hardware: Raspberry Pi 5 + cellular HAT (eSIM preferred)
- Strong emphasis on **low-egress design** — heavy local summarization, rich context only on alerts
- Hybrid AI architecture (small edge models + larger reasoning models)
- Multi-tenancy support for both individual system owners and professional operators managing multiple systems
- Tamper-evident sealed enclosures for field devices
- Must support both non-technical board members and licensed water system operators
## Coding Standards
- All project documentation must live under the `/docs` folder
- Use clear, professional technical writing
- Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) go in `docs/decisions/`
## Kanban Workflow
- All work is tracked in the project Kanban board
- Use clear task prefixes: `[Feature]`, `[Bug]`, `[Research]`, `[Architecture]`, `[Spec]`, etc.
- Follow the escalation rules defined in `core-planning/docs/KANBAN-WORKFLOW.md`
- Only escalate to the human when the defined escalation criteria are met
## Important Context
- All documentation lives under `docs/` in this repo
- Refer to `core-planning/docs/` for team-wide standards
- When in doubt, ask for clarification in the task comments
## Agent Roles in This Project
See the `agents/` folder for role-specific instructions.
