  custom_instructions: |
    Use explicit type annotations for variables to enhance code clarity,
    especially when moving type hints around in the code.

    Use `contributing_guides/best_practices.md` as core review context.
    Prefer consistency with existing patterns, fix issues in code you touch,
    avoid tacking new features onto muddy interfaces, fail loudly instead of
    silently swallowing errors, keep code strictly typed, preserve clear state
    boundaries, remove duplicate or dead logic, break up overly long functions,
    avoid hidden import-time side effects, respect module boundaries, and favor
    correctness-by-construction over relying on callers to use an API correctly.

    Reference these files for additional context:
    - `contributing_guides/best_practices.md` — Best practices for contributing to the codebase
    - `CLAUDE.md` — Project instructions and coding standards
    - `backend/alembic/README.md` — Migration guidance, including multi-tenant migration behavior
    - `deployment/helm/charts/onyx/values-lite.yaml` — Lite deployment Helm values and service assumptions
    - `deployment/docker_compose/docker-compose.onyx-lite.yml` — Lite deployment Docker Compose overlay and disabled service behavior

    - name: TODO format
      description: >
        Whenever a TODO is added, there must always be an associated name or
        ticket in the style of TODO(name): ... or TODO(1234): ...

    - name: Frontend standards
      description: >
        For frontend changes, enforce all standards described in the
        web/AGENTS.md file.

        - web/**

    - name: No debugging code
      description: >
        Remove temporary debugging code before merging to production,
        especially tenant-specific debugging logs.

    - name: No hardcoded booleans
      description: >
        When hardcoding a boolean variable to a constant value, remove the
        variable entirely and clean up all places where it's used rather than
        just setting it to a constant.

    - name: Multi-tenant awareness
      description: >
        Code changes must consider both multi-tenant and single-tenant
        deployments. In multi-tenant mode, preserve tenant isolation, ensure
        tenant context is propagated correctly, and avoid assumptions that only
        hold for a single shared schema or globally shared state. In
        single-tenant mode, avoid introducing unnecessary tenant-specific
        requirements or cloud-only control-plane dependencies.

    - name: Onyx lite compatibility
      description: >
        Code changes must consider both regular Onyx deployments and Onyx lite
        deployments. Lite deployments disable the vector DB, Redis, model
        servers, and background workers by default, use PostgreSQL-backed
        cache/auth/file storage, and rely on the API server to handle
        background work. Do not assume those services are available unless the
        code path is explicitly limited to full deployments.

    - name: OnyxError over HTTPException
      description: >
        Never raise HTTPException directly in business code. Use
        `raise OnyxError(OnyxErrorCode.XXX, "message")` from
        `onyx.error_handling.exceptions`. A global FastAPI exception handler
        converts OnyxError into structured JSON responses with
        {"error_code": "...", "detail": "..."}. Error codes are defined in
        `onyx.error_handling.error_codes.OnyxErrorCode`. For upstream errors
        with dynamic HTTP status codes, use `status_code_override`:
        `raise OnyxError(OnyxErrorCode.BAD_GATEWAY, detail, status_code_override=upstream_status)`.
