What changes were proposed in this pull request?

  • Simplified Copilot instructions and agent guidelines to be shorter and more actionable.
  • Highlighted critical project conventions (imports, style, testing, build commands).

Why are the changes needed?

The previous guidance was too long and diluted key rules. This change improves signal-to-noise so contributors and AI agents follow project conventions more consistently.

Fix: #9789

Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?

No.

How was this patch tested?

N/A (documentation-only change).
