Pull request overview

Adds a new repository-root agents.md onboarding guide intended to help coding agents quickly understand DiskANN’s workspace layout and common dev workflows, primarily by linking to existing “source of truth” files.

Changes:

  • Introduces agents.md with a repo overview, crate tiering summary, and links to key project docs/config.
  • Documents common test commands and points to nextest and the baseline caching system docs.
  • Documents formatting/clippy/coverage/CI references and a short “DON’T” testing patterns list.

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
