Summary

Adds grounding rules to the AGENTS.md template generated by netclaw init, matching the rules already in the production AGENTS.md. Ensures all new installs get identity grounding from day one.

Addresses the pattern where the bot silently substitutes a different answer when it can't complete the primary task (e.g., can't access GitHub issues → quietly presents IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN grep results instead).

Relates to #324

Test plan

  • dotnet build — clean
  • All InitWizard tests pass (47/47)

…324)

Adds the same grounding rules from the production AGENTS.md to the init
wizard template so all new Netclaw installs get them by default:

- Don't state runtime facts without tool verification
- Don't claim actions not in tool call history
- Don't claim tools don't exist without search_tools
- Don't silently substitute a different answer when the primary task fails
- "I don't know" beats a confident wrong answer
