chore(repo): include intentional agent edits + default PR auto-merge

[anand-testcompare]

Summary

• included your intentional local updates to .gitignore, .ignore, and AGENTS.md
• added .github/workflows/pr-auto-merge.yml to auto-enable squash auto-merge for same-repo PRs targeting main
• this removes the manual "approve + merge" step when required checks are green

Why manual merge was needed before

• repo already allows auto-merge, but it must be enabled per PR
• main has an active ruleset requiring the Vercel status check
• no approval is required (required_approving_review_count: 0), so the remaining manual action was just enabling merge for each PR

Validation

• actionlint .github/workflows/pr-auto-merge.yml
• bun x ultracite check

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores

  • Introduced automated pull request merging workflow to streamline code integration and development efficiency
  • Updated project configuration to exclude build output directories and temporary artifacts

• Documentation

  • Revised development guidelines with emphasis on code quality, data standards, and workflow optimization

Walkthrough

Introduces a GitHub Actions workflow for automated PR auto-merge, adds output/ directory to gitignore and ignore files, and rebrands AGENTS.md from code standards documentation to a comprehensive agent guide emphasizing autonomy and data quality practices.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
GitHub Actions Auto-Merge Workflow .github/workflows/pr-auto-merge.yml	New workflow that automatically enables squash-and-merge for PRs targeting the default branch, triggered on open/reopen/synchronize/ready-for-review events with guards for non-draft and matching repository head.
Version Control Artifacts .gitignore, .ignore	Adds output/ directory to both ignore lists alongside existing artifact exclusions.
Documentation & Guidelines AGENTS.md	Rebrands document from "Ultracite Code Standards" to "Agent Guide" with expanded sections covering autonomy rules, engineering standards, async/error handling, React/Next.js patterns, data quality & provenance, visual grading, and workflow guidance.
