Coding-agent prompt

From discussion to buildable spec

A Coding-agent prompt captures a self-contained, implementable engineering instruction distilled from a discussion, written so a coding agent (or a developer) can execute it without rejoining the conversation. Unlike a raw action item or a meeting note, it carries the full technical context - goal, constraints, acceptance criteria, and pointers to the relevant code - packaged as a ready-to-run prompt. It differs from a bug report (which describes a problem to be triaged) in that it prescribes the work to be done and is optimized for handoff to an automated agent.
