Ported from main (fbb3c09) onto dev at e7904eb. Agent instructions and docs - AGENTS.md: public agent guide, the single source of truth; CLAUDE.md imports it. docs/faq.md: human FAQ, linked from the README. - .gitignore: commit CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md; ignore *.local.md. - README, FAQ, AGENTS: Git LFS is an install prerequisite (a clone made without it yields a 134-byte pointer stub, not the model), RF-DETR arrives with the clone, and `mats fetch-weights` is the repair path. Repair uses `git lfs pull --exclude=weights/birefnet_leaf.pth`, which stays RF-DETR-only whether or not .lfsconfig's fetchexclude is active. - README: reconciled with the restructure from PR #2; its headings and TOC are kept, and the hand-edited doctor/fetch paragraph is preserved verbatim. Also carried over from fbb3c09 (app work, unrelated to the docs) - src/mats/app/Home.py, branding.py, src/mats/core.py, pyproject.toml, tests/test_home_app.py Known and not addressed here - .lfsconfig has fetchexclude commented out on dev, so a clone now fetches BiRefNet (2.65 GB) as well as RF-DETR. - tests/test_weights.py::test_status_missing_for_excluded_checkout_pointer already fails on dev before this commit (message reworded in PR #2).
