Currently Argent adds a rules file to the project that is always included in agent context, even when the user does not intend to use Argent. This is context noise, and can in some cases lead to worse agent performance for other tasks.

A better approach is to make an Argent skill that the agent can use autonomously when working with Argent. Most of the rules file content is already covered by the various skills, and the skill can be a lighter "router" skill that the agent uses to select the right Argent skill, in addition to providing some general Argent usage instructions.

I realize that this is a significant change, and I am not privy to the decisions or reasons involved in making the original rules file. However, having the always-included rules does significantly hinder my usage of and willingness to recommend Argent. I am of course open to discussion and further iteration on this!
