Rules don't work on AI agents. My agent pushed to main 12 times despite explicit instructions.
Fix: git pre-push hooks on 39 repos. Agent can't push code to main because git rejects it. No willpower needed.

Mechanical enforcement > written instructions.
Built a self-hosted content pipeline because I'm better at building things than talking about them.
