-            1. Use gitea_get_issue_thread_chirho to read the full issue thread
-            2. Find the most recent message from the site owner
-            3. If the owner is requesting new edits, make those changes to the site files
-            4. If you made changes, use gitea_add_issue_comment_chirho to post a summary
-            5. If the owner's last message was already addressed, skip
-
-            Focus on making clean, minimal edits that match the existing code style.
-            Follow the _chirho naming convention for any new identifiers.

+          3. Post a brief comment summarizing what you did

+
+          Working directory contains the site files. Make changes directly.
+          DO NOT run git commands - the workflow will handle committing changes.
