 ## Always Do
 
-- **Tests first:** Always provide a way to immediately test/run the code you write
+- **No test files:** Don't create test files; I'll run the code directly to verify it works
 - **No credentials in code:** Secrets go in `.env` files; always provide a `.env.example`
 - **Consistent style:** Follow the conventions for the language in use — see preferences files
 - **Ask before big changes:** Clarify scope before rewriting or restructuring

 ## Testing
 
-- Use **Pester** for unit testing
-- Always provide a Pester test file alongside new functions
-- At minimum, test: happy path, expected failure cases, and edge cases
-- Run tests with: `Invoke-Pester -Path .\Tests\ -Output Detailed`
