* docs: clarify which workspace files are injected into context window (#12909)
The system prompt docs listed bootstrap files but omitted MEMORY.md,
which IS injected when present. This led users to assume memory files
are on-demand only and not consuming context tokens.
Changes:
- Add MEMORY.md to the bootstrap file list
- Note that all listed files consume tokens on every turn
- Clarify that memory/*.md daily files are NOT injected (on-demand only)
- Document sub-agent bootstrap filtering (AGENTS.md + TOOLS.md only)
Closes#12909
* docs: mention memory.md alternate filename in bootstrap list
Address review feedback: the runtime also injects lowercase memory.md
(DEFAULT_MEMORY_ALT_FILENAME) when present.
* docs: align memory bootstrap docs (#12937) (thanks @omair445)

## What
Add emoji reactions guidance to the default AGENTS.md template.
## Why
Reactions are a natural, human-like way to acknowledge messages without cluttering chat. This should be default behavior.
## Testing
- Tested locally on Discord DM ✅
- Tested locally on Discord guild channel ✅
## AI-Assisted
This change was drafted with help from my Clawdbot instance (Clawd 🦞).
We tested the behavior together before submitting.
* feat: skip heartbeat API calls when HEARTBEAT.md is effectively empty
- Added isHeartbeatContentEffectivelyEmpty() to detect files with only headers/comments
- Modified runHeartbeatOnce() to check HEARTBEAT.md content before polling the LLM
- Returns early with 'empty-heartbeat-file' reason when no actionable tasks exist
- Preserves existing behavior when file is missing (lets LLM decide)
- Added comprehensive test coverage for empty file detection
- Saves API calls/costs when heartbeat file has no meaningful content
* chore: update HEARTBEAT.md template to be effectively empty by default
Changed instruction text to comment format so new workspaces benefit from
heartbeat optimization immediately. Users still get clear guidance on usage.
* fix: only treat markdown headers (# followed by space) as comments, not #TODO etc
* refactor: simplify regex per code review suggestion
* docs: clarify heartbeat empty file behavior (#1535) (thanks @JustYannicc)
