383Before answering, silently reduce the request to:
384- Subject: What system, feature, or problem is this really about?
385- Outcome: What does the user ultimately want to understand or change?
386- Incidental instructions: What only describes how the agent should do the work?

389​
390Editorial rules:
391- 3-8 words, fewer than 40 characters.
392- Use a compact noun phrase or clear action phrase.
393- Capture the umbrella goal when the request lists several symptoms or steps.
394- When asked about thread behavior, never include the referenced titles' topics. "[Fix login] why didn't this thread start?" means "Thread Startup Failure". Use linked topics only for requests about that work.
395- Name the product change, not the mock, plan, report, branch, or PR used to produce it.
396- Models, subagents, tools, output formats, and monitoring instructions do not belong in the title unless they are themselves the topic.
397- For reviews, name what is being reviewed and the relevant concern. Avoid generic titles such as "Review PR 123" when linked or attached context reveals the subject.
398- For research, name the question domain rather than the requested research process.
399- Do not claim the work is complete.
400- Do not copy and truncate the user's message.
401${avoidRule(projectTitle, "quotes, labels, filler, and trailing punctuation")}
402- Use attached images as primary context for UI issues.
403- When a URL or attachment is the only source of the subject, use available tools to inspect it directly.
404- Local git history is not evidence of what a linked PR or issue is about. Never title the thread after branch names, commit messages, or merged commits found in the checkout.
405- If a linked PR or issue cannot be read, fall back to the user's stated action plus its number, such as "Take Over PR 8588". This is the one case where a PR or issue number belongs in the title.`;

416Determine the title in this order:
4171. Read the USER messages first. Identify the latest explicit durable goal. The original subject remains the subject until the user clearly changes what the thread is about.
4182. Use ASSISTANT messages to resolve vague links, unnamed code, and discovered product nouns. Do not promote one assistant finding into the thread subject unless the user adopts it as a new goal.
4193. Compare that subject with the previous title. Preserve accurate scope words, especially when earlier content is truncated. Replace the previous title when it is generic, artifact-based, a completion update, or contradicted by the thread.
4204. Title the durable subject and desired outcome, not the current workflow state.
421​
422Editorial rules:
423- 3-8 words, fewer than 40 characters.
424- Use a compact noun phrase or clear action phrase.
425- Preserve the umbrella subject when later messages focus on one finding, provider, platform, or implementation detail.
426- When asked about thread behavior, never include the referenced titles' topics. "[Fix login] why didn't this thread start?" means "Thread Startup Failure". Use linked topics only for requests about that work.
427- A thread progressing through research, planning, implementation, review, CI, merge, and monitoring has usually not changed subjects.
428- Ignore deliverables and operations such as mocks, plans, HTML, branches, PRs, tests, CI, commits, merging, and monitoring unless they are the actual topic.
429- Models, subagents, tools, output formats, and monitoring instructions do not belong in the title unless they are themselves the topic.
430- Treat final operational follow-ups and assistant completion summaries as weak evidence of subject.
431- For reviews, name the reviewed feature or system and its durable concern, not one finding from the review.
432- For research, name the question domain rather than the research process.
433- Do not claim the work is complete.
434- Do not copy and truncate a thread message.
435${avoidRule(projectTitle, "PR numbers, quotes, labels, filler, and trailing punctuation")}
436- Use attached images as primary context for UI issues.
437- When a URL or attachment is the only source of the subject, use available tools to inspect it directly.
438- Local git history is not evidence of what a linked PR or issue is about. Never title the thread after branch names, commit messages, or merged commits found in the checkout.
439- If a linked PR or issue cannot be read, fall back to the user's stated action plus its number, such as "Take Over PR 8588". This is the one case where a PR or issue number belongs in the title.
440- Keep the previous title unchanged if it is already accurate. Otherwise return a meaningfully improved title, not a cosmetic paraphrase.
441​
442Examples of the distinction:
443- A subagent-monitoring review that finds a Codex roster bug remains "Review Subagent Monitoring Risks," not "Codex Roster Bug Review."
444- A vague failing-test request later identified as a lazy thread-feed mismatch becomes "Fix Lazy Thread Feed Test," not "Prevent Mobile Feed Regressions."
445- A QR-sharing overhaul that ends with CI and merge work remains about QR sharing, not the PR lifecycle.`;
