dear_llm.md

If you find yourself needing to repeated give the LLM instructions on how to work with your repository, you can create a file named dear_llm.md in the root of your repository and put the instructions there. Sketch will read this file at the beginning of a session and use it to inform the LLM how to work with your repository.

Keep the file short and to the point, as it will be read every time a new session starts and you do not want to distract the LLM with too much information.

The best way to decide what should go in your dear_llm.md file is to read the transcript of how Sketch works with your code. If you find on repeated sessions that the model has to make multiple attempts to do a standard task, like starting a server as a background process, or what endpoint to visit to see a particular part of your application, a short note can be helpful.
