LGTM. Good guard -- small-parameter explore models (minimax, kimi etc.) are tempted to shortcut via .sisyphus/ plan files instead of actually searching the codebase. Making this explicit in the prompt is the right approach.

Summary
Problem
Small-parameter models (Minimax-M2.5, M2.7) assigned explore tasks read
.sisyphus/plan and evidence files and immediately consider the task complete without actually searching the codebase. This causes missed findings during validation and review passes.Fix
Added a "No shortcut via plan files" constraint to the explore agent prompt that explicitly prohibits reading
.sisyphus/directory files as a substitute for codebase search. The agent must use search tools (grep, glob, ast_grep, LSP) to find real source code.Changes
src/agents/explore.ts.sisyphus/exclusion constraint to promptFixes #2880
Summary by cubic
Stop the explore agent from shortcutting by reading
.sisyphus/plan and evidence files. Adds a prompt rule that requires using search tools (grep, glob, ast_grep, LSP) to find real code and fixes #2880.Written for commit 63e0747. Summary will update on new commits.
