From 6085a0afd54804e1bfdfb95101e33a62b3856258 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: marcusquinn <6428977+marcusquinn@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2026 19:32:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] feat: add mission statement with ROI and self-improvement directives Add foundational mission block to prompts/build.txt (system prompt root) establishing purpose, cost/time awareness, self-healing, self-improvement, and capability growth.
