The user asks to read RH-WEBSITE.md. But memory says: "Website agent shares the repo — research side must never read/edit web/ or RH-WEBSITE.md; user directive 2026-08-19". Hmm, but the user is explicitly asking me to read it now. The memory says never read it. But the user explicitly requests it now — explicit user instruction overrides. However, the memory says it's a hard user rule that the research side must never read it. But this could be the website agent side asking? The current working directory is D:\Python\Quantum, the research side. The rule says research side must never read/edit web/ or RH-WEBSITE.md. The user explicitly asks to read it. Conflicting: memory says never read, user explicitly asks now. Memory instructions: if user says to ignore memory, proceed as if empty. But here the user directly asks to read a file that a prior user directive said never to read. This is ambiguous — maybe the user is now working as the website agent, or wants me to switch roles. The safe move: flag the conflict and ask. Actually, the memory rules say memory can become stale; verify. The prior directive was "research side must never read/edit web/ or RH-WEBSITE.md". The user now explicitly asks to read it. An explicit current user instruction generally overrides a past stored preference, but given it's a "hard user rule" about role separation, I should ask for clarification rather than blindly violate or blindly follow. Use AskUserQuestion.
There's a standing rule in my memory (your directive from 2026-08-19): the research side must never read/edit `web/` or `RH-WEBSITE.md` — those belong to the website agent side. Your request now conflicts with that.
