 When writing complex features or significant refactors, use an ExecPlan (as described in PLANS.md) from design to implementation.
 
-## PIOSEE Decision Model (Adopted)
-
-Use this as a compact, repeatable loop for anything from a one‑line bug fix to a multi‑quarter program.
-
-### P — **Problem**
-
-**Goal:** State the core problem and what “good” looks like.
-**Ask:** Who’s affected? What outcome is required? What happens if we do nothing?
-**Tip:** Include measurable target(s): error rate ↓, latency p95 ↓, revenue ↑, risk ↓.
-
-### I — **Information**
-
-**Goal:** Gather only the facts needed to move.
-**Ask:** What do logs/metrics/user feedback say? What constraints (security, compliance, budget, SLA/SLO)? What assumptions must we test?
-
-### O — **Options**
-
-**Goal:** Generate viable ways forward, including “do nothing.”
-**Ask:** What are 2–4 distinct approaches (patch, redesign, buy vs. build, defer)? What risks, costs, and second‑order effects?
-**Tip:** Check guardrails: reliability, security/privacy, accessibility, performance, operability, unit economics.
-
-### S — **Select**
-
-**Goal:** Decide deliberately and document why.
-**Ask:** Which option best meets the success criteria under constraints? Who is the decision owner? What’s the fallback/abort condition?
-**Tip:** Use lightweight scoring (e.g., Impact×Confidence÷Effort) to avoid bike‑shedding.
-
-### E — **Execute**
-
-**Goal:** Ship safely and visibly.
-**Ask:** What is the smallest safe slice? How do we de‑risk (feature flag, canary, dark launch, rollback)? Who owns what?
-**Checklist:** Traces/logs/alerts; security & privacy checks; docs & changelog; incident plan if relevant.
-
-### E — **Evaluate**
-
-**Goal:** Verify outcomes and learn.
-**Ask:** Did metrics hit targets? Any regressions or side effects? What will we keep/change next loop?
-**Output:** Post‑release review (or retro), decision log entry, follow‑ups (tickets), debt captured.
-**Tip:** If outcomes miss, either **iterate** (new Options) or **reframe** (back to Problem).

 ### Benchmarking workflow (repository-wide)
 
 The `scripts/run-single-benchmark.sh` helper is the supported path for spot-checking performance optimisations. It builds the chosen module with the `benchmarks` profile, constrains the benchmark selection to a single `@Benchmark` method, and when `--enable-jfr` is supplied it enforces repeatable profiling defaults (no warmup, ten 10-second measurements, one fork) while clearly reporting the destination of the generated JFR recording. Lean on this script whenever you need a reproducible measurement harness.

 Do **not** modify existing headers’ years.
 
+Right below the header block, insert an agent signature comment: Codex agents must add `// Some portions generated by Codex`, and GitHub Co-Pilot agents must add `// Some portions generated by Co-Pilot`. Align the wording with whatever agent name you are currently operating under.
+
+Immediately after creating any new Java source file, add the signature comment (per rule above) and run `cd scripts && ./checkCopyrightPresent.sh` (or an equivalent pushd/popd invocation) so you catch missing copyright/SPDX lines before moving on.
