PAPERCUTS.md is a lightweight, committed log where agents and devs jot down dev/agent/tooling friction (stale docs, script quirks, workflow snags) in the moment, to be triaged and trimmed later. AGENTS.md gains a rule telling agents to log such cuts proactively. The full procedure is the new `papercut` skill in the bloom-team-skills repo. Seeded with a first real cut hit while committing this change: the pre-commit hook fails confusingly when node_modules is empty. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

| PAPERCUTS.md | New file establishing the papercut log format, house rules, and a seed entry documenting a real pre-commit hook failure |

What
Adds the papercut system to this repo:
PAPERCUTS.md— a lightweight, committed log where agents and devs jot down small dev/agent/tooling friction (stale docs, script quirks, workflow snags) in the moment, without derailing whatever they were doing. Entries are triaged later ("trim the papercuts") and deleted once fixed, promoted (e.g. to YouTrack), or dropped — the log only holds open cuts.AGENTS.md— a short rule telling agents to log such cuts proactively as they hit them.The full procedure (entry format, routing between this repo's log and the environment/team-workflow log, add vs. trim modes) is the new
papercutskill in bloom-team-skills, which also carries a newTEAM-AGENTS.mdso the proactive rule reaches Claude sessions in every repo.The log is seeded with a first real cut hit while committing this very change: the pre-commit hook fails with a confusing
