+# Data Management Service Agent Instructions
+
+## General
+
+* Make only high confidence suggestions when reviewing code changes.
+* Never change NuGet.config files unless explicitly asked to.
+
+### Code Quality
+
+* **REQUIRED**: Obey the `.editorconfig` file settings at all times. The project uses:
+  * UTF-8 character encoding
+  * LF line endings
+  * 2-space indentation
+  * Spaces for indentation style
+  * Final newlines required
+  * Trailing whitespace must be trimmed
+* **REQUIRED**: run the appropriate build process and correct any build errors with the following scripts:
+  * If modifying code in `./src/dms` then run `dotnet build --no-restore ./src/dms/EdFi.DataManagementService.sln`
+  * If modifying code in `./src/config` then run `dotnet build --no-restore ./src/config/EdFi.DmsConfigurationService.sln`
+
+## Formatting
+
+* Apply code-formatting style defined in `.editorconfig`.
+* Prefer file-scoped namespace declarations and single-line using directives.
+* Insert a newline before the opening curly brace of any code block (e.g., after `if`, `for`, `while`, `foreach`, `using`, `try`, etc.).
+* Ensure that the final return statement of a method is on its own line.
+* Use pattern matching and switch expressions wherever possible.
+* Use `nameof` instead of string literals when referring to member names.
+
+### Nullable Reference Types
+
+* Declare variables non-nullable, and check for `null` at entry points.
+* Always use `is null` or `is not null` instead of `== null` or `!= null`.
+* Trust the C# null annotations and don't add null checks when the type system says a value cannot be null.
+
+### Testing
+
+* We use NUnit tests.
+* We use FluentAssertions for assertions.
+* Use FakeItEasy for mocking in tests.
+* Copy existing style in nearby files for test method names and capitalization.
