Move the 'never hand-edit .matchory/ or .editorconfig' rule into a PreToolUse hook that blocks those edits and names the sync command. Drop the stack list, commands and rename guide (all in the README and manifests), the tests/__init__.py note (ruff INP001 already fails without it) and the PostToolUse hook description.

Recent research suggests that large agent instruction files make coding agents perform worse. This PR keeps only what an agent cannot learn from the code, config or README, and turns rules into checks where the existing tooling allows it.

It needsjq; CI's style check still catches hand edits.\n\nAll five CI checks pass.\n\n## Please check\n- Dropped the note that the format-on-save hook does nothing withoutjq.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
