# AGENTS - HybridLogicalClock Benchmarks

## Roles
- Backend engineer: performance harness and benchmark configuration.
- QA / bench engineer: deterministic inputs and repeatable benchmark fixtures.

## Required Reading
- docs/README.md
- docs/07_HIGH_LEVEL_ARCHITECTURE.md
- docs/modules/platform/architecture-overview.md
- src/__Libraries/AGENTS.md
- Current sprint file under docs/implplan/SPRINT_*.md

## Working Directory & Boundaries
- Primary scope: src/__Libraries/StellaOps.HybridLogicalClock.Benchmarks
- Benchmark target: src/__Libraries/StellaOps.HybridLogicalClock
- Avoid cross-module edits unless explicitly noted in the sprint file.

## Determinism and Safety
- Use fixed timestamps and seeded randomness for repeatable benchmark setup.
- Keep benchmark inputs bounded and offline.

## Testing
- Add minimal smoke tests if benchmark helpers are reused in production paths.
