+## Dependency sharing on this Mac
+
+- When this checkout is under `/Users/renameadmin/Desktop/Local.Git/gitea/` (including its local aliases/worktrees), read the **Gitea dependency sharing** section in `/Users/renameadmin/Desktop/Local.Git/AGENTS.md` before dependency work.
+- Reuse working installed dependencies; do not reinstall at the start of every chat. For authorized pnpm installs, share `$HOME/Library/pnpm/store`, prefer cached packages and keep the lockfile frozen, using the command in that section.
+- Preserve this project's package manager and pinned versions. Keep independent `node_modules` directories; do not symlink another project's entire dependency directory. Installation and global/system changes still require their existing authorization.
