## Summary
- Enforce **Conventional Commits** on PR titles (PRs are squash-merged,
so the PR title becomes the final commit message).
- Add a local `make lint-pr-title` target so contributors can validate
titles before pushing.
## Why
We squash-merge PRs, which means the final repository history is largely
shaped by **PR titles**. Enforcing a consistent Conventional Commits
format makes:
- **Release notes & changelogs easier to generate** (types like `feat` /
`fix` can be grouped automatically).
- **History easier to scan** (uniform structure, optional scopes,
explicit breaking changes via `!`).
- **Automation more reliable** (future tooling can infer category and
scope from the title).
## PR title format
```text
type(scope)!: subject
type: one of build|chore|ci|docs|feat|fix|perf|refactor|revert|style|test
scope: optional (e.g. web, api, actions, repo, …)
!: optional, indicates a breaking change
subject: short, imperative, no trailing period
```
## Examples
```text
feat(web): add dark mode toggle
fix(api): avoid panic when repo is missing
chore(ci): lint PR titles with commitlint
refactor(templates): reduce duplication in repo list rendering
feat!: remove legacy OAuth endpoint
```
## Local testing
```text
make deps-frontend
make lint-pr-title PR_TITLE="feat(web): add dark mode toggle"
```

`make test-sqlite#TestName` was much too slow, suggest `go test`. Also
added a similar instruction for js tests.

Adds points to `AGENTS.md` how to run single tests because AIs get these
wrong too often (either they trigger the whole suite or run into other
errors).

Add and modify more instruction for common problems in this codebase and
made the force-push instruction more strict.

1. Remove header line, useless context bloat
2. Reword all "before commiting" lines because some people may not be
using the agent to commit, only to write changes.
