What

  • `git rm dev-docs/SPEC-backend.md` (728 lines) now that its content lives in co-located `AGENTS.md` files.
  • Removes the eager `@dev-docs/SPEC-backend.md` import from root `AGENTS.md` and points it at the co-located docs instead.
  • Rewrites the "Tech specifications" maintenance rule and the PR-stack bullet to update the nearest `AGENTS.md` rather than one monolithic spec.
  • Fixes the README link to the deleted file.

Why

That single `@import` loaded all 728 lines into every session (the real source of context bloat), and the "update the spec after every change" rule funneled all detail into one file that drifted stale.

Benefit

No more monolithic spec eagerly loaded per session; the maintenance discipline now points at local, co-located docs, removing the drift engine.

Stacked on #371.

delete dev-docs/SPEC-backend.md now that its content lives in co-located
AGENTS.md files. drop the eager @import from root AGENTS.md (that import
loaded all 728 lines into every session), point the root at the
co-located docs, and rewrite the maintenance rule to update the nearest
AGENTS.md rather than one monolithic spec. fix the README link too.
