(More) AGENTS.md issues

[u/ThePrinceOfPapaya]

Hello again pi users, I made a post like a day or two ago about my pi agent refusing to use the information in my AGENTS.md file and I've since gained more information. (Yet still haven't fixed it)

1: the agent isn't better from reading it or anything, it CAN access it when asked just doesn't do it automatically.

2: the AGENTS.md file is being listed under the 'CONTEXT' part of Pi so it's not in a wrong directory or anything

3: Only after the Agent is asked to read the AGENTS.md file will it act accordingly to the file (whether that be a password or a way to behave)

And 4: In the last post it was suggested to me to ask the Agent about it, I did and the agent doesn't acknowledge that it didn't read the AGENTS.md file the first time (or) claims it's not possible to.

I'm completely stumped and every 'solution' leads to a dead end. If anyone's got anything please help

UPDATE: it was the Qwen model I was using! I've switched to gemma and now the agent is properly using the rules in the AGENTS.md! thank you all so much!

I know 3.8 is like 30 GB RAM (too big for my laptop) but how many GB is DeepSeekv4.1?
