Clarify Repo Turn Documentation Rules

Updated the repository instructions so Islandflow turn documents are clearly repo-local and styled through impeccable, without inheriting global non-repo computer-task styling.

Summary

The repo AGENTS.md now removes a stray non-repo location rule and explicitly states that impeccable is the styling and layout authority for Islandflow turn documents when available.

Changes Made

Context

The global agent instructions now distinguish repository implementation documentation from non-repo computer-task documentation. This repo file needed a small cleanup so it would not reintroduce ambiguity about location or styling.

Important Implementation Details

This was a documentation-only change in AGENTS.md. It changes future agent behavior but does not alter runtime code, tests, deployment scripts, or application behavior.

Expected Impact for End-Users

Future Islandflow turns should produce documentation in the repo's docs/turns/ folder and let impeccable drive the visual treatment, making repo documentation less likely to inherit global computer-task styling.

Validation

Issues, Limitations, and Mitigations

This clarification depends on future agents reading both global and repo instructions. The new wording is intentionally direct about repo scope, location, and styling to reduce that risk.
