didericis d329e511fd docs: drop docs/INDEX.md, add PRD README with format
Remove the one-line docs/INDEX.md (its directory pointers are covered
by docs/README.md's "when to write which document" table). Add
docs/prds/README.md documenting the PRD naming, Status lifecycle, and
section format. Repoint the AGENTS.md repository-layout list at the
new READMEs and add the decisions/ dir.

# bot-bottle
## What this is
bot-bottle spins up an isolated container for running AI coding agents with a
curated set of skills and env vars. The point is to run agents with broad
permissions inside a sandbox, so a misbehaving agent cannot reach the host.
A Python CLI (entry point `cli.py`, package `bot_bottle/`) orchestrates
the container lifecycle and the copying of skills and env vars into it.
## Goals
- Minimize risk of running agents with full permissions
- Allow me to easily spin up agent tasks in parallel
- Create isolated, well defined, easily updated, shareable agents
## Non-goals
- Communicating between agents directly
- Self hosted VMs (v1 uses local Docker containers, not VMs)
- Advanced agent auditing (lean on git history for auditing)
## Repository layout
- `README.md` — short public-facing description.
- `AGENTS.md` — this file, orientation for future agent sessions.
- `.gitignore` — OS junk.
- `bot-bottle.json` — legacy manifest of named agents (env / skills / prompt
per agent), consumed by `cli.py`. See "Manifest" under
"Intended design".
- `docs/README.md` — docs overview; when to write which document.
- `docs/prds/` — product requirement docs (see `docs/prds/README.md` for format).
- `docs/research/` — research notes.
- `docs/decisions/` — decision records (ADR-lite).
## Conventions
- Product requirement docs live in `docs/prds/`.
- Research notes live in `docs/research/`.
- Low dependencies by default. The project is Python, stdlib-first (no
runtime pip dependencies in the package itself; the only language
runtime is the Python 3.13 used by the CLI + sidecars). Ask before
adding new tools, runtimes, or package managers.
- Commit messages follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/):
`<type>[(scope)][!]: <description>`, where `<type>` is one of `feat`, `fix`,
`docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `perf`, `test`, `build`, `ci`, `chore`, `revert`.
A `commit-msg` hook in `.githooks/` enforces this. Activate it once per clone
with `git config core.hooksPath .githooks`.
## When you're unsure
Ask. Default to drafting in chat over editing files when the request is ambiguous.
