Tianyi Cui 5bccda19d3 docs(rfc): keep implemented RFCs current; rewrite the llm-replay section in place
- Rewrite the snapshot-test RFC's replay-plugin section to state current
  reality directly (the plugin is the @deepseek-ai/dsh-llm-replay package,
  under the coverage gate) instead of keeping the old example-local text with a
  "superseded" note bolted on.
- Add docs/rfc/implemented/AGENTS.md (+ CLAUDE.md symlink): an implemented RFC
  must be kept current with what actually shipped — update paths/names/structure
  in the same change that moves the code, in place, not as an append-only
  changelog of its own drift. A reversal of the DECISION is still a new RFC.
- Reconcile docs/rfc/README.md: the "never edited into a different decision"
  rule now distinguishes tracking where a decision lives (required) from
  flipping the decision (forbidden), and the implemented/ bullet points at the
  new convention.

AGENTS.md — Implemented RFCs

These are RFCs whose decision has shipped. The repo-wide and docs-wide rules still apply (root AGENTS.md § "Type Safety and Documentation", docs/AGENTS.md); this file adds one rule specific to this folder.

Keep an implemented RFC current with what actually shipped

An RFC in implemented/ describes a decision that is now live code. Keep its description of the shipped reality accurate: when the implementation later moves a file, renames a package or symbol, changes a config key/default/error code, or relocates a plugin, update the RFC in the same change that touches the code — exactly as you would a package README. A stale implemented RFC (pointing at a path that no longer exists, naming a package that was renamed, describing a structure that was refactored) is worse than no RFC: a future reader trusts it and is misled.

Update it in place to state the current truth. Do not leave the outdated text in and bolt on a "superseded / now actually…" note — that makes the document a changelog of its own drift and forces the reader to reconstruct the present from a pile of corrections. Write what is true now.

This is not a license to rewrite the decision

Keeping the shipped-state description current is about facts (paths, names, structure, defaults) — not about silently flipping the decision and its rationale into a different one. If the underlying choice itself is reversed or materially changed (not just relocated), that is a new decision: write a new RFC and cross-link, per rfc/README.md ("An RFC is never edited into a different decision"). The line: a refactor that moves where the decision is realized → edit this RFC to match; a reversal of what was decided → a new RFC.

When in doubt, ask whether a reader following this RFC to the code would land on something real. If not, it needs updating.
