The file agent/instructions.md no longer matched the persona it records.

Still described the retired Letta runtime. The ## Memory section was written for the self-hosted MemFS brain removed in #22: records under records/<topic>.md, system/ loaded every turn, a memory checkout with no remote, and the weekly local backup as the durability story. Data is one Zo persona and one Discord bridge now, and this repository's own AGENTS.md already says Data keeps no runtime memory, so the section contradicted both the runtime and the guide.

Read-only bullet had drifted. It said read-only against the codebase and ended by calling memory the one place Data writes. The persona says read-only against repositories and stops at the approval gate.

Result: the file's sections are now the persona's sections (How you answer, What you own, and what you do not, Handoffs), and the two touched passages match the live persona text.

No runtime effect: the persona is what answers, and nothing reads this file. It exists so the next editor has an accurate record.

The file still carried the Letta MemFS memory section from the retired
self-hosted runtime (PR #22): records under records/<topic>.md, a memory
checkout with no remote, the weekly local backup as the durability story.
None of that exists now, and the repository's own AGENTS.md already says
Data keeps no runtime memory. The read-only bullet also still said
"against the codebase" and treated memory as a write surface.

Drops the Memory section and aligns that bullet with the persona text.
