### How It Works

1. **Primitives Discovery**: Scans `.apm/` and `.github/` directories for instructions, prompts, and agents
2. **Dependency Merging**: Incorporates primitives from installed packages in `apm_modules/`
2. **Dependency Merging**: Incorporates primitives from installed packages in `apm_modules/`; each package is scanned for both `.apm/` and `.github/` layouts (e.g. `.apm/instructions/` and `.github/instructions/` are both discovered)

This step says "Incorporates primitives" but this page later notes that apm compile outputs (and therefore effectively merges) instructions only (prompts/agents are handled by apm install). To avoid confusion, consider changing "primitives" here to "instructions" (or "instruction primitives") while keeping the .apm/ vs .github/ layout clarification.

3. **Optimization**: Applies mathematical context optimization (see below)
4. **Format Generation**: Outputs native files for each target agent format
