             ## Important Notes:
             - **CRITICAL**: ONLY include PRs with state "merged" from the last 7 days
-            - Use the --search flag with "merged:>=DATE" syntax to filter by merge date
+            - **CRITICAL**: EXCLUDE all PRs with titles starting with "chore: release" or "chore(release)"
+            - **CRITICAL**: Total character count MUST be under 6000 characters
+            - Use minimal spacing - single line breaks between PRs
+            - NO markdown headers (###, ##) - only bold text for titles
+            - NO links to PRs
+            - NO merged date in output
             - Use GitHub CLI (`gh`) for all operations
-            - Sort PRs by merge date (most recent first) - you can use `jq` to sort the JSON if needed
+            - Sort PRs by importance: breaking changes > features > bugfixes > other
             - If a PR has no description, write "(No description provided)"
-            - If there are more than 50 merged PRs, include all but add a note about high activity
             - Extract meaningful summary from PR body - look for the first paragraph or key bullet points
-            - Format dates in human-readable format, not ISO format
             - Parse JSON responses carefully using `jq` or similar tools
+            - If summary exceeds 6000 chars, truncate less important PRs and add "and X more PRs" at the end
 
             ## Saving the Markdown Output:
             After generating the markdown summary, save it to a file, BUT DO NOT COMMIT IT TO THE REPOSITORY.
 
-            ## Write tool issue:
-             - If the Write tool returns an error, create the summary.md file with the echo bash command.
+            ## Write Tool Fallback:
+            - First, attempt to use the Write tool to create `summary.md` with the markdown content
+            - If the Write tool returns ANY error or fails:
+              1. Use the Bash tool with the `echo` command instead
+              2. Use a heredoc to write the content: `cat > summary.md << 'EOF'` followed by your markdown content and `EOF` on a new line
+              3. Example: `cat > summary.md << 'EOF'\n[your markdown content here]\nEOF`
+              4. This ensures the file is always created regardless of Write tool issues
+            - Verify the file was created by running: `ls -lh summary.md`
