Yeah. It's very easy to give a definitive "yes", if you've ever worked with coding agents in any capacity. I use them in much the same way as you, there are a bunch of things that would be nice for the agent to know, specifically for me, the project, or how I would like it to run as an example: git or coding review loops ( i use roborev ). Asking the agent to do these things every time, is very time consuming.

Maybe read the paper... It says that the only thing that are helpful is indeed what you describe here: basic commands and context about running / working on the project, rather than information about the business or technological aspects of the project itself.
