-`-r <project-root>` is optional. If you run Donna from the project root or any subdirectory, it will discover the root automatically.
+Some models are overtrained and don't want to follow instructions, in that case you can:
+
+- Switch to a more smart model, for example, from `gpt-5.3-codex (medium)` to `gpt-5.3-codex (high)`.
+- Tune instructions to make them more suitable for the particular model.
 
 4. Ask your agent to do something like `Add a button that …`. The agent will discover the appropriate workflow and run it.
