Exclude score-only pull requests from REGISTER_EVERY_PR.

link_pull_request uses this text for its MCP description. Because the description excludes only read or reviewed pull requests, an agent following it can link a pull request that it only scored. Add the score exclusion and assert it in the MCP test. The runtime instructions already contain this exclusion, so no separate runtime-instruction change is needed.

Suggested fix 
-Do not link pull requests you only read or review.
+Do not link pull requests you only read, review, or score.
 expect(description).toContain("Do not link pull requests you only read or review.");
+expect(description).toContain("Do not link pull requests you only read, review, or score.");

34:
Update REGISTER_EVERY_PR so the link_pull_request MCP description excludes pull
requests that were only scored, alongside those only read or reviewed. Update
the relevant MCP test to assert that the description includes the score
exclusion; do not change runtime instructions.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr

Restrict linking to PRs created in this thread.

This prompt excludes only PRs the agent read, reviewed, or scored. It does not exclude an unrelated PR or an existing PR that the agent updates. That can create incorrect thread links. Apply the same allow-list to the canonical instructions, MCP tool description, and all Muse replay prompts.

Suggested instruction fix 
-When the t3-code MCP server exposes link_pull_request, call it with the full URL of every pull request you create, right after creating it.
+When the t3-code MCP server exposes link_pull_request, call it with the full URL of every pull request you create in this thread, right after creating it.

Restrict link_pull_request eligibility to pull requests created in the current
thread; do not link existing or unrelated pull requests, even if updated here.
Apply this rule consistently in the canonical instructions, MCP tool
description, and all Muse replay prompts, including the multi-turn Muse
transcript fixture.
