 You can use the `extra_instructions` configuration option to give the AI model additional instructions for the `improve` tool.
 Be specific, clear, and concise in the instructions. With extra instructions, you are the prompter. Specify relevant aspects that you want the model to focus on.

+- Recommended to limit the text to 800 lines or fewer. Here’s why:
 
+     1) Extremely long best practices documents may not be fully processed by the AI model.
+  
+     2) A lengthy file probably represent a more "**generic**" set of guidelines, which the AI model is already familiar with. The objective is to focus on a more targeted set of guidelines tailored to the specific needs of this project.

+##### Local and global best practices
+By default, PR-Agent will look for a local `best_practices.md` wiki file in the root of the relevant local repo.
+
+If you want to enable also a global `best_practices.md` wiki file, set first in the global configuration file:
+
+```
+[best_practices]
+enable_global_best_practices = false
+```
+
+Then, create a `best_practices.md` wiki file in the root of [global](https://pr-agent-docs.codium.ai/usage-guide/configuration_options/#global-configuration-file) configuration repository,  `pr-agent-settings`.

-Note that while the `extra instructions` are more related to the way the `improve` tool behaves, the `best_practices.md` file is a general guideline for the way code should be written in the repo.
+
+#### How to combine `extra instructions` and `best practices`
+
+The `extra instructions` configuration is more related to the `improve` tool prompt. It can be used, for example, to avoid specific suggestions ("Don't suggest to add try-except block", "Ignore changes in toml files", ...) or to emphasize specific aspects or formats ("Answer in Japanese", "Give only short suggestions", ...)
+
+In contrast, the `best_practices.md` file is a general guideline for the way code should be written in the repo.
+
 Using a combination of both can help the AI model to provide relevant and tailored suggestions.
