Good is an adjective (modifies a noun), and well is an adverb (modifies a verb). He was a good boy, or I got a good grade, vs. He did well on the test, or She danced really well.

i wouldn’t say rule per say but difference in definition.
I am well
I am well implies that i am doing fine physically, some cases, mentally
I am good
I am good seems more like an alignment. opposite of evil.
If definition of good can be used instead of well, then there is no rule saying that you have to use well.
Well? did that answer your question?
good, did that answer your question?

good is stronger than better in the sense that if we say something is good means it is good but if we say something is better doenst mean its good
well is rather weaker than good as its a lesser power ful word the one saying well means he is making some level of compromise in his satisfaction
