echo TAGS >> ~/.agignore
It's a trade-off: Risk spamming users with too many results or risk silently ignoring files that users care about. The cost of the latter is much higher than the former, so Ag searches all non-hidden text files by default. If your tags were ignored by your source control, or they were hidden, or ignored in a .agignore file, you'd get your desired behavior.

For anyone looking at this issue in the future, if you're trying to exclude the file tags (from ctags) from search, but to include tags/ as a directory in your searches
(does not work, tags/ directory is still ignored)
tags
!tags/
But this workaround does work - the file is ignored but the files in the directory aren't.
[t]ags
!tags/
