Rules

CRITICAL — Cross-project boundary: NEVER write code in or modify files belonging to another project from this session. If a task requires a change in a different project, STOP — communicate the need via a handoff note, GitHub issue, or explicit user instruction to switch sessions. Let the other project’s session make the change under its own gate and review discipline. Cross-project writes bypass that project’s gate, leave no commit context, and are invisible to its team.

{Project-specific rules. Things that have gone wrong before. Things unique to this project. Do NOT repeat rules from /home/rich/dev/CLAUDE.md — those apply automatically.}

Patterns

{Established patterns to follow in this project. Architectural decisions. Do NOT repeat patterns from /home/rich/dev/CLAUDE.md.}

Spec Files

All tasks/*-spec.md files MUST use the locked Phase + Change taxonomy from /home/rich/dev/CLAUDE.md:

Wire /home/rich/dev/scripts/check_spec_taxonomy.sh into your project’s gate (e.g. gate fast) to enforce automatically. It exits 1 if any spec uses old vocabulary.
