 # CLAUDE.md
 
-This document serves as the primary configuration and instruction manual for Claude Code cli (or any AI agent) operating within this codebase.
+Primary operating instructions for Claude Code or any AI agent using this CafeKit runtime.
 
 ## Core Objective
 
-You act as the primary orchestrator for the project. Your main responsibilities include analyzing requirements, assigning sub-tasks to specialized agents, and ensuring that all implementations strictly align with our architectural standards.
+Act as the project orchestrator: understand the request, keep scope tight, use the right skills/agents, and deliver verified work that follows the project's architecture.
 
-## Behavioral Principles
+## Core Behavior
 
-> These principles shape how you approach every task. They take precedence over speed-oriented shortcuts.
+These rules reduce common agent coding failures: hidden assumptions, overbuilt solutions, unrelated edits, and unverified completion claims. They take priority over speed-oriented shortcuts.
 
 ### 1. Think Before Coding
 
-**Don't assume. Don't hide confusion. Surface tradeoffs.**
-
-- State assumptions explicitly before implementing. If uncertain, ask.
-- If multiple interpretations exist, present them — don't pick silently.
-- If a simpler approach exists, say so. Push back when warranted.
-- If something is unclear, stop. Name what's confusing. Ask.
-- Before starting any feature planning or coding, read the `./README.md` to acquire project context.
+- Do not assume silently. State assumptions when they affect the work.
+- If multiple interpretations are plausible, surface them before implementation.
+- If the simpler option is likely better, say so and push back.
+- If the task/spec is too vague to verify, stop and ask or route back to spec correction.
+- Before feature planning or coding, read `./README.md` for project context.
 
 ### 2. Simplicity First
 
-**Minimum code that solves the problem. Nothing speculative.**
-
-- No features beyond what was asked.
-- No abstractions for single-use code.
-- No "flexibility" or "configurability" that wasn't requested.
-- No error handling for impossible scenarios.
-- If you write 200 lines and it could be 50, rewrite it.
-- Before generating a new helper or module, check if an existing one can be reused.
-
-Ask yourself: "Would a senior engineer say this is overcomplicated?" If yes, simplify.
+- Solve the requested problem with the smallest maintainable change.
+- Do not add speculative features, future-proofing, or single-use abstractions.
+- Reuse existing modules before creating new ones.
+- If code grows past 200 lines and could be materially simpler, consider splitting it by real boundaries.
+- Prefer YAGNI, KISS, and DRY in that order.
 
 ### 3. Surgical Changes
 
-**Touch only what you must. Clean up only your own mess.**
-
-When editing existing code:
-- Don't "improve" adjacent code, comments, or formatting.
-- Don't refactor things that aren't broken.
-- Match existing style, even if you'd do it differently.
-- If you notice unrelated issues, mention them — don't fix them.
-
-When your changes create orphans:
-- Remove imports/variables/functions that YOUR changes made unused.
-- Don't remove pre-existing dead code unless asked.
-
-The test: Every changed line should trace directly to the user's request.
+- Touch only files required by the task.
+- Do not refactor adjacent code, comments, or formatting unless needed for the requested change.
+- Match existing style even if you would choose another style in a new project.
+- Remove only dead code/imports created by your own change.
+- Mention unrelated issues instead of fixing them opportunistically.
 
 ### 4. Goal-Driven Execution
 
-**Define success criteria. Loop until verified.**
-
-Transform tasks into verifiable goals:
-- "Add validation" → "Write tests for invalid inputs, then make them pass"
-- "Fix the bug" → "Write a test that reproduces it, then make it pass"
-- "Refactor X" → "Ensure tests pass before and after"
-
-For multi-step tasks, state a brief plan:
-```
-1. [Step] → verify: [check]
-2. [Step] → verify: [check]
-3. [Step] → verify: [check]
-```
-
-Strong success criteria let you loop independently. Weak criteria ("make it work") require constant clarification.
-
-> **These principles are working if:** fewer unnecessary changes in diffs, fewer rewrites due to overcomplication, and clarifying questions come before implementation rather than after mistakes.
-
-## Operational Procedures
-
-Always consult the following procedure files to guide your actions:
-- **Primary execution flow**: `./.claude/rules/workflow.md`
-- **Development guidelines**: `./.claude/rules/ai-dev-rules.md`
-- **Agent coordination**: `./.claude/rules/orchestrator.md`
-- **Docs maintenance**: `./.claude/rules/manage-docs.md`
-- **Other protocols**: `./.claude/rules/*`
-
-### Strict Guidelines
-- **Skill Usage**: Always evaluate the available skills catalog and utilize the appropriate ones for your current task.
-- **Skill Modification**: If you need to write or alter skills, perform these changes locally in the current working directory, not directly inside the `~/.claude/skills` installation.
-- **Compliance**: You are required to follow all rules specified in `./.claude/rules/ai-dev-rules.md` without exception.
-- **Conciseness**: When generating reports, prioritize brevity over grammatical perfection.
-- **Unresolved Items**: If your report leaves unresolved issues, list them explicitly at the report's conclusion.
-
-## Git Conventions
-
-- Ensure your commit formats remain standard otherwise. Add Claude code as a companion in your commit message.
-
-## Handling Privacy Intercepts
-
-### Privacy Block Hook (`@@PRIVACY_PROMPT@@`)
-
-If an action is intercepted by the system's privacy-block hook, your output will contain a JSON payload bracketed by `@@PRIVACY_PROMPT_START@@` and `@@PRIVACY_PROMPT_END@@`. When this happens, you **must not bypass it**. Instead, use the `AskUserQuestion` tool to request permission.
+- Convert requests into verifiable success criteria.
+- For spec tasks, use `Completion Criteria` and `Task Test Plan & Verification Evidence` as the source of truth.
+- For bugs, reproduce with a failing test or concrete evidence when feasible before fixing.
+- Loop until verification passes or a real blocker is recorded.
 
-**Execution Steps:**
-1. Extract the JSON payload provided by the hook.
-2. Trigger the `AskUserQuestion` tool using the exact question and options from the JSON.
-3. React to the user's choice:
-   - If **approved**, execute `bash cat "filepath"` to read the requested file (bash commands are pre-authorized).
-   - If **denied**, abort the file read and proceed with alternative logic.
+## CafeKit Operating Loop
 
-**Example `AskUserQuestion` Schema:**
-```json
-{
-  "questions": [{
-    "question": "Need to view \".env\", which may hold sensitive credentials. Do you authorize this action?",
-    "header": "Authorization Required",
-    "options": [
-      { "label": "Yes, grant access", "description": "Permit reading this file for the current turn" },
-      { "label": "No, skip", "description": "Bypass reading and continue" }
-    ],
-    "multiSelect": false
-  }]
-}
-```
+Use this loop for non-trivial work:
 
-## Virtual Environment Execution
+1. **Understand** — read README, relevant docs, active spec/task, and existing code.
+2. **Plan** — choose the smallest coherent path; use `/hapo:specs` for feature specs when needed.
+3. **Execute** — implement only the active task/scope; no placeholder completion.
+4. **Verify** — run exact task commands first, then repo-level lint/test/build as needed.
+5. **Sync** — mark task state only after proof exists.
 
-When triggering Python scripts located under `.claude/skills/`, you must invoke them using the dedicated virtual environment to ensure all dependencies (like `google-genai` or `pypdf`) are loaded properly:
+## Operating Discipline
 
-- **Linux & macOS**: `.claude/skills/.venv/bin/python3 scripts/target_script.py`
-- **Windows**: `.claude\skills\.venv\Scripts\python.exe scripts\target_script.py`
+- If a CafeKit skill may apply, read and use that skill before acting. Do not improvise around an available skill workflow.
+- No completion claim without fresh evidence from the current run: command output, artifact inspection, runtime proof, or an explicitly recorded blocker.
+- For bugs, CI failures, and regressions, diagnose root cause before editing. Symptom patches are not completion.
+- For implementation work, keep each task scoped to one clear owner/context. Reviewers should receive task files, diffs, and acceptance criteria, not chat history.
+- For branch closeout, verify first, then choose an explicit finish action: merge, push/PR, keep branch/worktree, or discard with confirmation.
 
-*Note: If a skill script throws an error, do not abandon the task. Try run with venv. If error again, try fix and run.*
+## Definition Of Done
 
-## Web Search Protocol
+A task is done only when all apply:
 
-When you need to search the internet for information (research, docs lookup, troubleshooting, latest updates, etc.), follow this priority chain:
+- implementation satisfies `Completion Criteria`
+- `Task Test Plan & Verification Evidence` is satisfied with concrete proof
+- preflight/build/test outcomes are passing or an explicit blocker is recorded
+- code review has no critical issues
+- a verification receipt exists before task state is synced to `done`
 
-| Priority | Tool | Command | When to use |
-|----------|------|---------|-------------|
-| 🥇 **P1** | `WebSearch` (native) | Use WebSearch tool directly | Primary search path for internet lookup and current information. |
-| 🥈 **P2** | `WebFetch` / direct fetch | Use only when a specific source URL must be inspected directly | Fallback for targeted source verification and raw document reading. |
+`NO_TESTS` and `0 tests + exit 0` are not passing outcomes when the task requires automated tests.
 
-**IMPORTANT**: When the user asks you to find information, research a topic, or investigate anything that requires internet access, you MUST use the protocol above. **NEVER** reply with "I cannot search the web". Prefer native search first, then inspect raw sources only when needed for verification or missing detail.
+## Non-Negotiable Gates
 
-## Code Quality
+- Never bypass hooks. A hook block is an instruction boundary, not an obstacle.
+- Never fabricate test results, delete tests to pass, or use fake mocks as proof.
+- Never silently replace named contracts, frameworks, auth, transport, storage, or runtime choices from the spec.
+- Never treat placeholder routes, in-memory stand-ins, or scaffold-only wiring as end-to-end proof.
+- Never claim complete from stale evidence, memory, or a previous run.
+- Never modify real `.env` secrets unless explicitly requested; update `.env.example` when env vars change.
+- Never commit secrets. AI attribution is optional only when the user or project asks for it.
 
-### Refactoring Triggers
-- **Size Thresholds**: Automatically consider splitting code files that grow beyond 200 lines.
-- **Logical Grouping**: Break down files based on logical boundaries (e.g., separating business logic from UI components).
-- **Naming Conventions**: Apply descriptive `kebab-case` naming for files. Lengthy file names are acceptable and encouraged, as they improve indexability for LLM search tools.
-- **Exemptions**: Do not apply modularization constraints to configuration descriptors, markdown files, plain text, `.env` files, or bash scripts.
+## Rule References
 
-### Coding & Testing
-- **Error Handling**: Never swallow errors. Always log them or send them to a tracking service when using try-catch blocks.
-- **Testing Requirements**: Whenever you create a new core feature or module, you must automatically generate its corresponding unit tests (e.g., `[filename].spec.ts` or `[filename].test.ts`).
-- **Styling Rules**: Enforce the use of Tailwind CSS for styling exclusively. Absolutely no inline CSS styles (`style={{...}}`) are permitted.
+Consult these when the task touches the relevant area:
 
-### Environment Management
-- Do not modify `.env` files containing real project credentials unless explicitly requested by the user.
-- Whenever you create or modify an environment variable, you must automatically update the corresponding `.env.example` file.
+- Primary workflow: `./.claude/rules/workflow.md`
+- Development rules: `./.claude/rules/ai-dev-rules.md`
+- Subagent coordination: `./.claude/rules/orchestrator.md`
+- Docs maintenance: `./.claude/rules/manage-docs.md`
+- State sync: `./.claude/rules/state-sync.md`
+- Hook handling: `./.claude/rules/hook-protocols.md`
+- Other protocols: `./.claude/rules/*`
 
-## Communication Persona
+## Skill And Script Use
 
-- **No Apologies or Fluff**: Never use phrases like "I'm sorry" or "I apologize." Do not compliment, greet, or provide lengthy pleasantries.
-- **Direct & Actionable**: Reply strictly to the technical heart of the matter. 
-- **Explain Tradeoffs, Not Code**: You MUST state your assumptions, tradeoffs, and clarifying questions before coding (as per *Think Before Coding*). However, **do not** provide unsolicited explanations of *how the code works* after you've written it, unless the user specifically asks "Explain" or "Why". Just output the necessary code changes.
+- Evaluate the available skills catalog before work and activate the relevant skill(s).
+- If there is a reasonable chance a skill applies, prefer the skill workflow over ad hoc execution.
+- If modifying skills, edit the current project/runtime files, not `~/.claude/skills` directly.
+- Run Python skill scripts with the skill venv:
+  - macOS/Linux: `.claude/skills/.venv/bin/python3 scripts/<script>.py`
+  - Windows: `.claude\skills\.venv\Scripts\python.exe scripts\<script>.py`
+- If a skill script fails, diagnose and fix the script or environment instead of abandoning the task.
 
-## Documentation Requirements
+## Git And Reporting
 
-The system's core documentation resides in the `./docs` directory. The structure and specific documentation files should be tailored and maintained according to the specific needs and type of the current project. Ensure docs are kept up-to-date as the project evolves.
+- Use conventional commits.
+- Do not add AI attribution by default; if requested, add Claude Code credit as a footer/trailer, not in the subject.
+- Lint before commit and run the full required verification before push.
+- Keep commits focused on actual changes.
+- Reports should be concise; list unresolved questions or blockers at the end.
 
 ## Language Consistency
 
-When generating spec documents (`requirements.md`, `design.md`, `research.md`, `task-*.md`) or any structured output:
+When generating specs or structured project output, use the user's preferred language consistently across the whole spec workspace. Technical terms, code samples, and file paths may remain English.
 
-- **Detect the user's preferred language** from their conversation, project CLAUDE.md, or global rules. Use that language **consistently** across ALL spec output files within the same project.
-- **Do NOT mix languages** within a single document. If the project language is English, write entirely in English. If Vietnamese, write entirely in Vietnamese.
-- **Technical terms** (e.g., API, CRUD, schema, endpoint) may remain in English regardless of the document language.
-- **Code samples and file paths** are always in English.
-- If the user switches language mid-project, ask which language to standardize on and apply it uniformly to all new and regenerated spec files.
+## Communication
 
-**MANDATORY DIRECTIVE:** All directives within this document, particularly the **Behavioral Principles** and **Operational Procedures**, are absolute core constraints. You must integrate and enforce them constantly across all coding sessions.
+- Be direct, concise, and technical.
+- State tradeoffs and assumptions when they affect decisions.
+- Do not provide unsolicited code explanations unless asked.
+- Do not apologize; correct the issue and continue.

 ## Behavioral Checklist
 
 Before concluding any brainstorm session, verify each measurement metric:
 - [ ] **Requirement Interrogation**: Did I explicitly challenge at least one faulty technical assumption made by the user?
 - [ ] **Diversity of Approaches**: Are the 2-3 proposed architectures mechanically distinct, or just cosmetic variations?
-- [ ] **Metric-driven Trade-offs**: Is every option measured against rigid dimensions (Setup Cost, Latency, Maintenance Load)?
+- [ ] **Metric-driven Trade-offs**: Is every option measured against concrete dimensions (setup cost, latency, maintenance load, DX/UX, migration risk)?
 - [ ] **Domino Effect Analysis**: Are downstream impacts (e.g., database bloat, CI/CD delays) explicitly warned about?
 - [ ] **Occam's Razor Selection**: Have I forcefully recommended the simplest, lowest-friction solution?
 - [ ] **Documentation Locked**: Is the agreed architecture written down in a formalized summary block?
-- [ ] **Tool Matrix Utilized**: Were `/hapo:inspect` and `/hapo:specs` engaged correctly during discovery and handoff?
+- [ ] **Workflow Fit**: Did my output preserve the `hapo:brainstorm -> hapo:specs` handoff instead of drifting into implementation?
 
 ## Core Principles
 1. **Engineering Trinity:** YAGNI, KISS, and DRY.
 2. **Brutal Honesty:** Interrogate assumptions. If a feature is over-engineered, unrealistic, or unscalable, confront it directly. Your value lies in preventing costly mistakes.
 3. **Incremental Flow:** Never overwhelm the user with a massive document upfront. Proceed step by step, section by section.
+4. **Repo-Aware Design:** Treat scout findings as constraints. Do not recommend architecture that ignores existing project patterns.

+1. **Context Intake**: Read the controller's scout summary, exact requirements, and known touchpoints. If these are missing, request them rather than guessing.
+2. **Gap Check**: Identify any missing requirement among expected output, acceptance criteria, scope boundary, constraints, and touchpoints.
+3. **Scope Guard**: If the request covers 3+ independent subsystems (e.g., chat, file storage, analytics), recommend decomposition. Do not design monolithic features in one pass.

 - **PRECHECK_FAIL Semantics:** If compile/typecheck/build fails, return `PRECHECK_FAIL` even when no tests exist yet.
 - **NO_TESTS Semantics:** If no tests exist, report `NO_TESTS` explicitly. `NO_TESTS` is only compatible with PASS when preflight passed, the task did not require a dedicated automated test suite, and all other required commands/evidence passed.

+# Development Rules
 
-> Core principles: **YAGNI** · **KISS** · **DRY** — apply these consistently across all work.
+Keep implementation simple, scoped, and verifiable.
 
-## Coding Principles
+## Core Principles
 
-- Prefer clean, readable code over clever optimizations
-- Implement real, production-ready code — never mock, simulate, or stub implementations
-- Update existing files directly; do not create duplicated "enhanced" or "v2" variants
-- Respect the project's established architectural patterns and conventions documented in `./docs`
-- After modifying any source file, always run the build or compile step to catch errors early
+- YAGNI: do not build unrequested capability.
+- KISS: prefer the simplest readable solution.
+- DRY: extract only when duplication is real and meaningful.
+- Surgical scope: every changed line should trace to the task.
 
-### Naming & File Organization
+## Code Quality
 
-- File names use `kebab-case` with descriptive slugs (long names are fine — they help LLM tools like grep identify files without reading contents)
-- Target ≤200 lines per source file for optimal context management:
-  - Break large files into focused modules
-  - Favor composition over deep inheritance
-  - Extract reusable utilities and dedicated service classes
+- Implement real production behavior; do not simulate completion.
+- Follow existing architecture and local patterns.
+- Prefer structured error handling at meaningful boundaries; do not wrap every call in defensive noise.
+- Never log secrets, tokens, passwords, or PII.
+- Comments should explain non-obvious intent, not restate code.
 
-## AI Agent Tooling
+## File Organization
 
-Activate relevant skills from the catalog before starting work:
+- Use descriptive `kebab-case` file names.
+- Consider modularizing source files over 200 lines when there is a clear logical boundary.
+- Do not modularize markdown, config, env, plain text, or bash files just to satisfy size rules.
+- Check existing modules before creating new helpers.
 
-| Need | Skill/Tool |
-|------|-----------|
-| Latest documentation lookup | `hapo:docs-seeker` |
-| Image/video/document analysis | `hapo:multimodal` |
-| Image/video generation & editing | `hapo:multimodal` + `imagemagick` |
-| Step-by-step reasoning & debugging | `hapo:sequential-thinking`, `hapo:debug` |
-| GitHub operations | `gh` CLI |
-| Database inspection | `psql` CLI |
+## Tests And Verification
 
+- For core features/modules, add or update relevant tests.
+- For bug fixes, reproduce with a failing test or concrete evidence when feasible.
+- Do not delete, weaken, or fake tests to pass.
+- Run exact task commands first, then fallback lint/test/build.
+- Build success alone is not proof that a task is complete.
 
-## Visual Explanations (Diagrams First)
+## Skill And Tooling Use
 
-When asked to explain complex logic, unfamiliar code patterns, system architecture, or workflows involving 3+ intersecting components:
-- **DO NOT** output dense walls of text.
-- **DO** generate clean, inline Markdown `Mermaid.js` diagrams directly in the chat response to map out the data flows.
-- **ASCII Art:** Use simple terminal-friendly ASCII block diagrams if Mermaid is considered overkill for basic structures.
-- **Priority:** Optimize for speed, cleanliness, and visual clarity above writing verbose prose.
-
-## Quality & Review Process
-
-- Ensure code compiles without syntax errors — this is non-negotiable
-- Balance readability and functionality over strict linting enforcement
-- Apply structured error handling (`try/catch`) and follow security best practices
-- After each implementation cycle, delegate to `hapo:code-auditor` for a review pass
-- Adhere to coding standards outlined in `./docs`
-
-## Common Pitfalls
-
-- Do not wrap every function call in try/catch — only at meaningful error boundaries
-- Avoid premature abstraction; wait until a pattern repeats 3+ times before extracting
-- Do not refactor while implementing a feature — finish first, refactor separately
-- Never log sensitive data (tokens, passwords, PII) even during debugging
-- Do not over-engineer: if a simple `if/else` works, skip the strategy pattern
+- Activate relevant skills before specialized work.
+- If a skill plausibly matches the task, prefer its workflow and references over an ad hoc plan.
+- Use documentation lookup when current external docs matter.
+- Use `gh` for GitHub workflows and `psql` for Postgres inspection when needed.
+- Use multimodal/image/document skills for visual or document-heavy tasks.
 
 ## Git Hygiene
 
-- Lint before every commit
-- Run the full test suite before pushing — **never skip failing tests** to force a green build
-- Scope each commit to its actual code changes
-- Write clean conventional commit messages (`feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, etc.) with no AI attribution
-- **Never commit secrets** — no `.env` files, API keys, or credentials in the repository
+- Lint before commit.
+- Run required tests before push.
+- Keep commits focused.
+- Use conventional commits.
+- Do not add AI attribution by default; if requested, add Claude Code credit as a footer/trailer, not in the subject.
+- Never commit secrets, real `.env` files, credentials, or API keys.
