# project orchestrator — @import .claude/rules/ — @import .claude/reference/ — lean root. everything composes from here.

the scaffolding solo devs rebuild on every project,
packaged once. drop it into any project. no rebuild.

solo operator

Every solo dev rebuilds the same scaffolding.

A CLAUDE.md from scratch. A rules folder from scratch. A ticket system from scratch.

Six weeks in, half of what you built doesn't survive a Claude update. You start over on the next project.

The kit is the alternative. Operating patterns that hold up across model releases. Not tool tutorials.

// THE TWO MODES

Code. Content. One universal layer.

MODE 01

Code mode

Layered .claude/rules/ and .claude/reference/ structure with conditional @import composition. Turns Claude Code from smart autocomplete into a junior engineer with standing instructions. For any project where Claude is writing or modifying code.

MODE 02

Content vault mode

Editorial discipline, framing locks, and read-before-write rules. For writing-heavy projects where Claude generates long-form content and consistency matters more than fluency.

MODE 03 · SHIPS WITH V2

Pipeline mode

Lessons-format CLAUDE.md, verification protocols, and the tool fallback ladder. For workflows where Claude orchestrates multi-step processes. Ships with v2 at no additional cost to v1 buyers.

// THE UNIVERSAL LAYER

The patterns that span all modes.

These ship as a separate layer because they apply regardless of mode.

Discovery Loop Format

How Claude inventories a project before suggesting changes.

Hub Fix Prompts

Five-part structure for getting Claude to fix something specific without breaking adjacent things.

Notion MCP gotcha catalog

The failure modes already hit so you don't have to.

Operating Instructions five-tier architecture

The hierarchy that keeps long projects from collapsing into chaos.
