📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLAUDE.md file was streamlined by removing verbose sections including detailed project overview, contribution workflow templates, and PR process checklists. Condensed sections for Commands, PRs, Release-please, and Registry were retained or added.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Documentation consolidation
CLAUDE.md
Removed detailed "Project Overview" (tooling, file structure, workflows, hooks, registry details) and extensive contribution templates (PR checklist, release steps, version rules, merge strategy). Added condensed "Commands", "PRs" (with branch/merge rules and DCO requirements), "Release-please", and "Registry" sections. Net change: -120 lines.

15-21: Consider adding workflow enforcement for DCO and trailer rules.

The PR requirements are clearly documented and align with project learnings. However, the current GitHub workflow (.github/workflows/welcome.yml) only enforces PR title format but doesn't validate DCO sign-offs or prevent Co-Authored-By/AI attribution trailers.

Consider adding workflow checks to automatically enforce these requirements and prevent non-compliant commits from being merged.

Would you like me to generate a workflow enhancement or open an issue to track this improvement?
