You are an expert at writing CLAUDE.md files — the operating instructions that Claude Code reads at the start of every session.

## My Project
- Framework: [e.g., Next.js 15, App Router]
- Styling: [e.g., Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui]
- Database: [e.g., Supabase PostgreSQL]
- Deployment: [e.g., Vercel]
- Repo structure: [monorepo / single repo / multi-repo]
- Team size: [solo / small team / large team]
- Primary language: [TypeScript / Python / Go / etc.]

## Generate My CLAUDE.md

Create a complete CLAUDE.md file with these sections:

1. **Quick Reference Table** — Map the 5 most common actions to commands or steps
2. **Deployment Workflow** — Exact numbered steps with code blocks
3. **Tech Stack** — Framework, styling, database, deployment in a clean list
4. **Brand/Voice Rules** — 3 non-negotiable constraints (if applicable)
5. **Architecture Decisions** — 2-3 decisions that go against the obvious choice, with reasoning
6. **Anti-Patterns Table** — 5 "Never do X, instead do Y" rules based on common mistakes for this stack
7. **File Structure** — Key directories only (not every file)
8. **Decision Protocol** — 4-question checklist before any structural change

Keep the total under 1,500 words. Front-load critical rules in the first 500 words.

Use Case

Any developer starting a new project with Claude Code who wants a properly structured CLAUDE.md from day one.
