refactor(claude): split 700-line CLAUDE.md into path-scoped .claude/rules/ (#188)
Old CLAUDE.md was 700 lines — exceeded Anthropic 200-line recommendation,
adherence degraded under context pressure.
Refactor per research findings:
- CLAUDE.md 700 -> 97 lines (essential only, pointers to rules)
- .claude/rules/{backend,frontend,sql,git-pr,deploy}.md (NEW, path-scoped)
- ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md (NEW, 21 lines) — personal cross-project prefs
- memory/ — deleted 12 feedback files promoted to proper layer (CLAUDE.md
rules table, .claude/rules/, ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md). 7 remaining = workflow
details.
- .gitignore: !.claude/agents/, !.claude/rules/ exceptions
Total auto-loaded per session: 97 (CLAUDE.md) + 21 (~/.claude) = 118 lines
vs prior 700. Rules in .claude/rules/ load only when matching paths touched.
Resolves conflict no_self_review vs pre_push_review: now single rule in
git-pr.md Review workflow section (pre-push = local lint; post-push =
external Claude window posting as lekss361).
Code-reviewer feedback applied:
- paths: frontmatter added to git-pr.md
- Auto-merge scope blocked-list now includes .claude/rules/*.md changes
to prevent self-extending rules without human approval.
