Scaffold New Project

Every project your JARVIS touches gets a CLAUDE.md — that's what makes session #50 as sharp as session #1.

Steps

1. Create and init

mkdir -p ~/project-name && cd ~/project-name
git init

2. Write the project's CLAUDE.md

# project-name

One line: what this is and who it's for.

## Stack
e.g. Rust/Axum + React/Vite/Tailwind + PostgreSQL

## Structure
- `backend/` — API (routes/, services/, models/)
- `web/` — frontend
- `db/migrations/` — numbered SQL migrations

## Production
- Server: <name from ~/.jarvis/servers.md>
- URL: https://...
- Deploy: see `deploy` skill

## Known Bugs
(keep this honest — future sessions read it)

## Log
- YYYY-MM-DD — project created

3. Register in the registry

Append a row to ~/.jarvis/projects.md:

| project-name | `~/project-name` | `~/project-name/CLAUDE.md` | server | port |

This registry is how one JARVIS juggles many projects without mixing them up: one session = one project, context loaded on demand.

4. Scaffold the stack

Use whatever the project needs — cargo init, npm create vite@latest, docker compose config. Add a .gitignore before the first commit (.env, node_modules/, target/, session files).

5. First commit

git add -A && git commit -m "feat: initial project scaffold"

Checklist

• CLAUDE.md in project root
• Row in ~/.jarvis/projects.md
• .gitignore covers secrets before anything is committed
• Stack scaffolded and building
