Start Project

Steps

1. Check for existing files (docs/overview.md, .claude/workflow.md, .claude/documentation-rules.md, .claude/CLAUDE.md). If any exist, ask whether to overwrite or skip.

2. Copy workflow templates from the plugin:

   mkdir -p .claude docs planning/active planning/history
   cp "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/workflow.md" .claude/workflow.md
   cp "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/documentation-rules.md" .claude/documentation-rules.md
   cp "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/CLAUDE.md" .claude/CLAUDE.md
   

3. Gather project information via AskUserQuestion:

   • Project name and description (1-2 sentences)
   • Core objectives (3-5 bullet points)
   • Tech stack (frameworks, libraries, tools)
   • Target users or use cases
   • Success criteria

4. Create docs/overview.md following documentation-rules.md Layer 1 format:

   # [Project Name]
   
   ## Project Objective
   [Description]
   **Target Audience:** [From user]
   **Main Use Cases:**
   - [Use case 1]
   
   ## General Architecture
   [Next.js-specific: App Router vs Pages Router, rendering strategies, data fetching]
   
   ## Key Technical Decisions
   [Based on tech stack choices]
   
   ## Project Map
   [Standard Next.js structure with explanations]
   

5. Create scaffold directories (if not already present): app/, components/, lib/, docs/, docs/routes/, docs/apis/, planning/, planning/active/, planning/history/

6. Create docs/scope-changes.md with empty template.

7. Output summary: List files/dirs created. Next step: /create-plan-overview
