# AGENTS.md

The canonical guidance for AI coding agents in this repository lives in **[CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md)**
(same folder). Read that first, then the `CLAUDE.md` inside whichever project you are editing:

- Frontend → [client/CLAUDE.md](client/CLAUDE.md)
- Backend → [server/CLAUDE.md](server/CLAUDE.md)

Those hold the **hard rules**. For current-state product truth — what to test, what's blocking launch,
what's missing — start at **[mvp/README.md](mvp/README.md)**. The engineering reasoning behind the hard
rules, and the full business-requirement docs, were archived on 2026-08-02 into
**[archive/docs/rules/](archive/docs/rules/index.md)** and **[archive/product/](archive/product/index.md)**
respectively — reference material, not actively maintained.

`CLAUDE.md` is the single source of truth at every level of this repo; these `AGENTS.md` files are
just pointers so the convention is discoverable under either name.
