PROJECT.md evolves throughout project lifecycle:
- Requirements have states: Validated, Active, Out of Scope
- Decisions track outcomes: Good, Revisit, Pending
- Phase transitions update requirements and log decisions
- Milestone completions trigger full PROJECT.md review
STATE.md now references PROJECT.md (not a copy):
- Claude reads PROJECT.md directly for full context
- Smaller STATE.md footprint (~100 lines)
- Project Reference section with core value and focus
Brownfield projects infer Validated requirements from existing code.

The limit was causing loss of useful context, especially code examples
in TESTING.md and CONVENTIONS.md. Document quality > arbitrary brevity.

Claude has no context before the user describes their idea.
Can't generate useful options from nothing.
Flow: freeform "what do you want to build?" → THEN AskUserQuestion
for intelligent follow-ups based on what they said.

Shell commands in <context> sections using !` backticks trigger
permission checks for users not in dangerously-skip-permissions mode.
Replaced with @-file references where needed; process logic handles
missing files via allowed tools (Read, Glob, Grep).
Affected commands: new-project, progress, create-roadmap,
research-project, pause-work, consider-issues

End-of-command workflows now show explicit instructions to run /clear
and paste the next command, rather than offering numbered options that
invoke SlashCommand directly. This prevents users from accidentally
exhausting context by continuing work in the same session.
- Updated 16 files (commands and workflows)
- YOLO mode auto-continues preserved (user explicitly chose automation)
- In-workflow decisions like consider-issues preserved

- Remove silent="true" which caused step to be skipped
- Make setup step explicit with MANDATORY instruction
- Check for both .git directory AND .git file (worktrees/submodules)
- Add explicit "You MUST run using Bash tool" instruction
Prevents commits going to parent repo when initializing
projects in subdirectories.

Remove fixed 3-6 phase constraint and time-based sizing (1-3 days).
Phase count now emerges from deliverable coherence—simple projects
get fewer phases, complex projects get more.

Updated: questioning.md, new-project.md, discuss-phase.md,
discuss-milestone.md, and their workflow files.
