# Session Log — 2026-03-13
## Summary
Cleaned up the root CLAUDE.md (removed duplicated Ansible/Helm sections, consolidated validation guidance, fixed best-practices references) and built a `context-load` / `start-claude` script pair for automated session context gathering. Introduced the CONTEXT.md pattern for future independent agent work.
## Decisions
- Decision: Remove Ansible and Helm sections from root CLAUDE.md — Rationale: already covered with more detail in `best-practices/ansible.md` and `best-practices/helm.md`; technology-specific practices belong in best-practices, not the root guidelines
- Decision: Fold "Validate Before Deploying" into Process Principles — Rationale: was duplicated content; the examples fit naturally in the existing bullet point
- Decision: context-load walks upward from cwd collecting CLAUDE.md, CONTEXT.md, MEMORY.md, BESTPRACTICES.md — Rationale: gives hierarchical context inheritance; highest ancestor provides global guidelines, project dir provides specifics
- Decision: Tree depth 3 from every CLAUDE.md location — Rationale: deep enough to show project structure without overwhelming output
- Decision: Dedup loaded files via `readlink -f` — Rationale: root CLAUDE.md is a symlink to claude-foundations; without dedup it would load twice
- Decision: CONTEXT.md follows MEMORY.md pattern (thin index + `context/` folder) — Rationale: consistency; CONTEXT.md focuses on active work for agent orientation, MEMORY.md on accumulated learnings
## Key Context
- `~/dev/claude/CLAUDE.md` is a symlink to `~/dev/claude/projects/claude-foundations/CLAUDE.md` — this is intentional, claude-foundations is the canonical source
- `context-load` output is passed via `--append-system-prompt` by the `start-claude` wrapper
- Both scripts symlinked into `~/sbin/`
- CONTEXT.md is intended for future Docker-based independent agent operation — each agent gets full context load, starting prompt points to relevant CONTEXT.md entry
- git-status-report output is ANSI-stripped before inclusion in context
- Also committed the previously uncommitted linting system (18 files) from the earlier session
## Process Notes
- Session was efficient — cleanups and script creation done in parallel with minimal iteration
- The context-load smoke tests from different directories caught the symlink dedup working correctly
- Previous session's linting work was uncommitted — worth running `git-status-report` at session start to catch this pattern
