CLAUDE.md now carries only what must be known *before* opening a file:
hard rules, gotchas, and an entry-point table. Everything descriptive
moved to the doc that lives next to the code.
Moved out:
- stack versions, plugin roles, asset pipeline, nav shape, user/ repo
tracking rules → docs/reference/architecture.md
- Playwright layout, config facts, auth-setup project, test account
→ docs/reference/testing.md (new)
- folder map, full make command list (build/test/demo/worktree targets
that only existed in CLAUDE.md) → README.md
- dev/prod Twig settings table → already in docs/guides/deploy-cycle.md
Fixed while verifying, all of them descriptions that had drifted:
- demo fixtures were listed as italy-2026-demo + no-photos-demo; the
actual folders are italy-2025 + italy-2026-demo
- the map engine was cited at js/src/maplibre-utils.js; it is
js/maplibre-utils.js, a hand-authored file beside the bundles
- the build-output list omitted fonts/ and the generated
templates/partials/weather-icons.html.twig, and did not flag that
js/maplibre-utils.js and js/nav.js are sources living in js/
- README called user/ a "standalone git repo" (it is a submodule)
- docs/README.md linked to a non-existent working/production-todo.md
- git-sync-notes.md pointed at "CLAUDE.md §1", a section number that
no longer exists
Net: ~17.1k → ~8.5k chars of always-loaded context.
