CLAUDE.md keeps the status convention as a one-line rule (it has to be
loaded to be followed). This is the same convention written out for a
human reader, with the meanings the trim dropped, plus what each
subfolder of docs/working/ is for and a grep one-liner for "what's open".
Notes the two distinctions that matter in practice: Deferred is not
Abandoned, and a trailing note after "Complete" is normal.
