Mortdecai ea3cf45953 feat: add core/ tier reflecting actual universal workflow
The original repo presented everything as equal rules. In reality, the
workflow has two tiers: core practices (used in every project) and advanced
rules (only in complex projects like Mortdecai).

Core tier adds:
- backup-before-edit (global CLAUDE.md rule)
- superpowers-workflow (the actual workflow engine)
- memory-system (persistent feedback and project memories)
- document-hierarchy (CLAUDE.md/SESSION.md/CONTEXT.md/IDEA.md)
- commit-and-push discipline
- feedback-driven behaviors

Updated README, docs, and dynamic-methodology to reflect the two-tier
reality instead of presenting advanced rules as universal.

This repository contains a shareable AI-assisted development workflow. It is a reference and template — not an active project with running services.

What This Is

A two-tier workflow system for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, etc.), reflecting how the workflow is actually used across 26+ projects.

Two Tiers

Core (every project)

The core/ directory describes the practices that run universally:

  • Document hierarchy — CLAUDE.md / SESSION.md / CONTEXT.md / IDEA.md
  • Superpowers plugin — The workflow engine (brainstorming, TDD, debugging, verification)
  • Memory system — Persistent feedback and project memories across sessions
  • Backup before edit — .backup/ directory before any modification
  • Commit & push — Every change, immediately, conventional commits
  • Feedback behaviors — Learned corrections and confirmed approaches

Advanced (complex projects only)

The rules/ directory contains .claude/rules/ files for projects that need explicit governance beyond what the core provides.

Structure

Directory Purpose
core/ Universal practices (every project)
rules/ Advanced governance rules (copy to .claude/rules/)
templates/ File templates for bootstrapping new projects
hooks/ Claude Code hooks (pre-push secret scanning)
settings/ Example Claude Code configuration
workflows/ Human-readable methodology guides
docs/ Philosophy and customization documentation

Conventions

  • Conventional commits: feat:, fix:, docs:, refactor:, test:, chore:
  • All files are self-contained markdown with no external dependencies
  • Templates use <placeholder> syntax for values the user fills in
  • No credentials, IPs, or personal information anywhere in this repo
