Project Onboarding

Orient in the current project by gathering context from multiple sources: project instructions, version control state, issue tracker, and build system. Produce a concise status briefing and suggest what to tackle next.

Workflow

Execute all steps below. Run independent steps in parallel where possible.

Step 1: Read Project Instructions (MANDATORY)

You MUST read AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, and COPILOT.md in the project root. Skip any that don't exist, but read all that do. If a file explicitly instructs you to read another file, read that file too. If both files contain the same content (e.g., one simply redirects to the other), only read it once. When both files exist and their rules conflict, AGENTS.md takes precedence.

Extract from these files:

• Tech stack and language versions
• Project conventions and rules
• Directory structure
• What tools and validators are used

Follow the instructions and rules found in these files during this session.
