Apply Rules

Applies organization-wide rules (produced by merge-rules) to the current project. Detects the project's tech stack, selects relevant rules, merges them with existing extract-rules output, cleans up promoted patterns from .local.md files, and ensures the final structure conforms to the extract-rules/merge-rules convention.

Usage

/apply-rules <source>                  # Apply from GitHub URL or local path
/apply-rules                           # Apply using config file
/apply-rules --config <path>           # Apply using specified config file
/apply-rules --dry-run                 # Show what would change without writing
/apply-rules --dry-run <source>        # Dry run with specified source

<source> points directly to the rules directory (merge-rules or extract-rules output):

• GitHub: https://github.com/org/repo/tree/main/.claude/rules
• Local: ~/org-rules/.claude/rules
