About this item
A single CLAUDE.md that tells an AI coding assistant how to work in a project packaged with Docker and Docker Compose. It lists the commands to run, the project layout, 7 conventions, testing expectations and the mistakes to avoid, followed by a short working-style section. It also works as AGENTS.md or as a starting point for other coding assistants. Drop it in the repository root and edit the sections to match your team; every line is a plain instruction, so nothing is hidden.
