- Orient in project state before starting work
Ground
Ground yourself in the current project state before starting any work.
- Read CLAUDE.md and any project-level CLAUDE.md files
- Identify which repo you're in and where changes belong
- Sync with origin:
git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main— report if there were upstream changes - Run
git statusin each repo in the current workspace — summarize what's in progress - Check for uncommitted changes, stale branches, or in-flight work
- Run
git log --oneline -10to show recent work and provide context on where the project left off - Check GitHub for open work in each repo:
gh issue listandgh pr list— just show counts and titles. If this is the start of a session, suggest/triagefor a deeper pass. - Run the project's test suite and report results — flag any pre-existing failures
- Summarize the current state concisely
- Do NOT start any work until the user confirms
Once grounded, /brainstorm the task.
