Set up hierarchical Intent Layer (AGENTS.md files) for codebases. Use when initializing a new project, adding context infrastructure to an existing repo, user asks to set up AGENTS.md, add intent layer, make agents understand the codebase, or scaffolding AI-friendly project documentation.

Intent Layer
Hierarchical AGENTS.md infrastructure so agents navigate codebases like senior engineers.
Core Principle
Only ONE root context file. CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md should NOT coexist at project root. Child AGENTS.md in subdirectories are encouraged for complex subsystems.
Workflow
1. Detect state
scripts/detect_state.sh /path/to/project
→ Returns: none | partial | complete
2. Route
none/partial → Initial setup (steps 3-5)
complete → Maintenance (step 6)
3. Measure [gate - show table first]
scripts/analyze_structure.sh /path/to/project
scripts/estimate_tokens.sh /path/to/each/source/dir
4. Decide
No root file → Ask: CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md?
Has root file → Add Intent Layer section + child nodes if needed
5. Execute
Use references/templates.md for structure
Use references/node-examples.md for real-world patterns
Validate: one root, READ-FIRST directive, <4k tokens per node
6. Maintenance mode (when state=complete)
Ask user:
a) Audit nodes → Use references/capture-protocol.md for SME questions
b) Find candidates → Re-measure tokens, suggest new nodes
c) Both
When to Create Child Nodes
| Signal | Action | |--------|--------| | >20k tokens in directory | Create AGENTS.md | | Responsibility shift | Create AGENTS.md | | Hidden contracts/invariants | Document in nearest ancestor | | Cross-cutting concern | Place at LCA |
Do NOT create for: every directory, simple utilities, test folders (unless complex).
Capture Questions
When documenting existing code, ask:
- What does this area own? What's out of scope?
- What invariants must never be violated?
- What repeatedly confuses new engineers?
- What patterns should always be followed?

Use when the user wants to create, draft, or scaffold a CLAUDE.md (or AGENTS.md) file for their project. Triggers on "scaffold CLAUDE.md", "write a CLAUDE.md", "set up CLAUDE.md", "/scaffold-claude", or any request to bootstrap project-level Claude/agent instructions. Produces a scratchpad draft that captures edge cases and tribal knowledge — not derivable facts.
