Stop being inconsistent with our own fixed project-bootstrap template. - SUMMARY.md → index.md (catalog by type, with one-line hooks) - source/*.md → concepts/*.md (with `git mv` so history is preserved) - WORKFLOW.md removed (workflow lives in wiki-maintainer, not duplicated here) - New: .wiki/CLAUDE.md (project schema, Karpathy gist URL pinned at top) - New: log.md (append-only op log; backfilled with prior decisions) - New: overview.md (single project intro page) - New: raw/README.md (immutability note; replaces .gitkeep placeholder) - Empty .gitkeep added to entities/, packages/, sources/ - Migrated pages got `type: concept` frontmatter After this, wiki-maintainer reads .wiki/CLAUDE.md → index.md as it expects, and the layout matches what newly-bootstrapped projects will look like.

Decision: active-platform skill
2026-04-28.
Problem
The user develops on multiple machines (Windows primary, Linux/macOS secondary). I was generating bash one-liners by default — wrong shell for their daily workstation. Need a way to make Windows/PowerShell the default and switch on a phrase.
Options weighed
- Project memory — wrong scope (project-only, doesn't cross repos).
- Global
~/.claude/CLAUDE.md— right scope, simple, but the user explicitly preferred a skill: "поживём со скиллом" (let's live with a skill and iterate). - New skill ← chosen.
The user's reasoning for the skill route: it's a discoverable, shareable artifact that lives next to their other 12 skills, and it can evolve with the same edit/build/install loop.
What the skill does
Switches command/example generation between Windows / Linux / macOS based on session signals. Default = Windows + PowerShell. Trigger phrases in RU + EN (e.g. "мы на винде", "we're on Linux"). The rule applies only to user-facing output — tool calls still follow the harness's Shell: line.
Full spec: skills/active-platform/SKILL.md.
Why this is a skill, not memory
- Discoverability: appears in
available_skillslist, can be re-read or audited. - Cross-repo: installed into
~/.claude/skills/, applies in every session regardless of project. - Iterable: lives in this repo's
skills/so we can edit + reinstall as we learn what triggers and exceptions actually happen in practice.
Wired into project-bootstrap
The default platform should travel with every new project we create. Updated project-bootstrap so its CLAUDE.md.template adds a fifth trigger line: we're on Windows. That line is one of active-platform's recognized switches, so any project bootstrapped from now on starts pinned to Windows / PowerShell. If the user is bootstrapping on a Linux/macOS host, the SKILL.md Step 5 note tells them to swap the line for we're on Linux / we're on macOS.
Backfilled the same line into this repo's own CLAUDE.md (which was created from the old template).
Open questions to revisit
- Are the trigger phrases comprehensive enough? Add real-world examples as they come up.
- WSL handling — currently treated as Linux. Reconsider if user has WSL-specific needs.
- macOS divergences (BSD coreutils, Homebrew) — minimal coverage now, expand if user actually uses macOS often.
