Init

/afc:init — Project Initial Setup

Creates project-local configuration files (.claude/afc.config.md, .claude/rules/afc-project.md, .claude/afc/project-profile.md). Project-local only — never touches ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. For global routing setup use /afc:setup.

Project State (auto-loaded)

!ls .claude/afc.config.md .claude/rules/afc-project.md .claude/selfish.config.md .claude/.selfish-* 2>/dev/null | head -20 || echo "[no existing afc files]"

Arguments

• $ARGUMENTS — (optional) additional context or hints for project analysis

Execution Steps

1. Legacy Migration (v1.x → v2.x)

Detect and migrate selfish-pipeline artifacts in one pass:

• .claude/selfish.config.md exists, afc.config.md does not → rename to afc.config.md
• .claude/.selfish-* files found → rename each to .afc-{x}
• .claude/selfish/ exists, .claude/afc/ does not → rename to .claude/afc/
• git tag -l 'selfish/*' → rename known patterns to afc/ equivalent, delete the rest

Print a single migration summary line. If nothing to migrate, skip silently.

2. Check for Existing Config

If .claude/afc.config.md already exists and this is NOT a migration:

• Ask user: "Config file already exists. Overwrite?"
• If declined: abort

3. Analyze Project Structure

Use $ARGUMENTS as additional context. Detection heuristics are in reference.md — consult it for package manager, framework, architecture, and tool detection tables.

1. Read package.json → extract CI scripts, detect package manager from lockfile
2. Detect framework from package.json deps
3. Detect architecture from directory structure + tsconfig.json paths
4. Detect state/styling/testing/linter/DB tools
5. Read 2–3 code samples to verify naming patterns

Detection is best-effort. Present results to user for confirmation before writing files.

4. Generate Config File

Write .claude/afc.config.md based on template at ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../templates/afc.config.template.md:

1. CI Commands — YAML block with ci, gate, test keys (scripts parse this; format is fixed)
2. Architecture — detected pattern, layers, import rules, path aliases (free-form prose)
3. Code Style — language, strictness, naming, lint rules (free-form prose)
4. Project Context — framework, state, styling, testing, DB, risks (free-form prose)

No YAML blocks except CI Commands. Use TODO: Adjust for your project for unresolved items.

4.5. Generate Project Rules File

Write .claude/rules/afc-project.md (auto-loaded by Claude Code for all sub-agents):

1. Create .claude/rules/ if not present
2. If file exists with <!-- afc:auto-generated marker → overwrite silently
3. If file exists without marker → ask user before overwriting
4. Use template ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../templates/afc-project.template.md
5. First line: <!-- afc:auto-generated — do not edit manually; regenerate with /afc:init -->
6. Max 30 lines (excluding marker) — bullets only, no explanations

4.6. Generate Project Profile

Write .claude/afc/project-profile.md for expert consultation agents:

1. Create .claude/afc/ if not present
2. If file already exists → skip (do not overwrite)
3. Fill Stack/Architecture/Domain from Step 3 analysis; leave Team/Scale/Constraints as placeholders
4. Use template ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../templates/project-profile.template.md

4.7. Update CLAUDE.md with Compact Instructions

Append a # Compact instructions section to the project's CLAUDE.md (create if not present):

1. Check if CLAUDE.md already contains # Compact instructions → if yes, skip silently
2. Append the following block to CLAUDE.md:

# Compact instructions
When compacting, always preserve:
- Active pipeline feature name and current phase
- File Change Map from plan.md (file paths + task assignments)
- All unresolved ESCALATE items with their options
- context.md contents (spec summary + plan decisions + advisor results)
- Changed files list and CI/test pass/fail status
- Current task progress (completed/total)

This ensures auto-compact retains critical pipeline state.

4.8. Recommend Context Window Configuration

If the project CLAUDE.md does not already contain auto-compact configuration guidance, append:

# Context window configuration (recommended)
# Add to .claude/settings.json or .claude/settings.local.json:
# { "env": { "CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW": "500000" } }
# This treats the window as 500k for compaction — the remaining 500k is reserve headroom.
# Combined with the compact instructions above, this gives you full control over when compaction happens.

Note: This is informational only. Do NOT modify settings.json — just add as a comment in CLAUDE.md for user awareness.

5. Final Output

all-for-claudecode project init complete
├─ Config: .claude/afc.config.md
├─ Rules: .claude/rules/afc-project.md (auto-loaded)
├─ Profile: .claude/afc/project-profile.md
├─ Compact instructions: CLAUDE.md updated
├─ Framework: {detected framework}
├─ Architecture: {detected style}
├─ Package Manager: {detected manager}
├─ Auto-inferred: {inferred item count}
├─ TODO: {items requiring manual review}
└─ Next step: /afc:setup (global routing) or /afc:auto (start building)

Notes

• Idempotent: existing auto-generated rules are silently regenerated; config prompts for confirmation.
• Inference limits: Auto-detection is best-effort — review and adjust after generation.
