Global rules

The author’s ~/.claude rule files, sanitised. global-CLAUDE.md is the file that goes at ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md (renamed here so it does not load as this repo’s project rules). It @-imports the other five:

File Covers
core-rules.md Session hygiene, model routing for subagents, long-running work, definition of done
workflow-rules.md Non-interactive Bash, PR merge authority, branch and worktree safety, first-pass gates, Codex routing
factual-guardrails.md Say “I don’t know” rather than guess; cite or omit
design-rules.md Where UI work takes its design system from, and how UI fixes get verified
RTK.md The four lines RTK needs the model to know

Budget: under 150 lines across all six, blank lines excluded. A rule ignored for three sessions becomes a hook or gets deleted. Many lines name skills or hooks from this repo; drop the ones you do not install.
