Restore CLAUDE.md and Re-Vendor Drifted Skill Files

[ptr727]

Summary

Fixes three findings from a fresh hub audit re-run of issue #14:

• CLAUDE.md restored. The hub manifest requires it fleet-wide (verbatim, appliesTo: "*", not marked for retirement), but it had been deleted from this repo instead of replaced with the hub's minimal @AGENTS.md-import shim, leaving Claude Code sessions here without an entry point into AGENTS.md.
• Three .github/skills/ files re-vendored (local-strict-review, resync-a-repo, standup-a-repo): each had drifted from the hub canonical, still describing this repo's own pre-deletion CLAUDE.md handling.
• GOVERNANCE.md and AUDIT.md each named the template repo by link outside a verbatim section, which a carried file must not do; both now state the behavior rather than the destination. GOVERNANCE.md's "Repository Layout" map also picked up the missing CLAUDE.md bullet.

Validation

• markdownlint-cli2, editorconfig-checker, and the hub's scripts/prose_lint.py --diff origin/develop: all clean on every changed file.
• All hub-sourced content verified byte-identical against a local ptr727/ProjectTemplate checkout.
• local-strict-review run against the full branch diff (Opus tier): found and fixed the two follow-on gaps above (missing Repository Layout bullet, the same AUDIT.md coordination reference).
• dotnet husky run pre-commit hooks passed.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds CLAUDE.md as an AGENTS.md import entry point and updates repository procedures and documentation to carry it consistently. It also adjusts delegated review guidance and removes a hardcoded hub repository path.

Changes

Instruction integration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Claude Code entry point CLAUDE.md, GOVERNANCE.md	CLAUDE.md imports AGENTS.md as the authoritative rule source. Repository layout documentation records this relationship.
Instruction file procedures .github/skills/standup-a-repo/SKILL.md, .github/skills/resync-a-repo/SKILL.md	Standup and resync procedures carry CLAUDE.md with AGENTS.md. Resync applies guard probing only to the designated guarded files.
Review and audit alignment .github/skills/local-strict-review/SKILL.md, AUDIT.md	Delegated review guidance quotes the unresolved-rule closing line. Audit documentation no longer names a specific hub repository path.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 71a51

The PR restores shared repository guidance and re-vendors several skill files, but two current instructions remain unsafe: one leaves delegated reviews without a required rule, and another could cause repository-specific guidance to be overwritten during resynchronization. These are concrete correctness risks, so the PR is not merge-ready until corrected.

High-Level Assessment

The canonical minimal CLAUDE.md import shim plus byte-identical skill re-vendoring is the appropriate approach. Duplicating AGENTS.md rules in CLAUDE.md would create another drift surface, while leaving the file absent would keep Claude Code sessions unconfigured.

Reference the authoritative unresolved-rule delegation line

• Replaces a locally restated fallback rule with a placeholder requiring the exact AGENTS.md closing line in delegated review prompts. This keeps the vendored review skill aligned with the fleet canonical and avoids duplicated governance wording.

Restore CLAUDE.md during fleet resynchronization

Restore the Claude Code instruction bootstrap

• Adds the fleet-canonical CLAUDE.md shim that imports AGENTS.md into Claude Code sessions. It explicitly carries no independent rules, preventing instruction duplication and drift.

🟡 Changes recommended

.github/skills/local-strict-review/SKILL.md still contains a literal placeholder line instead of the required verbatim quote from AGENTS.md, leaving the skill instructions incomplete.

Pull request overview

This PR restores the fleet-required CLAUDE.md entry point and re-vendors several drifted, hub-sourced skill docs, while also removing a hub repository link from carried prose outside verbatim sections to comply with the carried-content constraints.

Changes:

• Restore CLAUDE.md as the minimal @AGENTS.md import shim so Claude Code sessions pick up repo rules.
• Update carried docs (GOVERNANCE.md, AUDIT.md) to describe hub-hosted ground truth without linking to the hub repo outside verbatim sections.
• Re-vendor drifted .github/skills/*/SKILL.md content to reflect the restored CLAUDE.md baseline (with one remaining placeholder to fix).

File summaries

File	Description
GOVERNANCE.md	Adds CLAUDE.md to the repository layout map and removes an out-of-band hub link reference.
CLAUDE.md	Restores the Claude Code entry point via @AGENTS.md.
AUDIT.md	Removes the hub repo link from the non-verbatim introduction while keeping the hub-hosted-ground-truth semantics.
.github/skills/standup-a-repo/SKILL.md	Updates the standup instructions to include CLAUDE.md as a required carried baseline file.
.github/skills/resync-a-repo/SKILL.md	Updates resync ordering and rationale to include CLAUDE.md and clarify guard scope.
.github/skills/local-strict-review/SKILL.md	Updates the delegation prompt template, but currently contains a placeholder where a verbatim quote is required.

- Line 51: Replace the placeholder at the unresolved-rule closing line in
local-strict-review with the exact closing line from AGENTS.md’s “Context and
Delegation Discipline” section, preserving the surrounding delegation
instructions.
In @.github/skills/resync-a-repo/SKILL.md:
- Around line 56-58: Update the resync procedure’s step 3 wording so verbatim
re-vending applies only to CLAUDE.md and the verbatim sections of AGENTS.md and
GOVERNANCE.md; explicitly direct CODESTYLE.md and WORKFLOW.md through
intent-fidelity reconciliation instead of overwriting them with hub content.
