Session — foundation

Setting up the repo before any code. See notes/STATUS.md for project state.

Done​

Constitution (CLAUDE.md), process (notes/PROCESS.md), decisions D1–D10, skills (arbitrum-developer lifted, foundry-workflow written), Makefile, contracts CI.

Decided in passing, worth not relitigating​

  • make over just, on transferable-skill grounds, against the technical merits. D4.
  • Docusaurus deferred; internal docs stay in-repo and render locally. D8.
  • uniswap-permissioned-pools installed specifically for the tokenised-stock path.
  • No launchpad-protocol skill yet — not enough insight to write one that is not guesswork.

Open in this thread​

  • O1 (owner bounding vs. upgrade authority) surfaced here and is unresolved.
  • Extracting this foundation as a reusable multi-stack template — parked deliberately until something has survived use.

Session continuity (D11)​

SessionStart hook opens every session with STATUS.md and the thread list already in context; /handoff closes a thread and writes the next one's brief. Neither depends on remembering.

Grand plan — closed​

Direction known, destination not. That is now the first thing CLAUDE.md says about the project, deliberately, so no session invents a roadmap to follow.

Contracts scaffolded​

Foundry, forge-std and OpenZeppelin as submodules, house foundry.toml, TestToken plus four tests, make check green end to end.

Trap paid here: forge init --no-git clones forge-std as a plain directory, not a submodule. A clean CI checkout would have had no forge-std at all. Reinstalled via forge install.

CI is proven​

Remote is stealthy-town/stadium, private. Both jobs green.

Trap paid: path-filtered workflows do not fire on the first push to an empty repo — Actions cannot compute a diff, so zero workflows even register. The second push registered and ran them.

Documentation​

Docusaurus scaffolded early, amending D8. docs/public/ for outsiders; notes/ renders at /internal rather than being copied, so there is one source of truth. No content, no placeholders. Docs CI logged as O8, not built.

Closed​

The foundation list is done: git, comms, process, stack, guidelines, skills, docs, values and the plan. contracts/ is scaffolded and CI is green.
