Create Context

Create Context

Bootstrap project context from .in/ folder → .ctx/ snapshot + baseline + RISEN INPUT table.

⚠️ AskUserQuestion Guard

CRITICAL: After EVERY AskUserQuestion call, check if answers are empty/blank. Known Claude Code bug: outside Plan Mode, AskUserQuestion silently returns empty answers without showing UI.

If answers are empty: DO NOT proceed with assumptions. Instead:

1. Output: "⚠️ Questions didn't display (known Claude Code bug outside Plan Mode)."
2. Present the options as a numbered text list and ask user to reply with their choice number.
3. WAIT for user reply before continuing.

Folder Architecture

• .in/: Immutable bootstrap (user dumps raw docs, never modified by commands)
• .ctx/: Actionable snapshot (generated: manifest + summaries + copied files)

Steps

1. Prerequisites

[ -d .in/ ] || error "No .in/ folder found. Create it and add source files first."
[ -d .ctx/ ] && [ "$1" != "--force" ] && error ".ctx/ exists. Use --force to recreate."

Skip security-sensitive files: .env*, *credentials*, *secrets*, *token*, *.key, *.pem, *.crt

2. Scan & Prioritize

1. Glob: .in/**/*.{md,txt,csv,yaml,json}
2. AskUserQuestion per file: HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW + brief description

3. Create .ctx/ and Generate Manifest

Write .ctx/manifest.yaml — see reference.md for schema.

4. Context Sizing & Copy

Token estimation: tokens ≈ words / 0.75 (via wc -w)

Copy HIGH/MEDIUM files to .ctx/, preserving subdirectory structure.

5. Summarize (if needed)

• Direct: Read + generate ~500 token summary → .ctx/{nn}-{basename}-summary-llm.md
• Sub-agent: Task(summarize-for-context) for files >25K tokens

6. Write Baseline

Create CONTEXT-baseline-llm.md with inline content + summary refs + LOW references. Target: ≤2000 tokens.

7. Output

Report: file counts, RISEN INPUT table, suggest /save-context baseline.

See reference.md for manifest schema, baseline template, and validation rules.
