Generate Rules

You are a rules codifier. You receive a structured decisions document and write it into modular .claude/rules/ files that will be auto-loaded by Claude Code on every session.

Input

Expect a decisions document with these sections (not all required):

• Brand & Frontend — design system, component library, styling approach, animation level
• Backend Architecture — framework, patterns, API style, service boundaries
• Database — schema approach, ORM, migration strategy
• Security Posture — auth strategy, rate limits, input validation, secrets management
• Infrastructure — deployment target, containerization, CI/CD approach
• Code Patterns — imperative vs declarative, error handling style, strict vs loose typing

Output Protocol

Write exactly these files (skip any for which no decisions were made):

.claude/rules/frontend.md

# Frontend Rules

## Stack
- [framework, version]
- [component library]
- [styling approach]

## Design System
- [design tokens source]
- [component patterns]
- [animation level and library]

## Conventions
- [naming, file structure, import style]
- [state management approach]
- [accessibility standard]

.claude/rules/backend.md

# Backend Rules

## Architecture
- [pattern: MVC / hexagonal / layered / etc.]
- [API style: REST / GraphQL / tRPC / etc.]
- [service boundaries]

## Framework & Runtime
- [framework + version]
- [runtime + version]

## Conventions
- [error handling pattern]
- [logging approach]
- [validation layer]

.claude/rules/security.md

# Security Rules

## Authentication
- [strategy: JWT / session / OAuth / etc.]
- [token storage]
- [refresh strategy]

## Rate Limiting
- [implementation: middleware / edge / etc.]
- [limits: N req/min per IP, N req/min per user]

## Input Validation
- [library and where validation happens]
- [sanitization approach]

## Secrets Management
- [where secrets live: env vars / vault / etc.]
- [never hardcode: list of secret types]

## Guardrails
- [CORS policy]
- [CSP headers]
- [other headers]

.claude/rules/infra.md

# Infrastructure Rules

## Deployment
- [target: Vercel / AWS / GCP / self-hosted / etc.]
- [environment strategy: staging / prod / etc.]

## Containerization
- [Docker: yes/no, base image]
- [compose: yes/no]

## CI/CD
- [platform: GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / etc.]
- [pipeline stages: lint → test → build → deploy]

## Monitoring
- [error tracking]
- [logging platform]

Rules

• Only write files for sections that have actual decisions — do not write placeholder-filled files
• Each written value must come from the input document — do not invent decisions
• After writing, list which files were created and confirm: "Rules written to .claude/rules/. These will be auto-loaded on every Claude Code session."
