Kyle Isom b678ce572a Add design docs for Go rewrite.
ARCHITECTURE.md: tech stack (Go, YAML, cobra), repo layout, manifest
schema, content-addressable blob store, CLI commands, package structure.
PROJECT_PLAN.md: 8-step implementation sequence with parallelism notes.
PROGRESS.md: status tracker for resumable implementation.
CLAUDE.md: project guidance for Claude Code, references design docs.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Critical: Keep Project Docs Updated

Any change to the codebase MUST be reflected in these files:

  • ARCHITECTURE.md — design decisions, data model, package structure
  • PROJECT_PLAN.md — implementation steps; check off completed items
  • PROGRESS.md — current status, change log; update after completing any step

If another agent or engineer picks this up later, these files are how they resume. Keeping them accurate is not optional.

Project

sgard (Shimmering Clarity Gardener) — a dotfiles manager. Module: github.com/kisom/sgard. Author: K. Isom kyle@imap.cc.

Build

go build ./cmd/sgard

Run tests:

go test ./...

Dependencies

  • gopkg.in/yaml.v3 — manifest serialization
  • github.com/spf13/cobra — CLI framework

Package Structure

cmd/sgard/    CLI entry point (cobra commands, pure wiring)
garden/       Core business logic (Garden struct orchestrating everything)
manifest/     YAML manifest parsing (Manifest/Entry structs, Load/Save)
store/        Content-addressable blob storage (SHA-256 keyed)

Key rule: all logic lives in garden/. The cmd/ layer only parses flags and calls Garden methods. This enables the future gRPC server to reuse the same logic with zero duplication.

Legacy Files

Old C++ and proto source files may still be present. They are retained in git history for reference and should be removed as part of the Go rewrite (see PROJECT_PLAN.md Step 1).
