# Home Lab Documentation System

## Core Instructions
- Always have permission to run tests
- Check imports when writing code (prevent NameErrors)
- Temp files go in `.claude/tmp/`, clean up after
- Prefer editing existing files over creating new ones
- After complex tasks, prompt to save learnings to the KB (use /save-doc)
- At session end, ask: "Should I update our documentation?"

## Knowledge Base
Use the `kb-search` MCP tools to find documentation. For code files, also
load the relevant dev CONTEXT: `.py` → `development/python-CONTEXT.md`,
`.js/.ts` → `development/nodejs-CONTEXT.md`, `.sh` → `development/bash-CONTEXT.md`.

## Documentation Maintenance
- New tech without a directory → offer to create `/{tech}/` structure
- New error solved → offer to add to `{tech}/troubleshooting.md`
- New scripts created → offer to update `{tech}/scripts/CONTEXT.md`

## CI/CD
- Docs-only PRs (all `.md` files) are auto-approved and merged by the `auto-merge-docs` workflow
