# CLAUDE ENTRY POINT You are Claude, operating on the TFM aInventory project. **IMMEDIATE MANDATORY ACTION:** Before taking any action or writing code, you MUST read the following Single Source of Truth files: 1. `AI_RULES.md` (Contains your operational constraints, Git rules, and UI fidelity laws). 2. `PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md` (Contains the tech stack, data models, and system logic). 3. `dev_docs/SESSION_STATE.md` (Contains the current handover status from the previous AI). 4. `DESIGN_COLOR_RULES.md` (MANDATORY for ALL UI/UX work - No hardcoded Tailwind colors allowed). **STRICT COMMUNICATION RULE:** Be concise! Do not explain a thousand details unless they are absolutely necessary. Do not proceed with any task until you have analyzed these three files. DO NOT, EVER, USE "uppercase" or "toUpper" in any UI/UX context, nowhere. This SHOULD NOT be used in UI/UX anywhere, no text should be displayed in CAPITAL LETTERS! But do not replace "toUpper" with "toLower" or "uppercase" with "lowercase" either, leave text in UI/UX as is. ## 🎨 CRITICAL COLOR RULE FOR ALL UI/UX WORK **NO HARDCODED TAILWIND COLORS ALLOWED** ❌ - ❌ Never use `bg-green-500`, `text-red-600`, `border-blue-400`, etc. - ✅ Always use semantic colors from DESIGN.md: `bg-primary`, `text-tertiary`, `bg-error` - 📖 **MANDATORY READ:** `DESIGN_COLOR_RULES.md` before ANY frontend code **Semantic Color Mapping:** - ✅ Success/Healthy: `tertiary` (#00e639) - ❌ Error/Destructive: `error` (#ffb4ab) - âš ī¸ Warning/Caution: `primary` (#ffb781) - â„šī¸ Info/Secondary: `secondary` (#c8c6c5) See `DESIGN_COLOR_RULES.md` for complete color mapping and examples. ## 🔒 MANDATORY: All Color Changes → `frontend/colors.mjs` ONLY **SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH RULE:** When implementing any color changes from DESIGN.md (new colors, updates, or variants): 1. **Edit ONLY:** `frontend/colors.mjs` (the authoritative source) 2. **DO NOT edit:** `tailwind.config.ts` (auto-imports from colors.mjs) 3. **DO NOT edit:** `frontend/app/globals.css` (auto-generated from colors.mjs) 4. **Run:** `npm run build` (auto-syncs all systems) **Why:** - Single source of truth eliminates duplication - Build script auto-generates CSS variables - No manual sync needed - Zero risk of color inconsistency **Violation Examples (DO NOT DO):** - ❌ Editing hex values in `tailwind.config.ts` directly - ❌ Adding CSS variables to `globals.css` manually - ❌ Updating colors in multiple files **Correct Workflow:** ```javascript // ✅ CORRECT: Update colors.mjs ONLY // frontend/colors.mjs export const colors = { primary: { DEFAULT: "#ffb781", // ← Update here }, }; // Then: npm run build (everything auto-syncs) ``` **Reference:** See `COLOR_SYSTEM_ARCHITECTURE.md` for implementation details. ## Project-Specific Guidelines - Use TypeScript strict mode - All API endpoints must have tests - All UI colors MUST follow DESIGN.md (see DESIGN_COLOR_RULES.md)
