# Claude Code Instructions

This file is a pointer for Claude Code. The canonical project instructions
live in [AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md) — read that file. The doctrine they reference
is in [docs/TORTOISE_DOCTRINE.md](docs/TORTOISE_DOCTRINE.md).

`AGENTS.md` is the broader convention (also picked up by Codex, Cursor, and
other coding agents). Keeping the canonical text in one place avoids drift.
