Changes
Adds AI coding-agent guidance to the repo:
Files added/updated
CLAUDE.md- agent role, working principles, project overview, structure, boundaries (Always Do / Ask First / Never Do), security considerations, and lazy-loaded pointers intoreferences/. The central theme is the Fern generated-vs-hand-maintained split:.fernignoreis the source of truth for what's safe to edit, generated files carry the auto-generated header, and durable Management API fixes belong in the Fern spec/generators/java-v2generator rather than in local edits.AGENTS.md- importsCLAUDE.md(@./CLAUDE.md) so non-Claude tools pick up the same guidance.references/— detailed content offloaded from the root file:commands.md,testing.md,code-style.md,git-workflow.md,pitfalls.md,docs-update.md..fernignore— addsCLAUDE.md,AGENTS.md, andreferences/so these hand-maintained docs are not overwritten on the next SDK regeneration (same treatment asREADME.md/EXAMPLES.md).Note - No source code changes - docs/config only.
