📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

CLAUDE.md now documents Git and commit rules. It also adds Membrane test environment guidance for port checks, environmental flakiness triage, targeted package tests, and pass-count reporting.

Layer / File(s) Summary
Git and commit policy

Adds rules for explicit commit and push approval, automatic staging, change reporting, and Closes #<issue> commit references.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0c0d2

The documentation update could give conflicting guidance about local commits and may fail to detect occupied test ports, leading to unintended commits or avoidable test failures. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to reconcile the commit rule and check all documented ports.

Poem

A rabbit checks the ports in line

Keeps every commit by design
Tests one package, counts the cheer
Leaves unstaged changes clear
And closes issues when they’re mine

Reconcile the local commit policy.

Line 8 requires explicit approval before committing, but Line 48 says Committing locally is fine. Keep one rule so agents do not receive conflicting instructions. If explicit approval is required, update Line 48 to remove the local-commit exception.

Check every documented test port.

lsof -i :2000 checks only port 2000, although the rule lists five ports. A process on 2001, 3000, 7007, or 9000 can still block the tests. Use a command or loop that checks all five ports.
