Personal instructions

Where code lives

"The code", "the repo", "the monorepo", or any general code question refers to ~/Projects/cleo-infinite.
Anything mentioning Retool refers to ~/Projects/cleo-retool.

Never write or edit code in the main checkouts (~/Projects/cleo-infinite, ~/Projects/cleo-retool). Work in a treehouse worktree under ~/.treehouse/<repo>-<hash>/<slot>/<repo>. Check with git rev-parse --show-toplevel and git worktree list.
If code changes are needed and the current directory is not a treehouse worktree, start one yourself without asking first, then continue there. Read-only investigation can stay where it is.
Treehouse is a zsh alias for nix run github:kunchenguid/treehouse --, so it is not on PATH in non-interactive shells. Run the full nix run form, and run it with --help first rather than guessing subcommands or flags.
Branch names follow the repo's own rules (cleo-infinite: <JIRA-KEY>-short_slug from latest origin/main). Take the Jira key from the user or the current branch. If there isn't one, ask. Never invent a key.
A pool slot sitting on a detached HEAD is not necessarily free. Don't reuse a slot that has uncommitted changes or that another session may be using.
