Individual skill
project-initialization
Initializes a project from the standard dual-runtime template, preserves existing files, configures Git hooks, and creates or connects a private GitHub repository: main and dev for software projects, main only for skills workspaces. Use whenever a new project is started or an existing folder needs the dual-runtime scaffold and Git setup.

# Project Initialization
Initialize the project in the current working directory. Existing project files are preserved in
an `old*` directory for later review; do not merge them into the new scaffold during this workflow.
## Dual-Runtime Project Generation
The bundled template contains Claude project sources under `.claude/**`. Its Git hooks use the
installed `~/.claude/scripts/codex-sync-git-guard.py`: pre-commit generates and stages `AGENTS.md`,
`.agents/skills/**`, and `.codex/agents/**` after the sources are staged; pre-push checks for drift.
Host-local `.codex/.sync/**` is ignored. A reported conflict or validation error stops the action.
