# Update Docs — Documentation Maintenance

Keep project documentation synchronized with the current state of the code. Updates the core `docs/ai-context/` files and `CLAUDE.md` as needed.

## Core Documentation Principle

**Compress aggressively — the default for every line is DELETE.** A line earns its place only when it encodes something an AI agent cannot derive from the code, git log, or spec.md. Every run prunes as much as it adds.

**Document current "is" state only — never reference legacy implementations or what changed.**

- Write as if the documentation is being read for the first time
- No "previously", "was changed from", "used to be", or "improved" language
- No migration notes or upgrade paths within the docs themselves
- If something was removed, remove it from docs — don't leave a "removed X" note
