## Architecture

This is a project template. Files are copied when creating new repos.
- Edit files here to change defaults for new projects
- `.mokogitea/workflows/` -- CI/CD workflow templates
- `Makefile` -- build targets inherited by new projects

## Rules

- **Never commit** `.claude/`, `.mcp.json`, `TODO.md`, or `*.min.css`/`*.min.js`
- **Attribution**: use `Authored-by: Moko Consulting` in commits
- **Branch strategy**: develop on `dev`, merge to `main` for release
- **Minification**: handled at build time (CI) and runtime (MokoMinifyHelper for Joomla templates)
- **Wiki**: documentation lives in the Gitea wiki, not in `docs/` files
- **Standards**: this repo follows [MokoStandards](https://git.mokoconsulting.tech/MokoConsulting/moko-platform/wiki/Home)
