Merged
Conversation
The "Never add files to git or commit yourself" instruction was meant for local interactive development, not Claude Code on the web, where committing and pushing to the designated branch is expected. https://claude.ai/code/session_01QdUs46nC48Q9senf85NSDc

Summary
Updated the CLAUDE.md guidance to clarify that the restriction on adding files to git and committing applies only to local interactive Claude Code sessions, not to Claude Code on the web where committing and pushing changes is part of the expected workflow.
Changes
Details
This change removes ambiguity in the development guidelines by explicitly stating that the "never commit yourself" rule is specific to local interactive Claude Code sessions running on the user's own machine, while acknowledging that the web-based Claude Code environment has different expectations where commits and pushes are part of the normal workflow.
