standup CLAUDE.md

Working on standup

One Python file, hooks/standup.py, plus the manifests around it. No dependencies beyond the standard library, and that is a feature worth protecting.

Before every commit

python3 hooks/standup.py self-check          # asserts the scoring and parsing logic
python3 .github/check_manifests.py           # asserts the manifest invariants
HOME="$(mktemp -d)" python3 hooks/standup.py report   # must render from an empty history

CI runs all three, plus the version check below. Run them locally first.

Bump the version. Every time.

If you change anything under hooks/, commands/ or .claude-plugin/, bump version in .claude-plugin/plugin.json in the same commit.

Installs are cached per version. A change pushed under an unchanged version reaches nobody, and it looks like it worked. This has already happened: three commits shipped under a stale 0.1.1 and no user ever saw them.

.github/check_version_bumped.py fails the build if you forget. Do not work around it.

Everything after the bump is automatic. Push to main and the release workflow tags the commit and publishes a GitHub Release. Never create a release by hand.

Traps this codebase has already fallen into

Each of these shipped once. They are cheap to reintroduce and hard to spot.

• CSS animation fill-mode: both outranks :hover. A filled animation keeps applying its final transform and opacity forever, beating any normal declaration. It silently killed the card hover lift and the dimming of hidden cards. Use backwards for staggered entrances, so the delay is covered and the property is released afterwards.
• @media (prefers-reduced-motion) must stay at the very end of the stylesheet. At equal specificity the later rule wins, so overrides placed above the rules they override do nothing at all.
• CSS beats SVG presentation attributes. .ico { fill: currentColor } overrides fill="none" on a symbol and renders outline icons as solid shapes. Style them with a class instead.
• Python 3.9 is the floor and it is tested in CI. No backslashes inside f-string expressions, which only became legal in 3.12. A local ast.parse(feature_version=(3,9)) does not catch this; only a real 3.9 interpreter does.
• Never declare hooks/hooks.json under manifest.hooks. That path loads automatically, and naming it again makes Claude Code load it twice and refuse the plugin. manifest.hooks is only for hook files outside the standard location.
• Round components, not the total. The impact score is the sum of the parts its tooltip prints. Rounding the total instead makes badges that cannot be added up.
• The tool must never record its own runs. report --summaries shells out to claude, which leaves a transcript. It is skipped via SENTINEL, both on write and on read.
