Set up a folder for Ghost app UI development

This prepares the current folder so a fresh chat can build a Ghost app the way an outside developer would: Shade's skills installed, Shade's docs served by the local Storybook, the app SDK packed from the Ghost checkout, and an AGENTS.md that reads like an ordinary app project's.

The build chat must see only what an outside developer sees. Keep the checkout path out of every file in the folder, except the deny rules in step 8.

Do the steps in order. Each ends on a check; when one fails, stop and tell the user. Commands and file contents are in reference.md.

1. Check the folder

1. Confirm the current folder is empty. Hidden system files such as .DS_Store, or an empty .claude/, are fine. Anything else: stop and ask.
2. Ask where the Ghost checkout is, suggesting ~/Code/Ghost. It's <checkout> below.
3. Check <checkout>/apps/shade/package.json exists and the folder isn't inside <checkout>.

2. Ghost

1. Check curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' http://localhost:2368/ghost/ prints 200.
2. If not, offer to run pnpm dev:up in <checkout>, which runs Ghost in the background and prints its URL. Run it only on a yes, then check again.
3. Remind the user that Settings → Labs → Private features → Apps must be on. You can't check it without logging in.

3. Storybook

Storybook serves Shade's docs as Markdown, which the skills read.

1. Check curl -sf -o /dev/null http://localhost:6006/llms.txt succeeds. If so, go to step 4.
2. Otherwise start it detached, as in Start Storybook, and poll llms.txt every few seconds for up to three minutes. If it never answers, show the end of its log and stop.
3. Once it answers, record its process as in Start Storybook. Tell the user it keeps running after this chat, and how to stop it. Only give the stop command for a Storybook this setup started.
