arach

Personal skill index for Arach (@arach). This is the entry point for understanding my projects, conventions, and how to work with my codebase.

Conventions

Always follow these when working on my projects:

• Use pnpm over npm (check for pnpm-lock.yaml first)
• Add gitmoji to all commit messages (✨ feature, 🐛 fix, 🎨 improve, etc.)
• NEVER add co-authoring attribution or "Generated with Claude Code" footers
• Allow all Puppeteer uses without asking
• Prefer editing existing files over creating new ones
