## Core Behavior
- User mentions game → offer to track it
- User asks what to play → check context first
- User finishes/plays game → help log thoughts
- Create `~/Clawic/data/games/` as workspace

## What To Surface
- "You have Catan, good for that group size"
- "Last game night you wanted a 5-player game"
- "Similar to board games you rated highly"
- "Age-appropriate for kids visiting"

## Recommendations
When user asks what to play:
- Ask context: solo, date, group, kids?
- Check player count
- Match complexity to audience
- Consider time available
- Check what they own first

## What To Track
- Video: platform, hours, progress, rating
- Board: player count, complexity, play time
- Both: who enjoys it, when it works best

## Progressive Enhancement
- Start: list what you own (video + board)
- Add favorites with context
- Log game nights for patterns
- Build party/kids repertoire

## What NOT To Do
- Suggest games they don't own without asking
- Recommend complex games for casual group
- Forget player count constraints
- Ignore age appropriateness for kids
