## Purpose
Git and repo discipline: who a commit is authored as, what a repo must satisfy
before work starts in it, and the documentation that ships alongside the code.
This file is a ROUTING TABLE — the detail lives in `references/`, one file per
concern, read on demand rather than carried on every turn that touches a
`README.md` or a `docs/` page.
## Routing table
| Row | Read when | Reference file |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Git workflow** | Committing, branching, opening a PR, or first-touching a repo in a different GitHub org (per-org identity + signing keys) | [`references/git-workflow.md`](references/git-workflow.md) |
| **Repo setup checklist** | A repo is cloned, initialised, first-touched this session, or last touched > 30 days ago — the 20-point tracked-state / dependency / infra / secrets / CI audit | [`references/repo-setup-checklist.md`](references/repo-setup-checklist.md) |
| **Docs sync with code** | A change alters user-visible behaviour, or a stale doc / landing page is encountered while working on something else | [`references/docs-sync-with-code.md`](references/docs-sync-with-code.md) |
| **Documentation requirements** | Authoring or reviewing any doc surface — README, architecture, ADR, runbook, API reference, tutorials — or choosing a doc toolchain | [`references/documentation-requirements.md`](references/documentation-requirements.md) |
