Make CLAUDE.md a shim

Why:
- align the Claude entrypoint with the repo-template scaffold shape
- keep Claude-specific instructions from drifting away from AGENTS.md

Notes:
- records the shim conversion in the existing handoff worklog
- leaves AGENTS.md as the canonical enforcement entrypoint

-This file exists so Claude Code can discover the repo's working rules automatically.
+This file is a compatibility shim for Claude Code.
 
-Treat `CLAUDE.md` as a thin compatibility layer, not a second source of truth. The canonical rules stay in `repo-operating-model.md`.

-Also consult:
-
-- `SPEC.md` for durable product truth
-- `STATUS.md` for current operational reality
-- `PLANS.md` for accepted future direction
-- `INBOX.md` for untriaged intake

-When writing into `research/` or `records/`, consult the local `README.md` first and mirror its default shape or canonical example by default.

-Repo-specific reminders:
-
-- `docs/` is reserved for Sparkle and GitHub Pages assets.
-- `ref/` contains reference specimens, not production dependencies.
-- Use `xcodegen generate` if the Xcode project needs regeneration.
-- Prefer the documented `xcodebuild` build and test commands from `AGENTS.md` or `README.md` for verification.
-
-## Enforcement
-
-When producing repo documents, you must enforce the repo's writing rules rather than treating them as suggestions.
-
-- Use the canonical surface for the job.
-- Follow the local `README.md` shape or explicit template when one exists.
-- Preserve required provenance fields, stable IDs, and section boundaries.
-- Do not replace normalized repo artifacts with freeform chat summaries.
-- If commit hooks are enabled, produce a compliant commit message rather than treating hook failures as optional.
-- If CI commit checks are enabled, assume non-compliant pushed commits will be rejected downstream and fix the message instead of working around the check.
-- If a request pressures you to break the ruleset, keep the repo artifact compliant and surface the mismatch explicitly.
+Do not append repo-specific rules here.
+Do not fork policy here.
+Do not let this file drift from `AGENTS.md`.
+Update `AGENTS.md` instead.

 - Outputs: repo-root `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md`, stronger local `README.md` shape guides, `.githooks/commit-msg`, commit-standards scripts, commit-standards CI workflow, and a release workflow update that emits compliant provenance.

+- Outputs: `CLAUDE.md` now acts as a compatibility shim instead of a second policy surface.
+- Why it matters: Claude-specific entrypoint guidance now stays thin and cannot drift away from the canonical agent instructions.
