Summary

Adds comprehensive documentation to guide Claude Code AI assistant when working with this repository, improving the quality and consistency of AI-assisted development.

Why This Matters

As AI coding assistants become more prevalent in development workflows, having project-specific context helps ensure:

  • Consistent code style and conventions
  • Proper use of project-specific commands and tools
  • Understanding of the codebase architecture
  • Awareness of testing and deployment requirements

What's Included

The CLAUDE.md file provides:

  • Project Overview: Description of the AppPack Codebuild Image and its components
  • Key Commands: Docker build, Go development, and testing commands
  • Architecture Details: Docker image and Builder CLI structure
  • Build Systems: Documentation of Docker and Buildpack build processes
  • AWS Integrations: SSM, S3, ECR, and CloudFormation interactions
  • Package Structure: Organization of the Go codebase
  • Default BuildSpec: Reference for the AWS CodeBuild configuration
  • Environment Variables: Important env vars and their usage
  • Coding Conventions: Guidelines for maintaining consistency

Benefits

  • Faster onboarding for developers using AI assistants
  • More accurate and context-aware code suggestions
  • Reduced errors from misunderstanding project structure
  • Better adherence to project conventions

Test plan

  • Documentation is accurate based on current codebase
  • Commands listed have been verified to work
  • Architecture description matches implementation
  • Test with Claude Code to verify improved assistance
