mixeme bfb982cc27 docs: add CLAUDE.md pointing at the standards document
Agent sessions did not pick up docs/STANDARDS.md automatically. CLAUDE.md is
loaded every session, so it links the standards, architecture, and test docs,
repeats the few rules most often broken, and records the CGO/MSYS2 build
prerequisite and the commit-to-main convention.

GoSentry — instructions for Claude Code

Cross-platform desktop scheduler (Go + Fyne GUI). Single process: GUI, application service, scheduler, storage, and command runner in one binary.

Read before changing code

  • docs/STANDARDS.mdrequired. Code-quality rules and the list of intentional behavior. Do not "fix" anything listed there as intentional; if a change contradicts it, update the document in the same commit.
  • docs/ARCHITECTURE.md — package contracts and event flow.
  • docs/TESTS.md — test layout and conventions.
  • docs/ROADMAP.md — deliberately out of scope.

Key rules (full list in STANDARDS.md)

  • src/app.Service is the sole owner of job and runtime state; the UI reads it through typed events, never through shared mutable state.
  • User-facing errors go to dialog.ShowError or a History event — never a silent return.
  • Pure helpers get a unit test in the same package; fixes of severity ≥ medium get a regression test.
  • UI view constructors accept an injected *app.Service; app.Open() is called only from run.go.
  • Off-main-thread widget updates must go through fyne.Do (Fyne v2.6.x).

Build and test

CGO is required — the Fyne GUI links native libraries. On Windows the toolchain is MSYS2 UCRT64; the default shell environment here has CGO off, so set it explicitly:

$env:Path = 'C:\msys64\ucrt64\bin;' + $env:Path; $env:CGO_ENABLED = '1'

Then:

scripts\test.bat

which runs go vet ./... and go test -race ./.... Release binaries come from scripts\build-windows.bat / scripts/build-linux.sh — see docs/DEVELOPMENT.md.

Repository conventions

  • Commit directly to main; do not create feature branches.
  • Notable changes get a docs/CHANGELOG.md entry under the current version.
  • The window/taskbar icon comes from the gosentry.ico PE resource — regenerate it from the PNGs whenever an icon changes, not just the embedded asset.
