description: New-project bootstrap — workshop a captured idea into a standards-compliant repo (AGENTS.md + symlink, ROADMAP, canonical .gitignore, .claude wiring) and publish it to Gitea
argument-hint: [optional: working name or the idea, e.g. "new:relay" or a one-line pitch]
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Edit, Write, Grep, Glob, Agent

Bootstrap a brand-new project under `~/Projects`, standards-compliant from line one.
Optional seed from me (may be empty): $ARGUMENTS

Your complete orchestration guide — locating the inbox seed, the scope workshop, the
sign-off gate, the scaffold layout, the Gitea publish step, and the final report — is at:

    ~/Projects/standards/guides/new-project.md

Read it in full first, then follow it exactly. If you cannot read that file, stop and
report precisely that — do not improvise the bootstrap.

This runs in the main thread on purpose: scoping a new project is a conversation. Ask me
the judgment calls (the objective and non-goals, the stack, the architectural forks, the
scaffolding-plan sign-off, and the Gitea publish) and wait — nothing lands on disk before
Phase 3, and nothing is created without my sign-off in Phase 2. My remote is self-hosted
Gitea, never GitHub.
