Claude	8b415405d9	perf: implement sparse checkout to reduce clone size by 98% ... Problem: Full repo clone was ~1.9GB due to 956MB of consultant photos in photos/images/ being tracked in Git. This caused significant slowdown at the start of every session. Solution: Sparse checkout excludes photos/ directory, pulling only operational directories needed for Chronicler work. Performance improvement: - Before: ~1.9GB clone, ~967MB .git - After: ~39MB clone, ~18MB .git - Reduction: 98% smaller Directories included in sparse checkout: docs/ automation/ deployments/ branding/ management/ nodes/ web/ Files updated with new clone commands: - SESSION-HANDOFF-PROTOCOL.md (added perf note + correct commands) - NEXT-SESSION-PROMPT.md - SESSION-START-PROMPT-TEMPLATE.md - CUSTOM-PROMPT-FOR-SESSIONS.md - docs/reference/PROJECT-INSTRUCTIONS.md Long-term recommendation: Migrate photos/ to NextCloud or separate assets repo to permanently remove binaries from operations manual.

Claude	6d228427b3	fix: Mandate DOCUMENT-INDEX.md as 3rd reading to prevent tunnel vision ... - Updated session-handoff-verification.py to check mandatory reading files - Created SESSION-START-PROMPT-TEMPLATE.md with enforced reading order - Documented MANDATORY-READING-ORDER.md (Joining → Essence → Index → Handoff → Tasks) Reason: Chronicler #23 (The Diagnostician) had tunnel vision because they didn't know DEPLOYMENT-PLAN-PART-1/2.md existed. DOCUMENT-INDEX.md shows the full landscape before decision-making. Chronicler #24	2026-02-23 05:27:53 +00:00
