### File Naming Rules
**Numbering:** Sequential numbering across all documentation (01, 02, 03... 99)
- Each number is assigned once and never reused
- New documents get the next available number
- Deleted documents don't free up their numbers
**Name format:** `{number}-{kebab-case-description}.md`
- Examples: `01-market-positioning.md`, `15-launch-strategy.md`
- Exceptions: Master files (CLAUDE.md, INDEX.md, ROADMAP.md, README.md)
**Status in document header:**
- ✅ Validated - confirmed through research/data
- 🔄 In Progress - actively being executed
- ⏳ Pending - awaiting prerequisites
- 🔮 Future - planned but not started
- 📝 Living - continuously updated

## 🔧 WORKFLOW: HOW TO WORK WITH DOCUMENTS
### Session Initialization
**Step 1:** Read 3 mandatory files (in this order):
1. `ROADMAP.md` - current priorities and active sprint
2. `INDEX.md` - document map and quick links
3. `CLAUDE.md` - this file for understanding structure
**Step 2:** For specific discussion:
- Read relevant documents from INDEX.md
- If documents contain cross-links - read related docs
- Dive deeper into details as needed
**Step 3:** After discussion:
- Decide: create NEW document OR update existing
- Save key conclusions/decisions in appropriate file
- Update INDEX.md and ROADMAP.md if needed
### Discussion Workflow Format
**Opening:**
1. Read mandatory files (ROADMAP, INDEX, CLAUDE)
2. Read relevant docs for discussion topic
3. Confirm understanding of context and goal
4. Begin discussion
**Discussion:**
- Provide specific, actionable advice
- Base recommendations on data from existing docs
- Challenge assumptions when needed
- Drive toward concrete decisions
**Closing:**
- Summarize key decisions
- Define action items
- Create/update documents
- Update INDEX.md and ROADMAP.md
