setup-interview

name	setup-interview
description	Domain-by-domain interview to produce $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/docs/project-context.json. Invoked once by the orchestrator; the orchestrator then conducts all turns directly using Read/Write/Edit — no agent dispatching.

Purpose

Scope constraint: during SETUP-INTERVIEW, your Write / Edit tools are restricted to $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/docs/project-context.json only. Never touch $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/src/ or any other path.

---

FIRST ACTION — startup detection

Read("$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/docs/project-context.json"):

State	Action
File missing	Start a FRESH interview from domain 1.
File exists, validated: true	Summarize existing config (template below) and ask: (a) update specific domains, or (b) restart from scratch.
File exists, validated: false	Resume from the last pending entry in interview_progress.

Existing-config summary template (validated == true)

Output a plain-text message to the user (translate into the user's language at runtime):

Here's what I already know about your project:
- Industry: <industry>
- Team size: <team_size>
- Client type: <client_type>
- Main objective: <objective>
- <N> entities defined: <comma-separated names>
- Pipeline: <pipeline_stages joined>
- <N> user roles

Would you like to:
(a) update part of this config (I'll go domain by domain),
(b) start from scratch (I'll wipe everything and redo the full interview)?

• Update intent → UPDATE flow: for each domain, ask "Current value: <…>. Keep as-is, or change it?"
• Restart intent → delete the file, start FRESH.

---

Per-turn loop (FRESH and UPDATE flows)

Each user turn during SETUP-INTERVIEW:

1. Read("$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/docs/project-context.json") — load current state.
2. Apply the user's latest answer to the relevant domain section.
3. Update interview_progress.domain_N to "done", keep validated: false.
4. Write("$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/docs/project-context.json", <full updated JSON>).
5. Move to the next pending domain.
6. Output exactly one of:
   • The next question as a plain text message to the user (no prefix, no wrapper).
   • VALIDATED — when final confirmation is received (see Final validation).
   • FAILED: <reason> — unrecoverable error.

Summarize what you understood after each domain and wait for confirmation before moving to the next. Never ask multiple domains in one turn.

Domain questions

Domain 1 — Business context

• Industry, team size, client type (B2B / B2C / mixed), main objective (prospecting, follow-up, support, other).

Domain 2 — Entities

• What objects are managed? Relationships between them?
• ⚠️ If an entity resembles contact, company, deal, tag, task, or note (already in Atomic CRM) → propose extending it ("type": "extend") rather than recreating it.

Domain 3 — Custom fields

• Specific fields per entity beyond standard fields.
• Type of each field (text / number / date / boolean / list / file).
• Required vs optional.

Domain 4 — Pipeline

• Sales or follow-up cycle stages, transition conditions, final stages (won / lost / archived).

Domain 5 — User roles

• Who uses the CRM (sales / manager / admin / support).
• Rights per role: read-only / write / delete / admin.
• Multi-tenant needed (data isolated per team)?

Domain 6 — Integrations

• Email (read / send / tracking)? Slack or other messaging?
• CSV import/export? Inbound or outbound webhooks? External API?

Domain 7 — UI/UX

• Interface language, theme (light / dark / auto), desired dashboards (KPIs / charts / lists), information density preferences.

Domain 8 — Deployment (skip entirely when MODE=demo)

• GitHub username, Supabase project name, deployment platform (Vercel recommended, or GitHub Pages), custom domain.

Cleanup derivation (run after all domains, before consistency checks)

Atomic CRM ships with default entities and features the user may not need. Before final validation, derive what should be removed to keep the CRM clean.

Default Atomic CRM elements (candidates for removal):

Element	Remove when…
company entity	User manages individuals only (no B2B account layer)
deal entity	No sales pipeline — user tracks contacts/support only
task entity	User did not mention task management
tag entity	User did not mention categorisation / labelling
Pipeline / kanban view	deal entity is removed, or no stage-based flow requested
Analytics dashboard	User did not mention KPIs, charts, or reporting
CSV import/export	User did not mention data migration or bulk operations
Multi-tenant / teams	Domain 5 answered "no" to data isolation per team

Steps:

1. Compare domain answers against the table above. Derive a candidate removal list.

2. Present it to the user as a plain text message, translated to their language.

   Language rule (strict): describe only what the user sees in the interface — sections, screens, buttons. Never mention entities, tables, components, types, or any technical term. The user interprets the business meaning; you handle the technical implications internally.

   Example (translate at runtime):

   Based on what you told me, it looks like you won't need these sections
   in your CRM — I can remove them to keep things clean:
   - <plain-language feature name>: <one-sentence business reason>
   - …
   
   Does that sound right? Anything you'd like to keep?
   

   Plain-language names to use (never the internal names):

   Internal	Say to user
   company entity	the "Companies" section
   deal entity	the "Deals" or "Sales pipeline" section
   task entity	the "Tasks" section
   tag entity	the label / tag feature
   Pipeline / kanban	the pipeline / kanban board view
   Analytics dashboard	the analytics and reporting section
   CSV import/export	the data import and export feature
   Multi-tenant	team-based data isolation

3. On user confirmation (or "all good"): populate cleanup in the JSON and Write.

4. On user adjustment ("keep X"): remove X from the list, update JSON.

If no element qualifies for removal: skip this step silently (no question asked).

Store the result in the JSON under "cleanup" before writing:

"cleanup": {
  "entities_to_remove": ["company", "tag"],
  "features_to_disable": ["pipeline", "analytics_dashboard", "csv_import_export"]
}

Consistency checks (run before final validation)

• No duplicate field names within the same entity.
• Every entity referenced in pipeline_stages exists in entities.
• Every role in user_roles has at least one permission defined.
• Existing Atomic CRM entities marked "type": "extend", not "type": "create".
• No service-role key or secret in client-side variables.

If a check fails: output one targeted INTERVIEW: question to fix it before proceeding to validation.

Final validation

When all 8 applicable domains are "done":

1. Read the JSON. Produce a compact plain-language summary in the user's language.
2. Output a plain-text message asking for confirmation (translate at runtime):

   "

   . All good? I'll lock the project spec. (yes / no)"

3. On any affirmative (yes / ok / valid / go / looks good, in any language): a. Set validated: true. Write the file. b. Bash("cd \"$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR\" && git add docs/project-context.json && git commit -m \"chore(setup): <fresh|update> project context\"") c. Output VALIDATED — the orchestrator moves to SETUP-PLAN. No additional text after this token.
4. On negative: ask which domain to revisit; re-enter that domain's questions.

---

Output format (strict)

Every orchestrator turn during SETUP-INTERVIEW ends with exactly one of:

Output	Meaning
Plain text question	Ask the user the next domain question directly; re-enter this skill on the next user turn. No wrapper, no prefix.
VALIDATED	JSON committed. Move to STATE SETUP-PLAN.
FAILED: <reason>	Unrecoverable error; surface to user, abort setup.
