But to get engine-aware, project-specific guidance, copy a **starter config** into your game project.\n\n```bash\n# Copy the base config into your game project\ncp starters/claude-config/CLAUDE.md /path/to/your-game/CLAUDE.md\nmkdir -p /path/to/your-game/.claude\ncp starters/claude-config/settings.json /path/to/your-game/.claude/settings.json\n\n# Add your engine's config (pick one)\ncat starters/godot/CLAUDE.md \u003e\u003e /path/to/your-game/CLAUDE.md    # Godot\ncat starters/unity/CLAUDE.md \u003e\u003e /path/to/your-game/CLAUDE.md    # Unity\ncat starters/unreal/CLAUDE.md \u003e\u003e /path/to/your-game/CLAUDE.md   # Unreal\n```\n\nFill in the `[BRACKETED PLACEHOLDERS]` with your game's details — project name, genre, one-liner description. Everything else works out of the box.\n\n\u003e Full setup instructions: [starters/README.md](starters/README.md)\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n---\n\n## 🏗️ Architecture\n\n```mermaid\ngraph TD\n    A[\"🧭 CLAUDE.md\u003cbr/\u003e\u003ci\u003eRouting \u0026 Config\u003c/i\u003e\"] --\u003e B[\"🎬 Agents\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e11 skills\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    A --\u003e C[\"🔧 Workflows\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e20 skills\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    A --\u003e D[\"🎯 Engine Specialists\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 skills\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    \n    B --\u003e E[\"📚 Shared Docs\u003cbr/\u003e\u003ci\u003e15 reference documents\u003c/i\u003e\"]\n    C --\u003e E\n    D --\u003e E\n    \n    E --\u003e F[\"⚡ Hooks\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e11\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    E --\u003e G[\"📄 Templates\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e20\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    E --\u003e H[\"🚀 Starters\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e3\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n    E --\u003e I[\"🎲 Genre Packs\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cb\u003e2\u003c/b\u003e\"]\n\n    style A fill:#6366f1,stroke:#4f46e5,color:#fff\n    style B fill:#3b82f6,stroke:#2563eb,color:#fff\n    style C fill:#0d9488,stroke:#0f766e,color:#fff\n    style D fill:#e11d48,stroke:#be123c,color:#fff\n    style E fill:#8b5cf6,stroke:#7c3aed,color:#fff\n    style F fill:#f59e0b,stroke:#d97706,color:#fff\n    style G fill:#f59e0b,stroke:#d97706,color:#fff\n    style H fill:#f59e0b,stroke:#d97706,color:#fff\n    style I fill:#f59e0b,stroke:#d97706,color:#fff\n```\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n## 📦 Genre Packs\n\nGenre packs are in-repo reference material that enrich existing skills with genre-specific design patterns, balance frameworks, and ideation prompts. They are not standalone skills — they are consumed by `game-brainstorm`, `game-designer`, `game-balance-check`, and `game-gdd-author` when a genre is specified.\n\n| Pack | Lines | What It Covers |\n|:---|:---:|:---|\n| **Roguelike** | 888 | Permadeath, run structure, proc-gen, meta-progression, synergy systems, Monte Carlo validation, 6+ reference games |\n| **Narrative** | 943 | Branching architecture, choice design, dialogue systems, consequence modeling, environmental storytelling, 10+ reference games |\n\n\u003e Want to contribute a genre pack?
