+### 2026-04-26 — CLAUDE.md restructure, review process, ADRs
+
+**Tool:** Claude Code (Opus 4.6)
+
+**Key changes:**
+- Restructured CLAUDE.md with numbered sections (1–4) matching root repo convention
+  - Moved figure style rules under conventions (2.6) instead of separate top-level section
+  - Added git conventions (2.1), review section (2.2), session startup (3.2)
+  - Added cross-reference caveat: markdown links must use URL path, not filesystem path
+  - Fixed stale domain, docs/ description, duplicate checklist numbering
+- Made end-of-session checklist explicit — updated upstream `base/scope.md` and
+  `formats/agent.md` (both inline and reference models) with numbered checklist
+- Added review-before-merge rule to git conventions in three places:
+  upstream `base/git.md`, root imbra-spikes CLAUDE.md, and tutorial-git CLAUDE.md
+- Created ADR-007 (analytics: GSC for tutorials, Plausible for commercial) and
+  ADR-008 (playbook split rule: command + explanation + gotcha)
+- Experimented with Stop hook for session wrap-up reminders — removed in favour
+  of explicit CLAUDE.md checklist
