Once the branching structure is in place, add instructions to CLAUDE.md enforcing the branching strategy:

- Never commit directly to `main`
- Day-to-day work happens on `develop`
- New work is done on `feature/*` branches off `develop`
- Merge flow: `feature/*` → `develop` → `main`
- `main` is always production-ready
