# Central Documentation Rules

## Rule #1: Read Central Docs First

**BEFORE making any changes or starting work, ALWAYS:**

1. **Read the Central Documentation README:**
   - Location: `D:\Dev\repos\mcp-central-docs\README.md`
   - This shows all important documentation "branches" (folder trees)
   - Navigate from there to find specific information

2. **Follow Documentation Branches:**
   - Central docs are organized by topic (Anthropic ecosystem, Google ecosystem, patterns, projects, etc.)
   - Each branch has its own README explaining what's inside
   - Use the branch structure to find relevant docs

3. **Check for Existing Patterns:**
   - Look in `docs/patterns/` for design patterns
   - Check `templates/` for reusable templates
   - Review `docs/projects/` for similar project examples

4. **Avoid Duplication:**
   - Search existing docs before creating new ones
   - Update existing docs rather than creating duplicates
   - Reference central docs instead of copying content

## Session Context (Calibre MCP)

You have access to a Calibre e-book library with 21 portmanteau tools for search, management, export, and RAG.

**Before starting work:**
1. Search your library: `calibre_search(operation="search_books", query="<query>")`
2. Check library health: `calibre_manage(operation="library_health")`

**At end of work, save findings:**
- Use `calibre_export` to save results and `calibre_manage` to update metadata
- Any books discussed or found should be tagged for future reference
