**Date:** 2026-01-20
**Status:** All files organized, system configured for automatic placement

## What Was Done

### 1. Created Organized Folder Structure

```
D:\ClaudeTools/
├── clients/                           # CLIENT-SPECIFIC WORK
│   ├── dataforth/                    # Dataforth client folder (empty - files in projects)
│   └── horseshoe-management/         # Horseshoe Management
│       ├── CLIENT_INFO.md           # Client info & issue history
│       └── session-logs/            # Support session logs
│
├── projects/                          # PROJECT-SPECIFIC WORK
│   ├── dataforth-dos/                # Dataforth DOS Update System
│   │   ├── batch-files/             # 17 .BAT files
│   │   ├── deployment-scripts/      # 33 PowerShell scripts
│   │   ├── documentation/           # 8 markdown docs
│   │   ├── session-logs/            # DOS session logs
│   │   └── PROJECT_INDEX.md         # Complete project reference
│   │
│   └── claudetools-api/             # ClaudeTools MSP API
│       └── session-logs/            # API session logs
│
├── session-logs/                     # GENERAL/CROSS-PROJECT LOGS
│   └── YYYY-MM-DD-session.md        # Mixed work sessions
│
├── .claude/                          # CLAUDE CONFIGURATION
│   ├── commands/save.md             # Updated for project awareness
│   ├── FILE_PLACEMENT_GUIDE.md      # New placement rules
│   └── CLAUDE.md                    # Updated with organization info
│
├── credentials.md                    # SHARED CREDENTIALS (root)
├── SESSION_STATE.md                  # OVERALL PROJECT STATE (root)
└── PROJECT_ORGANIZATION.md           # MASTER INDEX (root)
```

### 2. Moved Existing Files to Correct Locations

**Dataforth DOS Project (61 files organized):**
- ✓ 17 batch files → `projects/dataforth-dos/batch-files/`
- ✓ 33 deployment scripts → `projects/dataforth-dos/deployment-scripts/`
- ✓ 8 documentation files → `projects/dataforth-dos/documentation/`
- ✓ 1 session log → `projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md`
- ✓ 1 project index → `projects/dataforth-dos/PROJECT_INDEX.md`

**Horseshoe Management Client:**
- ✓ Client info created → `clients/horseshoe-management/CLIENT_INFO.md`
- ✓ Glance/Intuit issue documented

### 3. Created Reference Documents

**Master Documents:**
1. `PROJECT_ORGANIZATION.md` - Complete system overview
2. `.claude/FILE_PLACEMENT_GUIDE.md` - Detailed placement rules

**Project-Specific:**
3. `projects/dataforth-dos/PROJECT_INDEX.md` - DOS project reference
4. `projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md` - Complete session log

**Client-Specific:**
5. `clients/horseshoe-management/CLIENT_INFO.md` - Client history

### 4. Updated Claude Configuration

**Modified Files:**
- `.claude/commands/save.md` - Now project-aware
- `.claude/CLAUDE.md` - References new organization
- File placement rules integrated

---

## How It Works Now

### When Creating New Files

Claude will automatically determine where to save based on context:

**Working on Dataforth DOS?**
- Batch files → `projects/dataforth-dos/batch-files/`
- Scripts → `projects/dataforth-dos/deployment-scripts/`
- Docs → `projects/dataforth-dos/documentation/`
- Session log → `projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/`

**Helping a Client?**
- Updates → `clients/[client-name]/CLIENT_INFO.md`
- Session log → `clients/[client-name]/session-logs/`

**Mixed/General Work?**
- Session log → `session-logs/` (root)

**ClaudeTools API Development?**
- Code → `api/`, `migrations/` (existing structure)
- Session log → `projects/claudetools-api/session-logs/`

### When Using `/save` Command

The command now:
1. Determines which project/client you're working on
2. Saves to appropriate `session-logs/` folder
3. Includes all credentials, commands, decisions
4. Updates relevant index files

### Context Recovery

When Claude needs previous context:

1. **By Project:** Check `projects/[project]/PROJECT_INDEX.md`
2. **By Client:** Check `clients/[client]/CLIENT_INFO.md`
3. **By Date:** Check appropriate `session-logs/YYYY-MM-DD-session.md`
4. **Infrastructure:** Check `credentials.md` (root)

---

## Benefits

### For You
- **Faster Context Recovery:** Files in predictable locations
- **Better Organization:** No more searching root directory
- **Client History:** All client work documented together
- **Project Focus:** Each project has complete reference

### For Claude
- **Automatic Placement:** Knows where to save files
- **Quick Searches:** Can look in specific project folders
- **Better Context:** Project-specific session logs
- **Consistent Structure:** Same pattern for all projects

## Quick Reference

### Find Dataforth DOS Info
```
projects/dataforth-dos/PROJECT_INDEX.md
```

### Find Horseshoe Management History
```
clients/horseshoe-management/CLIENT_INFO.md
```

### Find Today's Session Work
```
# If working on Dataforth DOS:
projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md

# If general work:
session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md
```

### Find Infrastructure Credentials
```
credentials.md (root - search for server/service name)
```

### Understand Organization System

## File Placement Quick Guide

| What You're Creating | Where It Goes |
|---------------------|---------------|
| DOS .BAT file | `projects/dataforth-dos/batch-files/` |
| DOS deployment script | `projects/dataforth-dos/deployment-scripts/` |
| DOS documentation | `projects/dataforth-dos/documentation/` |
| DOS session log | `projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/` |
| Client support notes | `clients/[client]/session-logs/` |
| API code | `api/`, `migrations/` (existing) |
| API session log | `projects/claudetools-api/session-logs/` |
| General session log | `session-logs/` (root) |
| Shared credentials | `credentials.md` (root) |

## Examples of Proper Placement

### Example 1: Fixed NWTOC.BAT Bug
```
New file: NWTOC.BAT v2.5
Location: projects/dataforth-dos/batch-files/NWTOC.BAT

New file: deploy-nwtoc-fix.ps1
Location: projects/dataforth-dos/deployment-scripts/deploy-nwtoc-fix.ps1

New file: NWTOC_FIX.md
Location: projects/dataforth-dos/documentation/NWTOC_FIX.md

Session log: 2026-01-20-session.md
Location: projects/dataforth-dos/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md
```

### Example 2: Helped Horseshoe Management with Glance
```
Updated: CLIENT_INFO.md
Location: clients/horseshoe-management/CLIENT_INFO.md

Session log: 2026-01-20-session.md
Location: clients/horseshoe-management/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md
```

### Example 3: Added ClaudeTools API Endpoint
```
New file: new_router.py
Location: api/routers/new_router.py (existing structure)

New file: migration
Location: migrations/versions/xxx_add_table.py

Session log: 2026-01-20-session.md
Location: projects/claudetools-api/session-logs/2026-01-20-session.md
```

## Maintenance

### Update Index Files After:
- Creating new project → Add to PROJECT_ORGANIZATION.md
- Major file additions → Update project's PROJECT_INDEX.md
- Client interactions → Update client's CLIENT_INFO.md

### Monthly Cleanup:
- Review root directory for misplaced files
- Move files to correct locations
- Update file counts in indexes

---

## Success Metrics

**Before Organization:**
- 61 DOS files scattered in root directory
- No client-specific folders
- One general session-logs folder
- Hard to find specific project context

**After Organization:**
- All 61 DOS files in `projects/dataforth-dos/`
- Client folders with history
- Project-specific session logs
- Clear separation of concerns
- Easy context recovery

---

## Next Steps

**System is ready!** Claude will now automatically:
1. Save files to correct project/client folders
2. Create session logs in appropriate locations
3. Update index files as needed
4. Maintain organized structure

**You can:**
- Continue working as normal
- Use `/save` command (now project-aware)
- Reference `PROJECT_ORGANIZATION.md` anytime
- Trust files will be in predictable locations

---

**Organization Status:** ✓ COMPLETE
**Claude Configuration:** ✓ UPDATED
**File Placement:** ✓ AUTOMATIC
**Context Recovery:** ✓ OPTIMIZED

All future work will be automatically organized by project and client!
