docs: apply vix-inspired token efficiency optimizations

- CLAUDE.md: trim ~45 lines — compress Live State Tracking, Automatic
  Context Loading, File Placement, Ollama sections; add single-agent
  guidance for coupled explore→implement tasks
- CODING_GUIDELINES.md: add GrepAI-first rule with token cost rationale;
  add GuruRMM platform parity matrix and cross-platform coding standards
- OLLAMA.md: expand tier-0 scope to include diff summarization, error
  categorization, agent phase handoff summaries, client email drafts,
  ticket classification with priority

**DO NOT** query databases directly. **DO NOT** write production code. **DO NOT** run tests. **DO NOT** commit/push.
**Single-agent for coupled tasks:** For explore → implement or explore → implement → review flows where the context is the same throughout, use one agent across all phases rather than spawning three. Each agent boundary is a cache miss and a context-handoff cost. Spawn separate agents only when tasks are genuinely independent or run in parallel.

## Automatic Context Loading (CRITICAL)
**BEFORE responding to the first message or when switching projects, AUTOMATICALLY load context:**
Load context **before responding** when any trigger fires. Never ask for info that's already in CONTEXT.md.
### Trigger 1: Project Keywords Detected
If user mentions **GuruRMM**, **Dataforth**, **tunnel**, **VASLOG**, **AD2**, **testdatadb**, etc:
1. Read the matching project CONTEXT.md:
- GuruRMM keywords → `projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm/CONTEXT.md`
- Dataforth keywords → `projects/dataforth-dos/CONTEXT.md`
- General → `CONTEXT.md` (root)
2. Query the coordination API for current state: `GET http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/status` (no auth needed for status) and `GET /api/coord/components?project_key=<key>`.
3. THEN respond with full context.
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| GuruRMM / Dataforth / project keywords | Read `projects/<project>/CONTEXT.md`, query coord API status + components |
| "continue", "resume", "back to", "finish" | Read project CONTEXT.md, check coord API for locks + unread messages |
| Servers, IPs, credentials, deploy questions | Read CONTEXT.md — answer from it, never ask |
| Uncertainty >5% about infra or recent work | Read CONTEXT.md before asking the user |
### Trigger 2: Continuation/Resume Words
If user says "continue", "let's work on", "back to", "resume", "finish":
1. Detect project from message, read project CONTEXT.md.
2. Query coordination API: `GET /api/coord/status` for active locks and in-progress workflows; `GET /api/coord/messages/unread-count?session_id=<this-session>` for pending messages.
3. Check for unread messages and display them before proceeding.
### Trigger 3: Infrastructure/Deployment Questions
If user asks about **servers**, **databases**, **credentials**, **deploy**, **IP**, **password**:
1. Check current directory for CONTEXT.md, then `projects/*/CONTEXT.md`.
2. Answer from CONTEXT.md — never ask for info that's already there.
### Trigger 4: Uncertainty >5%
If you're <95% certain about infrastructure, recent work, or next steps: read CONTEXT.md before asking the user.
### Anti-Pattern
Never ask "What did we do last time?" or "What's the server IP?" — read the CONTEXT.md first. If it's not there, then ask.
CONTEXT.md locations: `projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm/CONTEXT.md`, `projects/dataforth-dos/CONTEXT.md`, `CONTEXT.md` (root).

## Live State Tracking (ALL Projects)
**The ClaudeTools coordination API is the live source of truth for ALL projects.** Every agent session MUST use it — not PROJECT_STATE.md files (those are archived).
API base: `http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord` | No auth required for coord endpoints.
### Session Start Protocol (MANDATORY)
Run these at the beginning of every session:
**Coord API is the live source of truth.** API base: `http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord` (no auth).
### Session start
```bash
# 1. Check for messages addressed to this session or broadcast
curl -s "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/messages?to_session=<SESSION_ID>&unread_only=true"
# 2. Check overall live status
curl -s "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/status"
# 3. Check active locks on any project you plan to touch
curl -s "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/locks?project_key=<KEY>"
```
Display unread messages before any work. Mark read: `PUT /api/coord/messages/<id>/read`
Display any unread messages prominently before any other work. Mark them read:
```bash
curl -s -X PUT "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/messages/<id>/read"
```
### Before Significant Work (MANDATORY)
Claim a lock before editing code, running migrations, deploying, or touching shared resources:
### Before significant work — claim a lock
```bash
curl -s -X POST http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/locks \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"project_key":"gururmm","session_id":"DESKTOP-0O8A1RL/claude-main","resource":"server/src","description":"Adding credential endpoints","ttl_hours":2}'
# Save the returned "id" for release
-d '{"project_key":"gururmm","session_id":"DESKTOP-0O8A1RL/claude-main","resource":"server/src","description":"...","ttl_hours":2}'
```
### After Work Completes (or Fails) — MANDATORY
### After work — release lock + update component
```bash
# Release lock
curl -s -X DELETE "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/locks/<lock_id>?session_id=<SESSION_ID>"
# Update component state
curl -s -X DELETE "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/locks/<id>?session_id=<SESSION_ID>"
curl -s -X PUT "http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/components/gururmm/server" \

```
### Project Keys and Components to Track
**Softfail:** If API unreachable, continue work and log failed calls to `.claude/coord-queue.jsonl`. Drain on next `/sync`.

### Softfail When Coordination API Is Unavailable
If the coord API is unreachable (connection refused, timeout, or 5xx):
1. **Do not block work.** Continue with the task.
2. Log the failed call to `.claude/coord-queue.jsonl` (one JSON object per line):
```json
{"ts":"2026-05-12T15:30:00Z","method":"PUT","path":"/api/coord/components/gururmm/server","body":{...}}
```
3. On the next session start or `/sync`, drain the queue:
```bash
# For each line in coord-queue.jsonl, replay the call, then remove the file if all succeed
```
If coord API returns 503 with `Retry-After`, wait that many seconds and retry once before queuing locally.
### Inter-Session Messages
Send messages to specific sessions or broadcast to a project:
```bash
curl -s -X POST http://172.16.3.30:8001/api/coord/messages \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

# Omit to_session for a broadcast to everyone watching the project

## Local AI (Ollama)
Tier 0 — **Ollama is the documentation engine.** Route prose generation through it: commit messages, ticket comments, client notes, code docs. Claude reviews output, owns credentials/facts/execution. Session log narratives are written directly by Claude (Ollama too slow for /save).
Tier 0 — **Ollama is the documentation and classification engine.** Route prose, summaries, and classification through it; Claude reviews before writing or posting.

- **Other machines:** `http://100.92.127.64:11434` (Tailscale required)
