Add /mode command — auto-detecting work mode with terminal color

Five modes: client (orange), dev (cyan), infra (red), general (blue),
remediation (purple). Auto-detects from user messages using keyword
priority rules. Manual override via /mode <name>. Color changes via
/color on mode transitions. Posture adjusts per mode (e.g., infra =
confirm-before-destructive, dev = delegate freely).

+## Work Mode (auto-detect + color)
+
+Claude operates in one of five modes. Mode determines terminal color and operational posture. **Auto-detect on every user message** using these priority rules (first match wins):
+
+1. **remediation** (purple) — "remediation tool", "365", "breach", "tenant sweep", M365 keywords
+2. **client** (orange) — client name mentioned (check `clients/` dirs), work under `clients/`, "for \<client\>"
+3. **infra** (red) — server names/IPs (AD2, Jupiter, 172.16.x.x), SSH, firewall, DNS, deploy, service restart
+4. **dev** (cyan) — code, build, compile, Rust/cargo, npm, GuruRMM dev, testing, work under `projects/`
+5. **general** (blue) — default
+
+**On mode change:** update `identity.json` "mode" field, change terminal color, announce briefly: `[MODE -> infra]`. Don't interrupt workflow.
+
+**Manual override:** user can run `/mode <name>` to force a mode. `/mode auto` re-runs detection. `/mode` shows current.
+
+**Posture by mode:**
+- **client (orange):** careful with data, session logs go to `clients/`, always name the client
+- **dev (cyan):** delegate freely to Coding/Testing agents, less confirmation friction
+- **infra (red):** confirm before destructive ops, backup-first, double-check IPs
+- **general (blue):** lightweight, default
+- **remediation (purple):** Graph API focus, compliance language, full audit trail

+# /mode — Set or view the current work mode
+
+Manually set the work mode, or let it auto-detect. Mode controls the terminal color and adjusts Claude's operational posture.
+
+## Usage
+
+```
+/mode                  Show current mode
+/mode client           Switch to client mode (orange)
+/mode dev              Switch to development mode (cyan)
+/mode infra            Switch to infrastructure mode (red)
+/mode general          Switch to general mode (blue)
+/mode remediation      Switch to remediation/365 mode (purple)
+/mode auto             Re-run auto-detection from current context
+```
+
+## Modes
+
+| Mode | Color | Posture |
+|---|---|---|
+| **client** | orange | Working on/for a specific client. Extra care with data handling. Session logs go to `clients/<name>/session-logs/`. Credential access audited. Always identify the client in session logs. |
+| **dev** | cyan | Building features, writing code, testing. Delegate freely to Coding/Testing agents. Use Ollama for drafts when available. Less confirmation friction on non-destructive operations. |
+| **infra** | red | Infrastructure work — servers, firewalls, DNS, deployments, backups. Confirm before any destructive or hard-to-reverse operation. Backup-first mentality. Double-check IPs and hostnames. |
+| **general** | blue | Research, planning, documentation, email drafts, general questions. Default mode. Lightweight posture. |
+| **remediation** | purple | M365 tenant work, breach investigation, security remediation. Graph API focus. Compliance-grade language. Full audit trail. |
+
+## When invoked
+
+1. Set the mode in `.claude/identity.json` under a `"mode"` key
+2. Run the color change: invoke `/color <mode_color>`
+3. Confirm to user: "Mode: **<mode>** (<color>)"
+
+## Auto-detection rules
+
+When `/mode auto` is called, OR at session start, OR when the user shifts topics, determine mode from context:
+
+**Priority order (first match wins):**
+
+1. **remediation** — user said "remediation tool", "365", "breach", "tenant sweep", or `/remediation-tool` was invoked
+2. **client** — user mentions a client name (check `clients/` subdirectories for name matches), or current work is under `clients/`, or user said "for <client>"
+3. **infra** — user mentions servers by name/IP (AD2, Jupiter, Uranus, pfSense, 172.16.x.x), SSH commands, firewall rules, DNS changes, service restarts, or "deploy to production"
+4. **dev** — user mentions code, building, compiling, Rust/Python/Node, cargo, npm, GuruRMM development, writing features, testing, or current work is under `projects/`
+5. **general** — default if nothing else matches
+
+**On mode change (auto or manual):**
+- Update `.claude/identity.json` with `"mode": "<mode>"`
+- Change terminal color via `/color <color>`
+- Log the transition: `[MODE] general → infra (detected: SSH to 172.16.3.30)`
+
+**Silent auto-switching:** When auto-detection triggers a mode change mid-session, announce it briefly: `[MODE → infra]` and switch the color. Don't interrupt the user's flow with a long explanation. If the detection seems wrong, the user can override with `/mode <correct_mode>`.
+
+## Session log integration
+
+Session logs should include the mode in the User section:
+
+```markdown
+## User
+- **User:** Mike Swanson (mike)
+- **Machine:** DESKTOP-0O8A1RL
+- **Role:** admin
+- **Mode:** infra (red)
+```
+
+If mode changed during the session, note the transitions:
+
+```markdown
+- **Mode:** general → infra → dev (transitioned during session)
+```
