Formalizes the read → lock → act → release cycle for any project
that has a PROJECT_STATE.md. Every Claude instance must:
- Re-read state before any action (not just at session start)
- Claim a lock row before touching any component
- Release lock + log result on completion or failure
- Clear stale locks (>2h) before proceeding
Applies to code edits, git ops, SSH/deploy, DB migrations, builds.
