Available Guidance

Read specific files based on current work:

• references/configuration.md - Module setup, auth providers, Git providers, environment variables
• references/live-editing.md - Visual editor, media management, MDC components, AI features
• references/deployment.md - SSR requirements, Git publishing, branch strategies, CI/CD

Loading Files

Consider loading these reference files based on your task:

• references/configuration.md - if installing, configuring auth/git providers, or setting env vars
• references/live-editing.md - if working with content editor, media, components, or AI features
• references/deployment.md - if deploying, configuring branches, or troubleshooting publish flow

DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.
