Claude Code ecosystem
What it does
A Claude Code plugin that derives a whole knowledge architecture from conversation — folder structure, context files, processing pipeline, hooks, navigation maps and note templates — rather than handing you a template to adapt. What you get is scaffolding, not content, and whether it sticks depends on you actually using it. The project cites 249 research claims behind its choices; the citations are there if you want to check them. MIT.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
