- Add working-directory rule to root and all project docs
- Generalize root from "HTTP web services" to "independent projects"
- Add @../CLAUDE.md inheritance to nbd, edu, quotesdb project docs
- Remove sections duplicated from root in project-level docs
- Wrap all sections in semantic XML tags for clearer agent parsing
- Rename Tech Stack → Common Patterns (framed as defaults, not requirements)
- Rename Running Services Locally → Running Projects Locally
Evaluated all quotesdb tickets and assigned each to the correct sub-project
dependency (api/f3dc74, ui/c3503b, qa/ce1e4f, infra/25c413). Also wired
inter-ticket dependencies to enforce correct implementation order within each
domain and cross-domain (e.g. QA test suites depend on the API handlers they
exercise). Validated with `nbd graph --json` — 78 nodes, 200 edges, no cycles.
