+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+This is a Kotlin Multiplatform project using Compose Multiplatform, targeting Android, iOS, and Desktop (JVM). The project is called "The Abstraction Engine" with the package namespace `coffee.liz.abstractionengine`.
+
+## Build Commands
+
+### Building
+- **Android Debug Build**: `./gradlew :composeApp:assembleDebug`
+- **Android Release Build**: `./gradlew :composeApp:assembleRelease`
+- **Desktop Build**: `./gradlew :composeApp:packageDistributionForCurrentOS`
+
+### Running
+- **Desktop App**: `./gradlew :composeApp:run`
+- **iOS App**: Open `iosApp/` directory in Xcode and run from there
+- **Android App**: Use Android Studio run configurations or `./gradlew :composeApp:installDebug`
+
+### Testing
+- **Run Common Tests**: `./gradlew :composeApp:testDebugUnitTest`
+- **Run All Tests**: `./gradlew test`
+
+### Clean
+- **Clean Build**: `./gradlew clean`
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Source Structure
+
+The project follows Kotlin Multiplatform's platform-specific source set structure:
+
+- **composeApp/src/commonMain/kotlin**: Shared code for all platforms
+  - Contains the main `App.kt` composable and shared business logic
+  - Uses Compose Multiplatform for cross-platform UI
+  - Platform-agnostic interface definitions (e.g., `Platform.kt`)
+
+- **composeApp/src/androidMain/kotlin**: Android-specific implementations
+  - `MainActivity.kt`: Android app entry point
+  - `Platform.android.kt`: Android platform implementations
+
+- **composeApp/src/iosMain/kotlin**: iOS-specific implementations
+  - `MainViewController.kt`: iOS app entry point
+  - `Platform.ios.kt`: iOS platform implementations
+
+- **composeApp/src/jvmMain/kotlin**: Desktop (JVM) specific implementations
+  - `main.kt`: Desktop app entry point with window configuration
+  - `Platform.jvm.kt`: JVM platform implementations
+
+- **iosApp/**: Native iOS app wrapper that hosts the Compose Multiplatform framework
+
+### Platform Abstraction Pattern
+
+The codebase uses the expect/actual pattern for platform-specific implementations:
+1. Define an `expect` declaration in `commonMain` (e.g., `Platform.kt`)
+2. Provide `actual` implementations in each platform source set (androidMain, iosMain, jvmMain)
+
+### Key Dependencies
+
+- **Compose Multiplatform 1.9.0**: UI framework
+- **Kotlin 2.2.20**: Language version
+- **AndroidX Lifecycle 2.9.4**: ViewModel and lifecycle support
+- **Compose Hot Reload**: Development feature for faster iteration
+
+### Build Configuration
+
+- Uses Gradle version catalogs (`gradle/libs.versions.toml`) for dependency management
+- Android targets API 36, minimum API 24
+- JVM target is Java 11
+- iOS targets arm64 and simulator arm64
+- Desktop distribution formats: DMG (macOS), MSI (Windows), DEB (Linux)
+
+## Development Notes
+
+### Entry Points
+- **Desktop**: `coffee.liz.abstractionengine.MainKt` (composeApp/src/jvmMain/kotlin/coffee/liz/abstractionengine/main.kt:6)
+- **Android**: `MainActivity` (composeApp/src/androidMain/kotlin/coffee/liz/abstractionengine/MainActivity.kt)
+- **iOS**: `MainViewController` (composeApp/src/iosMain/kotlin/coffee/liz/abstractionengine/MainViewController.kt)
+
+### Adding Platform-Specific Code
+When adding functionality that requires platform APIs:
+1. Add the interface/expect declaration in `commonMain/kotlin/coffee/liz/abstractionengine`
+2. Implement actual platform-specific versions in the corresponding platform source sets
+3. Platform implementations can use native APIs (Android SDK, iOS UIKit, JVM Swing)
+
+### Resource Management
+Compose resources are stored in `composeApp/src/commonMain/composeResources/` and are accessible via the generated `Res` object.
