Glossary
The team's shared vocabulary. Domain terms specific to this project - what they mean, where they came from, and a parallel ## Anti-glossary section for terms you deliberately don't use (and why).

What it does for you
Onboarding velocity climbs.A new teammate (or a new agent) reads glossary.md and they know what "the Brain" and "an HTML twin" mean without asking.
Anti-glossary keeps the team aligned."We don't say 'self-driving' or 'autonomous coding' - those frame the product wrong" is a critical alignment tool. Both halves matter.
The AI uses your terms.CLAUDE.md links to glossary.md; the agent inherits your vocabulary instead of generic LLM defaults.
Configure
Nothing - glossary.md is a flat .md. The anti-glossary nests under ## Anti-glossary.
Use it well
Add a term the second time you have to explain it. Add an anti-glossary entry the second time you have to correct it. Both halves keep your AI from drifting into generic-LLM language.
