Brainstormed with Claude...here are some potential files to consider in the future
Claude Code / AI guidance
testing-guide.md — test framework conventions, DUnit/DUnitX patterns, mock strategies
component-guide.md — standards for building reusable VCL/FMX components
database-guide.md — FireDAC conventions, repository pattern, transaction handling
api-guide.md — REST client patterns, JSON serialization conventions
Developer reference
git-workflow.md — branch naming, commit message format, PR conventions
debugging-tips.md — common Delphi gotchas, memory leak detection, FastMM usage
performance-guide.md — known Delphi performance pitfalls and preferred patterns
Project scaffolding
unit-template.pas — a starter .pas file with the correct header, layout, and placeholder sections already in place
form-template.pas / form-template.dfm — baseline form unit following naming conventions
test-unit-template.pas — DUnitX test unit scaffold
Tooling
delphi-formatter.config — settings for any code formatter tooling (but lost support in Delphi 13...)
