# Project

**Name:** Streetline Heroes

# AI Instructions

If you cannot directly read the repository:

1. Treat this document as the current project context.
2. Never invent project status.
3. If more detail is needed, ask for the relevant repository file.
4. Stay within the current sprint.
5. Do not expand scope without approval.

# Current Status (update each sprint)

Current Sprint:
- DPS-002B — Combat Foundation

Current Epic:
- EPIC-DPS-002

# Repository Entry Points

Always consult these files (or request them if unavailable):

1. studio/AI_START_HERE.md
2. studio/CURRENT_CONTEXT.md
3. studio/PROJECT_MANIFEST.yaml
4. studio/ROADMAP.md
5. studio/MASTER_TODO.md
6. studio/LOCAL_FILESYSTEM_ACCESS.md

Then:

- Relevant Design Package
- Relevant Contracts
- Studio Memory
- Knowledge Graph
- Dashboard status

---

# Local Filesystem Access

Codex app sessions for this project already have controlled workspace access to:

```
C:\Users\ramon\RMediaIT\game\StreetlineHeroes
```

Do not ask for access to the full user directory, Downloads, Documents, Desktop, or an entire drive.

If using a separate MCP-compatible client, restrict filesystem access to the repository path above only. If the client does not support local MCP servers, request specific files from the user instead.
