Flow-Next Setup (Optional)
Install flowctl locally and add instructions to project docs. **Fully optional** - flow-next works without this via the plugin.
Benefits
- `flowctl` accessible from command line (add `.flow/bin` to PATH)
- Other AI agents (Codex, Cursor, etc.) can read instructions from CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md
- Works without Claude Code plugin installed
Workflow
Read [workflow.md](workflow.md) and follow each step in order.
`workflow.md` is the common router. Resolve each documented gate before reading its direct `references/*.md` target. When a branch says **MUST read exactly one**, read that complete reference before acting; never preload sibling host, model-routing, model-pin, or Ralph references. Unknown/malformed routing state uses the safe/common fallback named at that gate.
Notes
- **Fully optional** - standard plugin usage works without local setup
- Copies scripts (not symlinks) for portability across environments
- Safe to re-run - will detect existing setup and offer to update
