Rule (B&J): when describing the marketing site tech stack, the live repo CLAUDE.md is the source of truth — not the project-knowledge tech-stack doc
Created 2026-05-24
When writing, quoting, or referencing the B&J marketing site stack, source from the CLAUDE.md file in the bj-next repo, not from the historical BoucherJones_MarketingSite_TechStack.docx in the project knowledge.
Why: the tech-stack docx was written before several stack moves and is now partially superseded. Specifically: it references Next.js 15 (now 16), no Tailwind (now Tailwind v4 + shadcn), and Express 5 as the API layer (now Next.js Route Handlers — Express 5 deferred). Publishing from the docx would put outdated technology in a case study that is meant to demonstrate currentness.
How to apply:
- Always cross-check stack claims against the repo before publication.
- The KB entry B&J marketing site stack (
bj-next, dev URLbjweb.candidcreative.ca) — VERIFIED LIVE STACK mirrors the current repo state and is safe to quote. - If the repo CLAUDE.md and the KB entry disagree, the repo wins, and the KB entry needs to be updated.
