# CleanOS

CleanOS is a planned AI-native operating system for residential cleaning companies.

This repository is for strategy, product planning, architecture, and eventually implementation.

## Current purpose

Right now this repo is for clarifying:
- the product thesis
- the strict MVP
- the first dogfood version for No More Chores
- the build sequence Claude Code should follow later

It is intentionally planning-first, not code-first.

## Suggested workflow

1. Start with `docs/claude-kickoff.md` plus the files in `docs/context-pack.md`
2. Use regular Claude to refine the product thesis, strategic role, MVP, architecture, and milestones
3. Force a clear decision on wedge, sequencing, and opportunity cost before talking implementation
4. Only then hand one tightly scoped milestone at a time to Claude Code

## Repo layout

- `docs/claude-kickoff.md` — suggested opening prompt for Claude
- `docs/context-pack.md` — recommended file bundle and reading sequence
- `docs/nmc-strategy-context.md` — strategic context from No More Chores
- `docs/current-business-priorities.md` — current NMC priorities CleanOS must compete with
- `docs/strategy-fit-with-nmc.md` — framing for CleanOS as internal leverage vs product
- `docs/launch27-replacement-reality.md` — reality check on replacement strategy
- `docs/hubspot-decision-frame.md` — CRM ownership and architecture decision frame
- `docs/product-thesis.md` — canonical product thesis
- `docs/mvp.md` — strict MVP definition and non-goals
- `docs/architecture.md` — recommended MVP architecture
- `docs/milestones.md` — proposed milestone sequence
- `docs/open-questions.md` — unresolved decisions and research gaps
- `docs/architecture-source.md` — original architecture notes
- `docs/open-questions-source.md` — original next-steps notes
- `docs/research/` — supporting research docs

## Notes

Some files here are source material copied from earlier planning. Treat the canonical docs as the working source of truth as they evolve.
