Initialize .gitignore with Claude Code specific patterns	Read, Edit, Write, Bash(echo:*), Bash(cat:*), Bash(test:*)	workflow

Initialize .gitignore for Claude Code

Set up or update the project's .gitignore file with Claude Code specific patterns.

Core Claude Code Files to Ignore

Ensure these Claude Code local configuration files are ignored:

• CLAUDE.local.md - Local AI assistant instructions (root)
• .claude/settings.local.json - Personal Claude Code settings
• .mcp.local.json - Local MCP server configuration (root)

Development Patterns

These common development artifacts will also be added:

• temp/ - Temporary working directory
• temp-*/ - Temporary directories with prefix
• test-*/ - Test directories with prefix
• debug-*.js - Debug scripts
• test-*.js - Test scripts
• *-test.js - Test files with suffix
• *-debug.js - Debug files with suffix

Current .gitignore Status

![ -f .gitignore ] && echo "EXISTS: .gitignore found" && echo "---CONTENTS---" && cat .gitignore || echo "MISSING: No .gitignore file found"

Task

Based on the above status:

1. Create .gitignore if it doesn't exist
2. Add all patterns that aren't already present
3. Preserve existing entries and comments
4. Report what was added

Patterns to Add

# Claude Code local files
CLAUDE.local.md
.claude/settings.local.json
.mcp.local.json

# Temporary and debug files
temp/
temp-*/
test-*/
debug-*.js
test-*.js
*-test.js
*-debug.js

Implement this by:

1. Using the gitignore status above to determine what's missing
2. Adding missing patterns with appropriate comments
3. Preserving the existing file structure and entries
