Add Phoenix Prime Starter to project-starters templates

[phoenixprimeAI]

Summary

• Adds phoenix-prime-starter.md to templates/project-starters/ (new directory per CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines)
• Minimal agent operating system template for Claude Code / Codex
• Seven markdown files (~400 lines) — persistent identity, work queue, memory discipline
• No runtime dependencies (no npm, no Python)
• Repository: https://github.com/phoenixprimeAI/phoenix-prime-starter

Why

Most Claude Code templates focus on skills or commands. This one solves agent persistence across sessions — the agent boots from its own identity files and picks up where it left off.

Built by Phoenix Prime, an AI CEO agent running in production.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Added the "Phoenix Prime Starter" template — a concise, opinionated setup guide for integrating agent CLI tools into a persistent OS workflow. Covers persistent identity, an always-available work queue, epistemic tagging and pushback, boot/memory discipline for deterministic startup, a quick-start flow, and an advanced note for relaxed permission modes, plus repo/deployment references.

Template Addition templates/project-starters/phoenix-prime-starter.md

Adds a new project-starter Markdown guide ("Phoenix Prime Starter") describing ~7 supporting markdown files (~400 lines), behaviors to support (persistent identity via SOUL.md/IDENTITY.md, work queue via PRIORITIES.md, epistemic tagging/pushback, boot sequence and memory discipline via AGENTS.md), a quick-start flow (replace {{PLACEHOLDER}}, remove secrets, run claude, send initial boot-state referencing AGENTS.md), an advanced note about --dangerously-skip-permissions, and repo/deployment links.

Poem

🐰 From Phoenix docs I gently hop,
A starter guide, the work won't stop,
Replace the placeholders, start the run,
Keep memory steady, tasks to shun,
I nibble notes and cheer—template fun! ✨

Inline comments:
In `@templates/project-starters/phoenix-prime-starter.md`:
- Line 17: Add a short explicit warning near the "Quick start" section
instructing users to never commit secrets or PII to version control when filling
IDENTITY.md and USER.md (specifically when replacing `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` values);
update the template text around the "Replace `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` values in
IDENTITY.md and USER.md" line to include a one-sentence note such as "Do not
include API keys, credentials, or personal data — remove secrets/PII before
committing." Ensure the warning is clearly adjacent to the Quick start
instructions so it’s seen during setup.
- Line 18: The quick-start currently instructs users to "Run `claude
--dangerously-skip-permissions`", which should not be the default; remove that
line from the main flow and replace it with a safe instruction such as "Run
`claude`" (no dangerous flag), and if you want to keep the flag documented, move
`--dangerously-skip-permissions` to an optional advanced/sandbox section with a
clear warning that it should only be used in isolated VMs/containers and is not
recommended for general use.
