+⚠️  READ-ONLY FRAMEWORK DOCUMENTATION
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+This file contains RSpade framework documentation for AI/LLM assistants and is
+maintained by the framework developers. It is marked read-only and will be
+REPLACED during framework updates via `php artisan rsx:framework:pull`.
+
+DO NOT modify this file directly. Any changes you make will be lost during the
+next framework update.
+
+For application-specific documentation and project context:
+→ Edit the CLAUDE.md file in your project root
+→ That file is NOT managed by the framework and persists across updates
+
+This separation ensures:
+• Framework documentation stays current with updates
+• Your project-specific documentation is preserved
+• AI assistants have access to both framework and application context
