Template Notes (Remove in actual README)

Sections to customize:

  1. Replace [Module Name] with actual module name
  2. Purpose section: 2-3 sentences max, be specific
  3. Key Components: List only files that actually exist
  4. Usage examples: Real, working code examples
  5. Dependencies: Only list actual dependencies with reasons
  6. Remove template notes section when done

Optional sections (add if relevant):

  • Architecture: For complex modules with multiple components
  • Algorithms: For modules implementing specific algorithms
  • Integration: How this module integrates with others
  • Troubleshooting: Common issues and solutions

Writing guidelines:

  • Concise: Each section should be scannable
  • Examples: Always include working code examples
  • AI-friendly: Clear structure for Claude to understand
  • Actionable: Tell readers exactly what they can do
