🎯 Problem Analysis

The main CLAUDE.md is at ~24,660 tokens - approaching the 32k limit and causing slow context loading.

Content Breakdown (Root CLAUDE.md):

~35% - Kontask documentation (UI components, templates, SDK) - ~8,600 tokens
~20% - Dashboard Console & WebSocket docs - ~4,900 tokens
~15% - Mermaid.js diagrams & examples - ~3,700 tokens
~12% - Core platform info (services, testing) - ~2,960 tokens
~10% - Account management docs - ~2,460 tokens
~8% - Git/deployment/misc - ~2,040 tokens

📋 Refactoring Strategy

✓ PRESERVE (Critical for Konui)

All kontask UI templates & HTML examples
Kontask API SDK (L1, L2, L3)
Interactive components (Mermaid, Chart, Timeline, etc.)
Dark theme color palette
Button styling & choices format

→ EXTRACT to Separate Reference Files

Content	New File	~Tokens Saved
Mermaid.js diagram examples	`MERMAID-GUIDE.md`	~2,800
Dashboard Console internals	`gv/docs/gvConnectionDesign.md` (exists)	~3,500
StatusLine Hook (inactive)	Remove entirely (already in collapsible)	~600
Account management details	Move to `konsole/CLAUDE.md`	~2,000
Future Architecture (konjournal/kontext)	Move to `ROADMAP.md`	~1,200
Stability/Regression Audit details	Link only (files already exist)	~800
Duplicate UI content (in both root & konui)	Keep in konui only, reference from root	~4,000

Total potential savings: ~14,900 tokens

📁 Proposed File Structure

/konnectvol/
├── CLAUDE.md              # Core: ~12,000 tokens (platform overview)
├── KONTASK-GUIDE.md       # UI templates, SDK, examples
├── MERMAID-GUIDE.md       # Diagram syntax & examples
├── ROADMAP.md             # Future architecture (konjournal/kontext)
├── konui/
│   └── CLAUDE.md          # Konui-specific: templates, console
├── konsole/
│   └── CLAUDE.md          # +account management moved here
└── gv/docs/
    └── gvConnectionDesign.md # Already exists

✅ Expected Results

File	Before	After	Reduction
CLAUDE.md (root)	~24,660	~12,000	-51%
konui/CLAUDE.md	~10,284	~8,000	-22%
konsole/CLAUDE.md	~3,436	~5,000	+45% (moved account mgmt)

⚠️ Key Constraints

DO NOT REMOVE: Kontask UI templates, HTML examples, dark theme specs, SDK docs
DO NOT MODIFY: HTML template syntax, CSS color values, JavaScript patterns
SAFE TO EXTRACT: Verbose examples, internal architecture docs, audit details
SAFE TO CONSOLIDATE: Duplicate content between root & service CLAUDE.md files
