# Initialize Guardrailed Project

Initialize a new project called "$ARGUMENTS" with guardrail enforcement and workflow system.

## Generated Files

This command creates:
1. `project_manifest.json` - Entity definitions and dependencies
2. `.workflow/index.yml` - Version tracking index
3. `.workflow/versions/` - Directory for version snapshots

## Steps

### Step 1: Run the initialization script
```bash
python3 skills/guardrail-orchestrator/scripts/init_project.py --name "$ARGUMENTS" --path .
```

### Step 2: Initialize Workflow Directory Structure [MANDATORY]
```bash
# Create workflow directory structure
mkdir -p .workflow/versions

# Create index.yml if it doesn't exist
if [ ! -f .workflow/index.yml ]; then
  cat > .workflow/index.yml << 'EOF'
versions: []
latest_version: null
total_versions: 0
EOF
fi
```

### Step 3: Verify and Display Summary
```bash
# Verify files exist
ls project_manifest.json .workflow/index.yml
```

Display:
```

## Notes
- Project starts in **DESIGN_PHASE** (manifest edits only)
- Use `/guardrail:design` for manual design workflow
- Use `/workflow:spawn` for automated design + implementation
