+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Overview
+
+HARB is a multi-component DeFi protocol implementing a Harberger tax mechanism with dynamic liquidity provisioning. The project consists of:
+
+- **Smart Contracts** (Solidity/Foundry) - Core protocol logic
+- **TypeScript Library** (harb-lib) - Helper functions and GraphQL client
+- **Subgraph** (AssemblyScript) - Blockchain data indexing
+- **Transaction Bot** (Node.js) - Automated market making service
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+1. **Harberg Contract** (`onchain/src/Harberg.sol`) - Main protocol contract implementing Harberger tax mechanism
+2. **Stake Contract** (`onchain/src/Stake.sol`) - Staking mechanism for sentiment data
+3. **LiquidityManager Contract** (`onchain/src/LiquidityManager.sol`) - Uniswap V3 liquidity management
+4. **Optimizer Contract** (`onchain/src/Optimizer.sol`) - Dynamic liquidity optimization
+
+### Key Architecture Patterns
+
+- **Upgradeable Contracts**: Uses OpenZeppelin's upgradeable pattern
+- **Uniswap V3 Integration**: Direct integration with Uniswap V3 for liquidity provision
+- **Genetic Algorithm Approach**: Plans to evolve liquidity strategies using on-chain algorithms
+- **Sentiment Oracle**: Uses staking data (% staked, average tax rate) as sentiment indicators
+
+## Development Commands
+
+### Smart Contracts (onchain/)
+
+```bash
+# Setup dependencies
+git submodule init
+git submodule update
+cd lib/uni-v3-lib && yarn
+
+# Build contracts
+forge build
+
+# Run tests
+forge test
+
+# Format code

+# Deploy (requires .env setup)
+forge clean && forge cache clean
+source .env
+forge script script/BaseSepoliaDeploy.sol:BaseSepoliaDeploy --slow --broadcast --verify --rpc-url ${BASE_SEPOLIA_RPC_URL}
+```
+
+### TypeScript Library (harb-lib/)
+
+```bash
+# Run tests
+npm test
+
+# Generate GraphQL types
+npm run compile
+
+# Watch for changes
+npm run watch
+```
+
+### Subgraph (subgraph/base_sepolia/)

+```bash
+# Generate code
+npm run codegen
+
+# Build subgraph
+npm run build
+
+# Deploy to The Graph
+npm run deploy
+
+# Run tests
+npm run test
+```
+
+### Transaction Bot (services/txnBot/)
+
+```bash
+# Start service
+node service.js
+```
+
+## Key Contracts and Interfaces
+
+### Harberg.sol
+- Main protocol contract implementing Harberger tax
+- Integrates with Uniswap V3 for token swaps
+- Manages tax collection and distribution
+
+### LiquidityManager.sol
+- Handles Uniswap V3 position management
+- Implements recentering logic for dynamic liquidity
+- Uses UniswapHelpers for price calculations
+
+### Stake.sol
+- Staking mechanism for HARB tokens
+- Collects sentiment data through staking behavior
+- Provides tax rate and staking percentage data
+
+## Deployment Addresses

+- LP: `0x7fd4e645ce258dd3942eddbeb2f99137da8ba13b`
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- **Unit Tests**: Individual contract functionality
+- **Integration Tests**: Cross-contract interactions
+- **Gas Optimization**: Use `forge snapshot` for gas tracking
+- **GraphQL Tests**: Test subgraph queries and data accuracy
+
+## Key Libraries and Dependencies
+
+- **OpenZeppelin**: Upgradeable contracts, ERC20, access control
+- **Uniswap V3**: Core liquidity provision and swapping
+- **ABDK Math**: Fixed-point arithmetic operations
+- **Apollo Client**: GraphQL client for subgraph data
+- **Ethers.js**: Ethereum interaction library
