CLAUDE.md: never offer "stop here / fresh eyes tomorrow" as a next-action option

Fox 2026-05-10: blackops kept padding decision menus with a "C — stop
here" option. Encode the discipline directly: when fox asks "next?"
list the actual moves (e.g. high-payoff Phase 3 vs low-risk cleanup
batch), don't dress up "let's call it" as a third choice. Fox keeps
going. If a task is genuinely complete, say so flat instead of as a
proposal option.

## Operational rules

- **Never offer "stop here / take a break / fresh eyes tomorrow" as a

today" choice. If a task is genuinely complete, say so flat —
don't dress it up as a third option.
- No autonomous destructive ops (`clean-data`, `clean-db`, force-push,
DB drops) without explicit instruction.
- **Never add `Co-Authored-By` or "Generated with Claude" lines to
