Read ~/.claude/get-shit-done/references/ai-frameworks.md before asking questions. This is your decision matrix.
</required_reading>
<project_context> Scan for existing technology signals before the interview:
find . -maxdepth 2 \( -name "package.json" -o -name "pyproject.toml" -o -name "requirements*.txt" \) -not -path "*/node_modules/*" 2>/dev/null | head -5
Read found files to extract: existing AI libraries, model providers, language, team size signals. This prevents recommending a framework the team has already rejected. </project_context>
