How Curation Works
The injector reads every YAML file in your .standards/ directory
and injects them all. No config files. No toggles. Just files in a directory.
Remove a standard: delete the file.
Add your own: drop a YAML file in.
Customize: edit any file directly.
Update: run project-object update to pull latest from upstream.
Share upstream: submit a PR to Community Standards so everyone benefits.
Commit .standards/ to version control and
every developer on your team gets the same governed experience.
