 - **Two-channel pattern (MCP read, gh CLI write) is GitHub-specific, not universal.** Future providers will likely be CLI-only. The MCP fallback logic should be inside the GitHub provider, not in the generic interface.
 - **Git remote URL parsing covers 95% of provider detection.** `github.com` → GitHub, `dev.azure.com`/`visualstudio.com` → ADO, `gitlab.com` → GitLab. Self-hosted instances need CLI-based detection (is `glab` configured?). Generic is the fallback.
 - **ADO is the hardest provider.** WIQL for search, Tags for labels, Iterations for milestones, Work Item Types for issues — every concept has an impedance mismatch. GitLab is the easiest (glab mirrors gh closely). Estimate: ADO 23h, GitLab 12h, GitHub reorganization 9h.
+- **Project type detection via marker files (issue #87).** `detectProjectType(dir)` checks for `package.json` (npm), `go.mod` (go), `requirements.txt`/`pyproject.toml` (python), `pom.xml`/`build.gradle` (java), `*.csproj`/`*.sln` (dotnet), falling back to `unknown`. Five project-type-sensitive workflows (`squad-ci`, `squad-release`, `squad-preview`, `squad-insider-release`, `squad-docs`) get stubs with TODO comments for non-npm projects. Six GitHub-API-only workflows always copy verbatim. Tests updated to add `package.json` in temp dirs where byte-for-byte template match is asserted (that test is semantically "npm project gets verbatim copy"). All 72 tests pass.

+### 2026-02-20: Project Type Detection for Workflow Generation
+
+**By:** Fenster (Core Developer)  
+**Issue:** #87  
+**Branch:** `squad/87-project-type-detection`  
+
+**Decision:** Implement project type detection in `index.js` so that `squad init` and `squad upgrade` do not install broken npm/Node.js workflow commands into non-Node projects.
+
+**Detection Logic:** Marker files checked in target directory, first-match wins:
+
+| Marker | Detected Type |
+|--------|--------------|
+| `package.json` | `npm` |
+| `go.mod` | `go` |
+| `requirements.txt` or `pyproject.toml` | `python` |
+| `pom.xml`, `build.gradle`, `build.gradle.kts` | `java` |
+| `*.csproj` or `*.sln` | `dotnet` |
+| (none of the above) | `unknown` |
+
+**Behavior:**
+- **npm projects:** All workflows copied verbatim (existing behavior unchanged).
+- **Non-npm known types:** Project-type-sensitive workflows get a stub with `# TODO: Add your {type} build/test commands here`.
+- **Unknown type:** Stub with `# TODO: Project type was not detected — add your build/test commands here`.
+
+**Impact:** Workflows affected: `squad-ci.yml`, `squad-release.yml`, `squad-preview.yml`, `squad-insider-release.yml`, `squad-docs.yml`. Unaffected (GitHub API only): `squad-heartbeat.yml`, `squad-main-guard.yml`, `squad-triage.yml`, `squad-issue-assign.yml`, `sync-squad-labels.yml`, `squad-label-enforce.yml`.

+# Session Log: Issues #86 & #87
+
+**Date:** 2026-02-20  
+**Issues:** #86 (Git Checkout Safety), #87 (Project Type Detection)  
+**Agents:** Verbal, Hockney, Fenster  
+**Outcome:** All 72 tests pass.
+
+## What Happened
+
+Three agents spawned in background mode to work on data safety and project initialization:
+
+| Agent | Role | Issue | Result |
+|-------|------|-------|--------|
+| **Verbal** | Prompt Engineer | #86 | Added Git Safety rules to spawn templates and Fenster charter |
+| **Hockney** | Tester | #86 | Wrote 8 regression tests for uncommitted-change protection |
+| **Fenster** | Core Dev | #87 | Implemented project type detection in index.js, workflow stub generation |
+
+## Decisions Merged
+
+- **fenster-project-type-detection.md** — Project type auto-detection for npm/Go/Python/.NET/Java; workflow generation logic updated to stub non-npm types with helpful comments.
+
+## Key Outcomes
+
+- ✅ Issue #86: Git checkout now refuses operations with uncommitted changes. Tests validate protection.
+- ✅ Issue #87: `squad init` and `squad upgrade` now detect project type and generate appropriate workflows (stub for non-npm, verbatim for npm).
+- ✅ All 72 tests pass.
+
+## Branches
+
+- `squad/86-prevent-git-checkout-data-loss` — Git Safety work
+- `squad/87-project-type-detection` — Project Type Detection work
+
+Both branches working concurrently, test suite validating both.

+**Mode:** background  
+**Date:** 2026-02-20T09:27:43Z  
+
+## Work Completed
+
+- Implemented `detectProjectType()` function in `index.js` to auto-detect project type
+- Implemented `generateProjectWorkflowStub()` for non-npm project types (Go, Python, .NET, Java/Kotlin)
+- Updated workflow generation logic to stub non-npm/unknown project types with helpful TODO comments
+- Updated init, upgrade, and upgrade-already-current paths to use project-type-aware workflow logic
+- Marker file detection: package.json, go.mod, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, pom.xml, build.gradle, build.gradle.kts, *.csproj, *.sln
+- All 64 tests pass
+
+## Outcome
+
+✅ Success. 64/64 tests pass. Project type detection is now live in `index.js`.
+
+## Key Files Modified
+
+- `index.js` — `detectProjectType()`, `generateProjectWorkflowStub()`, workflow copy dispatch
+- `test/workflows.test.js` — 2 tests updated to add package.json to temp dirs before init
+- `.ai-team/agents/fenster/charter.md` — Git Safety section added (see Verbal's work on #86)

+Fenster and Verbal worked on overlapping concerns: Fenster added project-type detection (#87), Verbal added Git Safety rules to spawn templates (#86). Hockney's tests validate safety guarantees. All three agents coordinate on branch `squad/86-prevent-git-checkout-data-loss` / `squad/87-project-type-detection` (note: may be different branches, both work is valid).
