+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+Tutorial code for [Dash Platform](https://docs.dash.org/platform) demonstrating how to interact with the Dash network using `@dashevo/evo-sdk`. Covers identities, DPNS names, data contracts, and documents.
+
+## Commands
+
+```bash
+npm test                # Read-only tests (~2min, safe to run anytime)
+npm run test:read-write # Write tests (destructive, consumes testnet credits, ~5min)
+npm run test:all        # Both suites sequentially
+npm run test:setup      # Mocha tests for setupDashClient configuration
+
+npm run lint            # TypeScript type-check all JS files (tsc)
+npm run fmt             # Format with Prettier
+```
+
+**Running a single tutorial directly:**
+
+```bash
+node connect.mjs
+node 1-Identities-and-Names/identity-retrieve.mjs
+```
+
+**Running a single test file:**
+
+```bash
+node --test --test-timeout=120000 test/read-only.test.mjs
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Tutorial Structure
+
+Each tutorial is a standalone `.mjs` ESM file with top-level `await`. The pattern is consistent:
+
+```javascript
+import { setupDashClient } from '../setupDashClient.mjs';
+
+const { sdk, keyManager } = await setupDashClient();
+
+try {
+  // Tutorial logic — use sdk and keyManager
+  console.log(result.toJSON());
+} catch (e) {
+  console.error('Something went wrong:\n', e.message);
+}
+```
+
+### `setupDashClient.mjs`
+
+The central helper (~500 lines) that all tutorials import. It handles:
+
+- Loading `.env` via `dotenv`
+- BIP39 wallet derivation from `PLATFORM_MNEMONIC`
+- DIP-13 key path derivation
+- SDK instantiation (`createClient(network)`)
+- Key manager setup — returns `{ sdk, keyManager, addressKeyManager }`
+
+`keyManager.identityId` resolves automatically from the mnemonic. `keyManager.getAuth()` returns the identity, key, and signer needed for signing transactions.
+
+> **Note:** The in-memory key pattern in `setupDashClient` is for tutorials only — not suitable for production.
+
+### Test Framework
+
+Tests use Node.js built-in test runner. Each test runs a tutorial as a **subprocess** via `test/run-tutorial.mjs` and validates:
+
+- Exit code is 0
+- `stdout`/`stderr` match expected regex patterns
+- Process was not killed (no timeout)
+
+`test/assertions.mjs` provides helpers like `extractId()` and `extractKeyId()` to capture values from output for use in subsequent dependent tests.
+
+**Read-write tests** maintain a shared state object to pass IDs (contract IDs, document IDs, etc.) between sequential dependent tests.
+
+### Derivation Paths
+
+All key derivation uses standard Dash paths. External wallets/tools must use the same paths for compatibility.
+
+| Key type | Testnet path | Mainnet path |
+| - | - | - |
+| Platform address (BIP44) | `m/44'/1'/0'/0/i` | `m/44'/5'/0'/0/i` |
+| Identity master key (DIP-13) | `m/9'/1'/5'/0'/0'/0'/0'` | `m/9'/5'/5'/0'/0'/0'/0'` |
+| Identity keys 0–4 (DIP-13) | `m/9'/1'/5'/0'/0'/0'/k'` | `m/9'/5'/5'/0'/0'/0'/k'` |
+
+Where `i` = address index and `k` = key index (0=MASTER, 1=HIGH auth, 2=CRITICAL auth, 3=TRANSFER, 4=ENCRYPTION).
+
+No BIP39 passphrase is used.
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Copy `.env.example` to `.env`. Key variables:
+
+| Variable | Purpose |
+| - | - |
+| `PLATFORM_MNEMONIC` | BIP39 mnemonic; required for all write operations |
+| `NETWORK` | `testnet` (default) or `mainnet` |
+| `DATA_CONTRACT_ID` | Output of `contract-register-minimal.mjs` |
+| `DOCUMENT_ID` | Output of `document-submit.mjs` |
+| `RECIPIENT_ID` | Identity ID for credit transfers |
+| `RECIPIENT_PLATFORM_ADDRESS` | `tdash1...` address for send-funds |
+
+Read-only tests skip gracefully when `PLATFORM_MNEMONIC` is unset.
+
+### Directory Layout
+
+- **Root** — shared utilities (`setupDashClient.mjs`, `connect.mjs`, `create-wallet.mjs`, `view-wallet.mjs`, `send-funds.mjs`)
+- **`1-Identities-and-Names/`** — identity registration, top-up, key management, DPNS name registration/lookup
+- **`2-Contracts-and-Documents/`** — data contract variants (minimal, indexed, binary, timestamps, history, NFT), document CRUD, NFT operations
+- **`test/`** — test runner, assertions, read-only and read-write test suites
+- **`docs/`** — HTML/JS interactive tutorial runner (separate from Node tutorials)
+
+### Linting / Types
+
+TypeScript (`tsconfig.json`) checks JS files with `strict: true`, `noUnusedLocals: true`, targeting Node16 modules. ESLint uses `airbnb-base`. Prettier uses single quotes, 2-space tabs, trailing commas.

+### Importing an existing wallet
+
+If you already have a Dash identity created with another tool (e.g. [Dash
+Bridge](https://bridge.thepasta.org/)), you can use it directly by setting `PLATFORM_MNEMONIC` to
+your existing mnemonic. Run `node view-wallet.mjs` to confirm the derived address and identity ID.

+For compatibility, the external tool must use the same derivation paths (no BIP39 passphrase):

+The first platform address (`i=0`) must be funded for top-up and send-funds operations.
