feat(bootstrap): create-zachflow auto-runs init wizard (M-3) - #27

Conversation
Collapses the three-step Quick start (npx → cd → bash) into a single command. The npx wrapper now spawns scripts/init-project.sh directly when stdin is a TTY; CI / piped stdin / explicit --no-init retains the previous "print guidance, exit" behavior. Add tests/create-zachflow-smoke.sh covering both --no-init and non-TTY paths via an offline local bare clone. Wire it into ci.yml alongside a node --check syntax gate. Addresses M-3 from the install/setup UX review — the cd + bash second step was the most common drop-off in the three-step flow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
PR builds detach HEAD via actions/checkout, so `git symbolic-ref --short HEAD` exited 128 across all three OS runners. Materialize a local branch ref (`refs/heads/ci-smoke-head`) in the bare clone pointed at the current SHA instead — works for both detached and attached checkouts.

CI runners (Ubuntu/Windows) and fresh dev machines hit 'fatal: unable to auto-detect email address' on the initial commit because `git config --global user.name/email` was never run. create-zachflow now probes for git user.name/user.email (and the GIT_AUTHOR_* env vars), and injects 'zachflow init <init@zachflow.local>' only when neither is present. Users with an existing identity see no change to authorship. New smoke step 4/4 simulates the fresh-machine case (empty HOME, no system config, no env overrides) and asserts the commit lands.

Summary
npx create-zachflow my-projectnow auto-runsscripts/init-project.shwhen stdin is a TTY — collapses the three-step Quick start into a single command.--no-initflag preserve the old "print guidance, exit" behavior. CI-flow example in README/MANUAL updated to use--no-init.tests/create-zachflow-smoke.sh) covers both--no-initand non-TTY paths via a local bare clone. Wired into CI alongside anode --checkgate.Why
Install/setup UX review surfaced M-3 — the
cd <dir> && bash scripts/init-project.shsecond step is the most common drop-off in the three-command Quick start. Benchmark frameworks (hermes/ruflo/deer-flow) all run setup in one motion; zachflow now matches.Test plan

npx create-zachflow ... && cd ... && bash ...keep working — stdin is non-TTY in pipes, so they automatically hit the old code path (with the same "Next steps:" output).--no-initis the documented way to keep the old behavior interactively.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
