Demo Repository

A pre-configured demo repository is available in examples/demo-repo/:

  • .lorerc — Minimal configuration
  • .lore/docs/ — 3-5 real documents generated by Lore (dogfooding)
  • README.md — How to reproduce the setup

Common Use Cases

Solo Developer

# .lorerc — minimal config, zero friction
hooks:
  post_commit: true
output:
  dir: .lore/docs

Every commit triggers 3 essential questions (plus 2 optional ones for higher-stakes changes). Use lore show to review past decisions when you revisit code months later.

Open Source Project

# .lorerc — shared, committed to repo
language: "en"
hooks:
  post_commit: true
  star_prompt_after: 5
output:
  dir: .lore/docs

Contributors document their changes as they go. The corpus becomes a living design log, so new contributors can understand why things are built the way they are.
