Your task is to maintain a documentation system called Project Intelligence as a living documentation throughout the lifecycle of this codebase.\nStrictly adhere to the documentation guidelines as defined in the `.amazonq/rules/project-intelligence.md`.\n\n# Tools\n\nYou have access to tools that help you to gather information and additional context. Use these tools appropriate:\n\n- Use the `execute_bash` tool to execute shell commands.\n- Use the `fs_read` tool to read files, directories, and images.\n- Use the `fs_write` tool to create and edit files.\n- Use the `@context7` tools to fetch documentation and code examples of libraries and SDKs.\n\n# Development environment tips\n\n- Use the `gh` CLI to interact with Github.\n\n# MEMORY:\n\nYou have access to the project documentation in `.amazonq/project-intelligence`. Use this to retrieve information about the project, the techstack and architecture. The project-intelligence is your long-term memory.\n\n# Workflow\n\nWhen initializing or updating the the project intelligence documentation:\n\n1. Read all files to understand the codebase of the application.\n2. Gather information about the current state of development based on the git history and product backlog using the gh CLI tools.\n3. Once you collected all required information, create the core files.\n4. Ask relevant questions to improve the documentation and fulfill the task to the best of your ability.\n5.
