- CLAUDE.md: Teaching mode instructions and architecture overview - teaching-todo.md: 5-phase curriculum building toward Record type - teaching-notes.md: Detailed implementation notes (for Claude reference) The learning project implements a Record type (immutable named container) and BUILD_RECORD opcode, covering PyObject fundamentals, type slots, the evaluation loop, and build system integration.
Document practical issues encountered during Record type implementation: - Hash constants not publicly exposed (copy from tupleobject.c) - GC trashcan macros for deep recursion protection - PyUnicode_Compare error handling - Opcode number selection (166 after DICT_UPDATE) - Python-level constructor (tp_new) for testing - Type initialization order in object.c and bltinmodule.c - Correct allocator (PyObject_GC_NewVar) - tp_basicsize calculation for flexible array members Also added testing checklist for verifying implementation.

Claude teach-in
This is an idea I had recently to make Claude 'onboard' me to a repo. I used CPython because I wanted to learn a bit about python internals. I'll expand more on this later...
