Two doors
One spine. Pick the honest start.
New bench: folders, then what a repo is. No job repo yet? Pick a passion project — one small thing you actually want. That folder is your Build desk through C11. Already a repo: prove git status in a tree you already work in. Both meet at sign-in and the TUI. If the proof is a guess, take the new bench.
Passion project OK. Still two doors only — New bench / Already a repo. Passion project lives inside New bench.
