# ArcKit Project Initialization
## User Input
```text
$ARGUMENTS
```
## Instructions
1. **Check if project structure already exists**:
- Look for `projects/` directory in the current working directory
- If it exists, inform the user and ask if they want to continue
2. **Create the project structure**:
- Create directories `projects/000-global/policies/` and `projects/000-global/external/` (these will be created automatically when saving files with the Write tool, or use Bash `mkdir` if needed)
3. **Provide next steps**:
```text
ArcKit project structure initialized:
projects/
├── 000-global/
│ ├── policies/ (organization-wide policies)
│ └── external/ (external reference documents)
Next steps:
1. Run $arckit-principles to create architecture principles
2. Run $arckit-stakeholders to analyze stakeholders for a project
3. Run $arckit-requirements to create requirements
Individual projects will be created automatically in numbered directories (001-*, 002-*).
