+# Concepts — 2890 Claw (FRC Robotics Team)
+
+Chris coaches FRC Team 2890 (Hawk Collective) at Hickory High School. Theme: The Borg. Agent: 2890-bot.
+
+## Team Identity
+
+- **FRC Team 2890** — Hickory High School
+- **Theme:** The Borg — "You will be assimilated!"
+- **Colors:** Teal (#03818a), Black (#050505), White (#ffffff), Hot Pink (#ec40f5)
+- **Mascot:** Mothman (stylized hawk head)
+- **Discord:** 266074632056995840
+
+## Key People
+
+- **Chris Slater** — Lead Coach
+- **Mr. Douglas** — Programming Mentor
+- **Alex C** — Mentor (21 years FRC)
+- **Walt McCorkill** — Head Mentor, Bumper King
+- **Riley Meyer** — Technician, former driver
+
+## Core Systems
+
+- **Gitea** — http://2890.duckdns.org:3002/Team2890
+- **OpenClaw / 2890-bot** — team Discord integration
+- **PhotonVision** — AprilTag vision processing
+- **YAGSL** — swerve drive control
+- **WPILib** — FRC robot framework (Java)
+
+## Robot (2026: Mothman)
+
+- Game: REBUILT
+- Vision: PhotonVision (AprilTags)
+- Drive: YAGSL swerve
+
+## Core Skills
+
+- **FRC programming** — Java, WPILib, command-based architecture
+- **Swerve drive** — YAGSL, odometry, path planning
+- **Vision processing** — PhotonVision, AprilTags, limelight-style targeting
+- **Robot mechanics** — gearboxes, bumpers, mechanisms
+- **Team coordination** — Git, code review, documentation
+- **Gitea** — Git hosting, code review, CI

+
+## Gap Analysis for Chris
+
+Chris is strong on: coaching, mechanical, electronics
+Chris is weak on:
+- **Java / WPILib** — could go deeper on advanced command-based patterns
+- **Vision processing** — AprilTag + PhotonVision is new territory
+- **Git workflow** — team needs better code review practices
+
+## Recurring Topics
+
+1. **Swerve drive** — YAGSL, odometry, field constants
+2. **Vision targeting** — AprilTags, PhotonVision, pose estimation
+3. **Java programming** — WPILib, command structure
+4. **Team management** — student progress, meeting structure
+5. **Git/DevOps** — Gitea setup, code review workflow
