Bootstrap: Default Workflow scaffold

Repo created for a reference/review of the iTelescope.net remote telescope
network. This commit copies the Default Workflow in (CLAUDE.md and docs/ from
the Default-Workflow repo), adds a .gitignore (secrets and scratch), and fills
in state/PROJECT.md with the objective: review every telescope on the network
and provide a choosing guide, using only public sources (support article and
the maintained Google Sheet; the go.itelescope.net launchpad is login-only).

# Project: itelescope
> The anchor document. A session that reads only this, TODO.md and DECISIONS.md should
> understand what the project is and what to do next. Keep it current.
## Objective
A reference and review of the iTelescope.net remote telescope network: what each
telescope is, what it is good at, and which one to book for a given kind of target.
## Scope
- In scope: reviews and spec tables for every telescope on the iTelescope network,
grouped by observatory; source data snapshots; guidance on choosing a scope.
- Out of scope: automating bookings, image processing, anything requiring the
iTelescope login (the launchpad at go.itelescope.net is authenticated).
## Audience
Laurence, when planning imaging or photometry runs on iTelescope, and anyone else
choosing a telescope on the network.
## Description
iTelescope.net operates remote telescopes across six observatories (Utah, Sierra
California, Siding Spring Australia, Deep Sky Chile, AstroCamp Spain, e-EyE Spain).
Public specs are scattered across a Freshdesk support article and a maintained Google
Sheet. This repo snapshots that data and turns it into a usable review: per-telescope
assessments plus a "which scope for what" guide.
## Success criteria
- Every active telescope on the network has an entry with specs and an assessment.
- A reader can pick the right scope for widefield, deep space, galaxies, photometry,
or free imaging without visiting the source pages.
## Key facts
- Trunk branch: main
- Forge / remote: https://git.discworld.casa/laurence/itelescope
- Runtime / stack: markdown only; source data in data/ as CSV
- How to run it: nothing to run; read TELESCOPES.md
