Features/ia improvements (#243)

* Add documentation and settings for IO.Astrodynamics.Net

Introduced `CLAUDE.md` for comprehensive project documentation, covering overview, structure, build/test commands, and guidelines. Added `settings.local.json` to manage permissions for executing Bash commands in the .NET environment.

* Remove permissions from settings and update documentation

The `settings.local.json` file had the permissions section removed, affecting command execution rights. Additionally, significant content was removed from `CLAUDE.md`, indicating a major revision or simplification of the project's documentation.

* Add CLAUDE.md for project guidance and settings.json

Introduced a new `CLAUDE.md` file detailing the IO.Astrodynamics.Net project, including build commands, architecture, and development guidelines. Also added `settings.local.json` to manage permissions for dotnet commands in a Bash environment.

* Add SGP4 comparison scenario test for TLE data in TLETests.cs

* Enhance TLE accuracy tests and update settings for improved validation

* Add TLE fitting test and improve output logging in TLETests

* Refactor MeanElementsConverter to improve TLE fitting with Equinoctial elements and enhance numerical stability; clamp eccentricity in TLE creation

* Refactor MeanElementsConverter to always use Equinoctial elements for improved numerical stability; remove Keplerian conversion logic

* Update TLETests to relax error tolerances for position and velocity; enhance B* drag term configuration

* Ensure invariant culture for TLE parsing and formatting

Added `CultureInfo.InvariantCulture` to parsing methods to maintain consistent numeric value interpretation across different locales. Updated string formatting for TLE output to prevent cultural discrepancies in generated data.

* Refactor tests to improve precision and consistency; adjust tolerances and expected values in various test cases

* Improve robustness of Vector3.Angle method

Updated the Vector3.Angle method to handle zero vectors and mitigate floating-point precision errors. Added checks for zero magnitudes, clamped dot product to [-1, 1], and ensured numerical stability for edge cases.

+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+IO.Astrodynamics.Net is a .NET 8 astrodynamics framework for orbital mechanics calculations, ephemeris computations, and space mission planning. It consists of:
+
+- **IO.Astrodynamics**: Core framework library with orbital mechanics algorithms
+- **IO.Astrodynamics.CLI**: Command-line interface tool (`astro`) for astrodynamics operations
+- **IO.Astrodynamics.Tests**: Unit tests using xUnit framework
+- **IO.Astrodynamics.CLI.Tests**: CLI tests
+- **IO.Astrodynamics.Performance**: Performance benchmarking using BenchmarkDotNet
+
+## Key Commands
+
+### Build
+```bash
+dotnet build IO.Astrodynamics.sln
+```
+
+### Test
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+dotnet test
+
+# Run specific project tests
+dotnet test IO.Astrodynamics.Tests/IO.Astrodynamics.Tests.csproj
+dotnet test IO.Astrodynamics.CLI.Tests/IO.Astrodynamics.CLI.Tests.csproj
+
+# Run with coverage
+dotnet test --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"
+```
+
+### CLI Tool
+```bash
+# Build and run the CLI
+dotnet run --project IO.Astrodynamics.CLI -- [command]
+
+# Install CLI globally
+dotnet tool install --global --add-source ./IO.Astrodynamics.CLI/bin/Debug IO.Astrodynamics.CLI
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+**Native Interop Layer (IO.Astrodynamics/API.cs)**
+- P/Invoke wrapper around native SPICE toolkit (NASA's CSPICE)
+- Platform-specific libraries: `IO.Astrodynamics.dll` (Windows), `libIO.Astrodynamics.so` (Linux)
+- Thread-safe access through lock synchronization
+
+**Data Provider Pattern**
+- `IDataProvider` interface with implementations:
+  - `SpiceDataProvider`: Default, uses SPICE kernel files
+  - `MemoryDataProvider`: In-memory for testing
+- Configured via `Configuration.Instance.SetDataProvider()`
+
+**Key Namespaces**
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.Body`: Celestial bodies, spacecraft, instruments
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.OrbitalParameters`: State vectors, Keplerian elements, TLE
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.Maneuver`: Lambert solvers, launch windows, maneuver planning
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.Frames`: Reference frames and transformations
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.TimeSystem`: Time frames (UTC, TDB, TAI, etc.)
+- `IO.Astrodynamics.Propagator`: Orbital propagation and integration
+
+**External Dependencies**
+- MathNet.Numerics: Linear algebra operations
+- Cocona: CLI framework (CLI project only)
+- xUnit + BenchmarkDotNet: Testing and benchmarking
+
+### Testing Approach
+
+All test classes load SPICE kernels in constructor:
+```csharp
+API.Instance.LoadKernels(Constants.SolarSystemKernelPath);
+```
+
+Test data files are in `Data/SolarSystem/` and copied to output directory.
+
+## Development Guidelines
+
+1. **Thread Safety**: CSPICE operations are not thread-safe - all API calls must use the shared lock object
+2. **Kernel Management**: Load/unload SPICE kernels appropriately to avoid memory leaks
+3. **Native Resources**: Properly free unmanaged memory returned from native calls
+4. **Time Systems**: Be explicit about time frames when working with epochs
+5. **Coordinate Systems**: Always specify reference frames for state vectors and transformations
+
+## Code Quality Standards
+
+Per CONTRIBUTING.md:
+- OOP, SOLID, and DRY principles required
+- Unit test coverage must exceed 95%
+- Feature branches required before merge
