- Writing a good CLAUDE.md:
A few good tips here around what not to put in claude.md
- Claude can follow 150 - 200 instructions reasonably well
- The root claude.md can contain pointers to other docs that are read on
demand. (/agent_docs) Include an instruction telling claude.ai to read any
it thinks are relevant
- Don’t use claude.ai for linting. There are lots of tools that do that
already cheaply and fast …
- Claude.ai will already read local claude.md files so that’s something to
keep in mind as well (But we’re living in a monorepo where claude.md files
may apply to multiple project subfolders)
