On: Getting good results from Claude Code

[yahoozoo]

What kind of things would be good to put in the CLAUDE.md?

In my experience as an early adopter of both Cursor and CC, nothing. I don't have a CLAUDE.md.

My expectations have shifted from "magic black box" to "fancy autocomplete". i.e. CC is for me an autocomplete for specific intents, in small steps, prompted in specific terms. I do the thinking.

I do put effort in crafting good context though.

(Don’t listen to this advice. The agent markdown is a valuable part of context engineering)

It gets routinely ignored. Been there done that.

It’s context like any other means of injecting context. All context gets ignored
