- ako 1y agoI've added these instructions in CLAUDE.md and .windsurfrules, and yes sometimes you have to remind it, but overall it works quite well.
- MrGreenTea 1y agoHabe you though about adding a Session start hook that reads this file and adds it to the context?
- ako 1y agoNot yet, but that sounds like a good suggestion.
- radarsat1 1y agoSounds like a job for a symlink
- troupo 1y ago> it has to be in CLAUDE.md or it'll quickly forget about the contents And then it will promptly forget about CLAUDE.md as well (happened to me on several occasions)
- adastra22 1y agoCLAUDE.md is placed in front of the first input for your session, right after the system prompt. That’s all. It’s not given any more weight than the rest of the context, and idk what compacting the conversation does to it.
