ClaudeCode routinely ignores its own CLAUDE.md file though.
The number of times I have to remind it that it isn’t following and then it hurries to apply formatter and follow my style rules isn’t worth counting anymore.
Putting “don’t tell me I’m absolutely right” in there will just highlight more how much it already ignores that file.
- unshavedyak 1y agoI agree, but you're never going to get an LLM to be perfect, especially when it was trained to behave differently. Eg i mentioned it had, maybe, a 70% success rate for linting and formatting. However it had maybe a 50% success rate at not using emojis. For some reason, claude loves to use emojis in its output. That isn't the point though. The parent asked if claude code had something similar to the system prompt they mentioned. It does, it's memory. Actually i believe it has that and a system prompt heh. But yea, aside from that you're never going to get perfection from an LLM. Don't even try, imo. Use deterministic wrappers where possible. Eg i don't have an emoji problem anymore, Claude never prints emojis now. Why? Because i use a hook which prevents it from writing emojis.
