Do you have any proof that AI written instructions are better than human ones? I don't see why an AI would have an innate understanding on how best to prompt it

- michaelbuckbee 11mo agoGenerally speaking it has a lot of information from things like OP's blog post on how best to structure the file and prompt itself and you can also (from within Claude Code) ask it to look at posts or Anthropic prompting best practices and adopt those to your own file.
- astrostl 11mo agoHaving been through cycles of manual writing with '#' and having it do it itself, it seems to have been a push on efficacy while spending less effort and getting less frustrated. Hard to quantify except to say that I've had great results with it. I appreciate the spirit of OP's, "CLAUDE.md is the highest leverage point of the harness, so avoid auto-generating it" but you can always ask Claude to tighten it up itself too.
