Honest question. I’ve rewritten mine three times now. First version was 400 lines and Claude basically ignored half of it. Read somewhere that instruction-following quality drops as you add more instructions, which is basically in line with what I was seeing. Second version I cut to 150 lines but then Claude kept asking me basic stuff about my project that I thought I’d covered. Third version I started putting things in skills instead of CLAUDE.md and it actually got better, but now I’m not sure what belongs where. For you who feel like your setup is dialed in, how long did it take to get there? And do you still find yourself tweaking it regularly? SEND HELP. submitted by /u/junianwoo
