Claude, after a very long work session where it struggled to solve a problem and I pointed out that I find it telling me errors and warnings can be ignored unacceptable, then stored this in its memory.md: When encountering any error or warning: Investigate immediately — don’t defer Trace the full impact chain (what downstream behavior does this affect?) Fix it before moving on, even if it seems unrelated to the current task If a fix requires significant work, explain the full impact to the user and get a decision — don’t unilaterally dismiss it The user practices 5S (Sort, Set in order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain) — a clean workspace reveals problems. Every ignored warning is a tool left on the floor. Edit: We eventually solved the problem, and it turned out to be warnings and errors that it was attempting to get me to ignore that were the root cause. Hence, the memory update. submitted by /u/almostsweet
