Feel free to laugh or mock me for not knowing how to create one. The truth is, it’s just not clear to me. Is it a single .md file? Is it multiple .md files, or what? I honestly don’t get it.
I also understand there’s a difference between an agent and a sub-agent… but I’m still not sure. Do I need to activate a specific function in Claude Code? Or how does it work?
For context, I have a project already underway. It’s currently in the deep analysis phase—specifically, requirements engineering. I have several folders in /docs, each with its own README.md and the necessary .md files (covering the analysis engineering).
Anyway, I’m also unclear on the purpose of Claude.md (I mean, why would I need it when my /docs folder—and a subfolder within it—already contains the necessary engineering: the foundations, structures, and principles required to carry out the project)?
Thanks in advance. Please forgive my ignorance.
