Project memory generator

Create CLAUDE.md files that transfer institutional knowledge, not obvious information. Think like a senior journalist onboarding a competent colleague — you don't explain how journalism works, you explain YOUR project's quirks.

CLAUDE.md is advisory, not enforced

Anthropic is explicit on this point: CLAUDE.md content is delivered as a user message after the system prompt. Claude reads it and tries to follow it, but there's no guarantee of strict compliance — especially with vague or conflicting instructions. Source: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/memory

This affects how you write a CLAUDE.md and what you put elsewhere:

MechanismUse forSource-of-truth
CLAUDE.mdStanding facts, conventions, "always do X" rulesAdvisory
SkillsMulti-step procedures, on-demand workflowsLoaded when invoked
HooksActions that must happen every time, no exceptionsDeterministic — runs as a shell command (e.g., hooks/one-way-door-check.md) or as a prompt the harness enforces (e.g., hooks/enforce-test-first.md)
