FAQPage Schema
How do I create a CLAUDE.md file to bootstrap context for my codebase?

To create a CLAUDE.md file, describe your project and goals, then run the generator to perform WHY/WHAT/HOW analysis and output a lean bootstrap context with structured frontmatter for consistent session onboarding.

What is the best way to keep Claude onboarding instructions lean across sessions?

The best way to keep instructions lean is using progressive disclosure: a concise CLAUDE.md for basics and an agent_docs directory for detailed, task-specific guidance across sessions.

Can I audit an existing CLAUDE.md file for my project?

Yes, you can audit an existing CLAUDE.md by running the writer to evaluate your current project context, refine the WHY/WHAT/HOW structure, and generate improved, universally applicable instructions.

Does the CLAUDE.md generator require any specific dependencies?

No, the CLAUDE.md generator has zero dependencies. You only need to describe your project and goals to generate the bootstrap context and optional agent_docs files.

When do I need to use an agent_docs directory for Claude Code?

You need an agent_docs directory when your project requires deeper, task-specific guidance that exceeds the concise CLAUDE.md basics, ensuring detailed instructions remain accessible across sessions.
