context-update

Refactoring large CLAUDE.md files improves context efficiency by breaking oversized sections into concise, loadable units and adding design-doc pointers to reduce context load. This process restructures documentation for faster load times and clearer module-specific guidance.

Creating module-specific CLAUDE.md files is needed when guiding targeted workstreams while preserving global context. This approach maintains consistent frontmatter and fork-safe operations so documentation updates remain scalable and recoverable across modules.

Yes, the context-update workflow supports fork-safe operations by enforcing consistent frontmatter and load-time pointers across forks and modules. This ensures context updates remain scalable and recoverable when applying changes to child CLAUDE.md entries.

The best way to add design doc pointers is by injecting @ syntax references directly into CLAUDE.md files during a context update. This reduces context load by pointing to external design docs rather than embedding large sections inline.

Updating CLAUDE.md context across forks requires enforcing consistent frontmatter and load-time pointers during the refactor process. This ensures that context updates remain scalable and recoverable while applying changes across child CLAUDE.md entries.
