SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the issue of LLMs selectively ignoring instructions in CLAUDE.md by restructuring the file into context-aware, conditional blocks that only activate when relevant to the current task.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Conditional Instruction Scoping: Wraps rules in XML-based conditional blocks to ensure instructions are only surfaced when needed.
  • Evolution Trigger Integration: Automatically processes recurring feedback and improvement suggestions from session history to refine project rules.
  • Use Case: If your project has complex testing patterns that clutter the context window during routine coding, this skill will move those instructions into a block that only triggers when the AI is actively writing or running tests.

Quick Start

Run the improve-claude-md skill to rewrite your CLAUDE.md file with conditional blocks and process any pending evolution triggers.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix Claude ignoring instructions in my CLAUDE.md file?

Improve LLM instruction adherence by restructuring CLAUDE.md files with conditional XML scoping, wrapping rules in context-aware blocks that only surface when needed. This systematic file transformation targets software development environments to reduce context noise.

What is conditional instruction scoping for LLM project rules?

Conditional instruction scoping wraps project rules in XML-based blocks so they only activate when relevant to the current task. This mechanism prevents complex testing patterns from cluttering the context window during routine coding, reducing context noise.

How do I automate CLAUDE.md refactoring using session history?

Automate CLAUDE.md refactoring by parsing project history databases to extract recurring feedback and improvement suggestions. Integrating these evolution triggers applies rule-based file transformations to systematically refine project rules.

Does optimizing CLAUDE.md require any specific dependencies?

Optimizing CLAUDE.md requires no external dependencies. The process relies on internal scripts and references to parse project history databases and apply systematic rule-based file transformations for instruction tuning.

What's the best way to reduce context noise in LLM coding sessions?

The best way to reduce context noise is moving specialized instructions into conditional XML blocks that trigger only during specific tasks. This optimization prevents irrelevant rules from consuming the context window during routine software development.
