SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a structured reference for Claude Code memories, detailing where memories live (enterprise policy, project memory, project rules, user memory, local project memory), how CLAUDE.md is used, and how to import and organize memories.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hierarchical memory locations: enterprise policy, project memory, personal memory, and local project memory.
  • CLAUDE.md imports and modular rules: guidance on imports, memory references, and sharing configurations.
  • Organizational guidelines and best practices: symlinks, memory loading order, and memory management strategies for teams.

Quick Start

Create a CLAUDE.md at the project root with basic memory guidelines for the team.

FAQPage Schema
How does Claude Code memory management work across different levels?▼

Claude Code memory management is organized hierarchically across enterprise policy, project memory, project rules, user memory, and local project memory to ensure predictable behavior for team-wide standards and personal preferences.

What is the best way to set up CLAUDE.md for a project team?▼

To set up CLAUDE.md, create the file at the project root with basic memory guidelines for the team. Use frontmatter and follow memory loading order requirements to configure project-specific guidelines properly.

Can I use memory imports and symlinks to share Claude rules across projects?▼

Yes, memory imports and symlinks allow sharing configurations across projects. You can use modular rules and memory references in CLAUDE.md to distribute team-wide standards and organize memory hierarchically.

Do I need specific file locations and frontmatter for Claude memory rules?▼

Yes, predictable Claude behavior requires specific file locations and frontmatter. Use CLAUDE.md and .claude/rules directories to document memory loading order and ensure proper configuration for project and user memories.

What is the memory loading order for Claude Code configurations?▼

The memory loading order follows the memory hierarchy from enterprise policy down to project memory, project rules, user memory, and local project memory, ensuring predictable behavior when applying team-wide standards and personal preferences.
