FAQPage Schema
How do I refresh my AI assistant's context after updating project files?

Reload context refreshes the AI's understanding by reloading user memory, project memory (CLAUDE.md), and README content. After updating these files, use this Skill to ensure the assistant has the latest information before asking complex questions.

What files does context reload pull from?

Context reload reads ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md for global user memory, CLAUDE.md or .claude/CLAUDE.md in your project directory for project-specific memory, and README.md in the project root, displaying all consolidated information in a labeled Markdown block.

When should I reload context in my project workflow?

Reload context after making significant changes to your README.md or CLAUDE.md files, after clearing project history, or before initiating new complex tasks to prevent the AI from using outdated information.

Does context reload modify any project files?

No, context reload is read-only. It retrieves and displays current information from memory and documentation files without performing any edits or writes to your project.

Can I use context reload without a project CLAUDE.md file?

Yes, context reload works with partial setup. It reads available files in priority order—user memory, project memory if present, and README—and consolidates whatever is found into the refreshed context display.
