# CLAUDE.md Style Guide <!-- uses: - skill: add-architecture-discovery - skill: add-token-efficiency - mention: add-doc-schemas - mention: add-skill-creator - command: /add.wiki --> Defines content rules for CLAUDE.md files generated by ADD commands (primarily `add.wiki` STEP 6). Source: Anthropic official docs (code.claude.com/docs/en/memory). ## When NOT to Use This skill is **only** for CLAUDE.md files. Do not load when: - Writing or updating any non-CLAUDE.md doc (about.md, plan.md, README.md, hotfix docs) — use `add-doc-schemas` instead - Authoring or editing skill files (`SKILL.md`) — use `add-skill-creator` and `add-token-efficiency` - Updating repository README, web docs, or marketing copy — use `add-saas-copy` or general docs guidance ## Why It Matters CLAUDE.md is injected into every session as a **user message** (not system prompt). Oversized files: - Consume context tokens on every request, leaving less room for actual work - Reduce adherence — more content means less attention per rule - Duplicate content already available in the JIT-loaded project wiki **Official target:** under 200 lines per CLAUDE.md file. ## What Belongs in CLAUDE.md Facts the AI needs in **every session**, not available elsewhere: - Architecture hierarchy and dependency rules - Build/run/test commands - Critical naming conventions (<10 items) - Multi-tenancy critical rule (if applicable) - App entry points - Reference pointer to where detailed patterns live (JIT loading) ## Forma
