Documentation

README

CLAUDE.md Review

Audit a CLAUDE.md against the failure modes that actually cost output quality.

Premise: CLAUDE.md loads into context on every single session, so every line is either paying rent or costing you tokens on every turn forever. Most "the model isn't following instructions" problems are instruction problems.

Steps

  1. Read the target file (default ./CLAUDE.md; also check ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and any nested **/CLAUDE.md if the project has them, since the closest one wins).
  2. Score each dimension below and quote the specific lines that fail.
  3. Output the report format at the bottom. Propose concrete rewrites, not "consider being more specific."

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
