How does path-scoping work in Claude Code?

You can use YAML frontmatter in rule files to specify glob patterns so that specific instructions only load when Claude is working within those defined directories or file types.

What is the difference between CLAUDE.md and .claude/rules/?

CLAUDE.md is a single file ideal for smaller projects, while .claude/rules/ allows for modular, path-scoped markdown files better suited for large or complex repositories.

What are emphasis techniques?

They are strategic formatting patterns and keywords like **CRITICAL**, **NEVER**, and **ALWAYS** used to ensure Claude prioritizes specific rules over built-in instructions.

Can I share rules across multiple projects?

Yes, Claude Code supports symlinks within the .claude/rules/ directory, allowing you to link to shared company standards or personal global rules.

Does project memory affect the context window?

Yes, memory files are loaded at session startup and consume tokens from the 200k context window, typically leaving room for 100-150 custom instruction slots.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Optimizes project memory files and modular rules to enhance Claude Code's context awareness and instruction following.

Acerca de

Meta Claude Memory provides a comprehensive framework for creating and maintaining effective Claude Code memory systems using CLAUDE.md or the modular .claude/rules/ directory. It enables developers to define project-specific coding standards, technical stacks, and path-scoped rules, ensuring the AI operates with high precision while managing token overhead. By implementing the WHAT-WHY-HOW framework and strategic emphasis techniques, teams can standardize AI-assisted workflows across repositories, monorepos, and global user preferences.
