Claude Code Config Manager FAQs

Question 1

Does it support CLAUDE.md files?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. It includes patterns for organizing CLAUDE.md, using @path imports to keep files concise, and managing modular rules within the .claude/rules/ directory.

Question 2

How does this skill help with permissions?

Accepted Answer

It provides a framework to audit global permissions first, ensuring you only add project-specific rules to .claude/settings.json, which avoids redundancy and maintains consistent security.

Question 3

What is the difference between global and project configuration in Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

Global configuration (~/.claude) applies to all your projects and contains personal preferences, while project configuration (.claude/) is specific to a repository and can be shared with team members via version control.

Question 4

What are the configuration inventory scripts for?

Accepted Answer

The inventory scripts scan your local directories to find configuration overlaps, helping you identify project-level skills or settings that should be promoted to global or removed to reduce noise.

Question 5

Can I use this to manage MCP servers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it guides you on whether an MCP server should be global (like a personal productivity tool) or project-specific (like a local database explorer) and helps configure the respective JSON files correctly.
