CLAUDE.MD

Karpathy CLAUDE.md skills went viral as coding-agent rules. Treat them as a menu: turn the four principles into repo-specific operating constraints.

Move from Cursor to Claude Code step by step: install, turn .cursor/rules into CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md, port MCP servers and skills, and compare plan costs.

Persistent project instructions loaded every session; supports nested dirs.

View and edit auto-memory and CLAUDE.md via the /memory command.

Fire when settings or CLAUDE.md files change during a session.

CLAUDE.md is the highest-leverage file in any Claude Code project. Here's what goes in one, what doesn't, and the patterns that actually ship.

Context engineering is designing the persistent context around every AI interaction: CLAUDE.md files, system prompts, skill libraries and memory systems.

Install Claude Code, configure your first project with CLAUDE.md, learn the essential commands and workflows, and start shipping code in under 5 minutes.

Install the dd CLI and scaffold your first AI-powered app in under a minute: Next.js 16, Convex, Clerk, Autumn, Tailwind v4 and an agent-ready CLAUDE.md.

Configure Claude Code for maximum productivity -- CLAUDE.md, sub-agents, MCP servers, and autonomous workflows.
