   If you want to work with claude I highly recommend to add a `CLAUDE.md` and 
maybe even rules which explain the structure of the project, how to test, what 
to avoid, coding rules, etc. Maybe even hooks and skills. However keep it as 
short as possible, with clear statements.
   
   > I've been playing with Claude and it works out our repos fine. Our files 
are laid out pretty logically. Let's not add the extra overhead of maintaining 
the Claude.md. It looks pretty similar to our Contributing.md anyway.
   
   The problem with that is if you do not define `CLAUDE.md` and let claude 
figure everything out itself you waste a lot of tokens in your context window 
for _every session_ just for doing that. Its much better to provide claude as 
much information beforehand. This will give you much better results as well and 
avoid to run out of token before claude needs to compact the context and maybe 
loose information and claude takes the wrong turn and actually does not do what 
you wanted it to.
