Tip	Source
challenge Claude — "grill me on these changes and don't make a PR until I pass your test." or "prove to me this works" and have Claude diff between main and your branch 🚫👶
after a mediocre fix — "knowing everything you know now, scrap this and implement the elegant solution" 🚫👶
Claude fixes most bugs by itself — paste the bug, say "fix", don't micromanage how 🚫👶

Tip	Source
always start with plan mode
start with a minimal spec or prompt and ask Claude to interview you using AskUserQuestion tool, then make a new session to execute the spec
always make a phase-wise gated plan, with each phase having multiple tests (unit, automation, integration)
break PRDs into vertical slices (tracer bullets) that cross all layers (DB + service + UI) — AI defaults to horizontal phasing (DB phase, then API phase, then frontend phase) which delays end-to-end feedback until the last phase. From the Pragmatic Programmer 🚫👶
spin up a second Claude to review your plan as a staff engineer, or use cross-model for review
write detailed specs and reduce ambiguity before handing work off — the more specific you are, the better the output
prototype > PRD — build 20-30 versions instead of writing specs, the cost of building is low so take many shots

Tip	Source
context rot kicks in around ~300-400k tokens on the 1M context model — don't let sessions drift past that for intelligence-sensitive work
dumb zone kicks in around ~40% context — "you hit this point where you have degrading results". Newcomers: "shoot to keep it under 40%, and if you get up to 60%, think about wrapping it up". Experienced: "aggressively keep it below 30%" — push to 60% only on simple tasks. Manual /compact or /clear to reset when switching tasks
rewind > correct — double-Esc or /rewind back to before the failed attempt and re-prompt with what you learned, instead of leaving failed attempts + corrections polluting context 🚫👶
/compact with a hint (/compact focus on the auth refactor, drop the test debugging) beats letting autocompact fire — the model is at its least intelligent point when auto-compacting due to context rot
use subagents for context management — ask yourself "will I need this tool output again, or just the conclusion?" — 20 file reads + 12 greps + 3 dead ends stay in the child's context, only the final report returns 🚫👶

Tip	Source
every turn is a branching point — after Claude ends a turn, pick between Continue, /rewind, /clear, /compact, or Subagent based on how much existing context you need to carry forward
new task = new session — related tasks (e.g. writing docs for what you just built) can reuse context for efficiency, but genuinely new tasks deserve a fresh session
use "summarize from here" before rewinding to have Claude write a handoff message — like a note to the previous iteration of Claude from its future self
/compact vs /clear — compact is lossy but momentum-friendly (mid-task, fuzzy details ok); /clear + brief is more work but you control exactly what carries forward (high-stakes next step)
use recaps for long-running sessions — short summaries of what Claude did and what's next, useful when returning after minutes or hours. Disable with recaps in /config
/rename important sessions (e.g. [TODO - refactor task]) and /resume them later — label each instance when running multiple Claudes simultaneously

Tip	Source
CLAUDE.md should target under 200 lines per file. 60 lines in humanlayer (still not 100% guaranteed)
.claude/rules/*.md auto-load into every session like CLAUDE.md — add paths: YAML frontmatter to lazy-load them only when Claude touches files matching the glob
wrap domain-specific CLAUDE.md rules in <important if="..."> tags to stop Claude from ignoring them as files grow longer
use multiple CLAUDE.md for monorepos — ancestor + descendant loading
use .claude/rules/ to split large instructions
any developer should be able to launch Claude, say "run the tests" and it works on the first try — if it doesn't, your CLAUDE.md is missing essential setup/build/test commands
keep codebases clean and finish migrations — partially migrated frameworks confuse models that might pick the wrong pattern
use settings.json for harness-enforced behavior (attribution, permissions, model) — don't put "NEVER add Co-Authored-By" in CLAUDE.md when attribution.commit: "" is deterministic

Tip	Source
have feature specific sub-agents (extra context) with skills (progressive disclosure) instead of general qa, backend engineer
say "use subagents" to throw more compute at a problem — offload tasks to keep your main context clean and focused 🚫👶
agent teams with tmux and git worktrees for parallel development
use test time compute — separate context windows make results better; one agent can cause bugs and another (same model) can find them

Tip	Source
use commands for your workflows instead of sub-agents
use slash commands for every "inner loop" workflow you do many times a day — saves repeated prompting, commands live in .claude/commands/ and are checked into git
if you do something more than once a day, turn it into a skill or command — build /techdebt, context-dump, or analytics commands

Tip	Source
use context: fork to run a skill in an isolated subagent — main context only sees the final result, not intermediate tool calls. The agent field lets you set the subagent type
use skills in subfolders for monorepos
skills are folders, not files — use references/, scripts/, examples/ subdirectories for progressive disclosure
build a Gotchas section in every skill — highest-signal content, add Claude's failure points over time
skill description field is a trigger, not a summary — write it for the model ("when should I fire?")
don't state the obvious in skills — focus on what pushes Claude out of its default behavior 🚫👶
don't railroad Claude in skills — give goals and constraints, not prescriptive step-by-step instructions 🚫👶
include scripts and libraries in skills so Claude composes rather than reconstructs boilerplate
embed !command in SKILL.md to inject dynamic shell output into the prompt — Claude runs it on invocation and the model only sees the result

Tip	Source
use on-demand hooks in skills — /careful blocks destructive commands, /freeze blocks edits outside a directory
measure skill usage with a PreToolUse hook to find popular or undertriggering skills
use a PostToolUse hook to auto-format code — Claude generates well-formatted code, the hook handles the last 10% to avoid CI failures
route permission requests to Opus via a hook — let it scan for attacks and auto-approve safe ones 🚫👶
use a Stop hook to nudge Claude to keep going or verify its work at the end of a turn

Tip	Source
use /model to select model and reasoning, /context to see context usage, /usage to check plan limits, /extra-usage to configure overflow billing, /config to configure settings — use Opus for plan mode and Sonnet for code to get the best of both
always use thinking mode true (to see reasoning) and Output Style Explanatory (to see detailed output with ★ Insight boxes) in /config for better understanding of Claude's decisions
use ultrathink keyword in prompts for high effort reasoning
/focus mode hides all intermediate work and shows only the final result — trust the model to run the right commands and just look at the outcome (toggle with /focus)
tune effort level with Opus 4.7's adaptive thinking — low for speed and fewer tokens, max for most intelligence (slider: low · medium · high · xhigh · max)

Tip	Source
keep PRs small and focused — p50 of 118 lines (141 PRs, 45K lines changed in a day), one feature per PR, easier to review and revert
always squash merge PRs — clean linear history, one commit per feature, easy git revert and git bisect
commit often — try to commit at least once per hour, as soon as task is completed, commit
tag @claude on a coworker's PR to auto-generate lint rules for recurring review feedback — automate yourself out of code review 🚫👶
use /code-review for multi-agent PR analysis — catches bugs, security vulnerabilities, and regressions before merge

Tip	Source
make it a habit to take screenshots and share with Claude whenever you are stuck with any issue
use mcp (Claude in Chrome, Playwright, Chrome DevTools) to let claude see chrome console logs on its own
always ask claude to run the terminal (you want to see logs of) as a background task for better debugging
/doctor to diagnose installation, authentication, and configuration issues
use a cross-model for QA — e.g. Codex for plan and implementation review
agentic search (glob + grep) beats RAG — Claude Code tried and discarded vector databases because code drifts out of sync and permissions are complex

Tip	Source
iTerm/Ghostty/tmux terminals instead of IDE (VS Code/Cursor)
/voice or Wispr Flow for voice prompting (10x productivity)
claude-code-hooks for claude feedback
status line for context awareness and fast compacting
explore settings.json features like Plans Directory, Spinner Verbs for a personalized experience

Tip	Source
use ASCII diagrams a lot to understand your architecture
use /loop for local recurring monitoring (up to 7 days) · use /schedule for cloud-based recurring tasks that run even when your machine is off
use Ralph Wiggum plugin for long-running autonomous tasks
/permissions with wildcard syntax (Bash(npm run ), Edit(/docs/*)) instead of dangerously-skip-permissions
/sandbox to reduce permission prompts with file and network isolation — 84% reduction internally
invest in product verification skills (signup-flow-driver, checkout-verifier) — worth spending a week to perfect
use auto mode instead of dangerously-skip-permissions — a model-based classifier decides if each command is safe and auto-approves, pauses and asks if risky. Shift+Tab to cycle Ask → Plan → Auto modes 🚫👶
use /less-permission-prompts skill to scan session history for safe bash/MCP commands that repeatedly prompt, then get a recommended allowlist to paste into settings
build a /go skill that (1) tests end-to-end via bash/browser/computer use (2) runs /simplify (3) puts up a PR — so when you come back, you know the code works 🚫👶
