No plugins, no MCP servers, no configuration — just markdown files in the right places. --- The 3-Level Hierarchy Claude Code reads instructions from three locations. Each has a different scope: Global = rules you'd repeat across every project (\"always run tests,\" \"prefer simple code\"). Project = context your whole team benefits from (stack, structure, commands, conventions). Local = stuff only you need (your terminal, your MCP servers, your editor quirks). Quick Start 1. Create your global file ( 2 min) Edit it with your personal preferences. Keep it under 15 lines. 2. Create your project file ( 3 min) Fill in the blanks. Commit it to git so your team gets the same behavior. 3. Create your local overrides ( 1 min) Add your personal setup. This file lives at the project root (not inside .claude/ ) and is never shared. 4. Add rules for your codebase ( 2 min, optional) Rules are modular instruction files. Path-scoped rules only load when Claude works with matching files. See principles.md for when and why to use rules vs CLAUDE.md. Your final setup should look like this: How It Works Claude Code automatically reads these files at the start of every session. All discovered files are concatenated into context — they don't override each other. When instructions conflict, Claude sees the last one it read. Within each directory, CLAUDE.local.md loads after CLAUDE.md , so your personal notes get the final word","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/abhishekray07","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/abhishekray07/claude-md-templates/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
