MemTensor/MemOS/CLAUDE.md

Project facts live in AGENTS.md. This file only covers Claude Code runtime adaptation. Five project-recommended sub-agents live under .claude/agents/*.md. Claude Code loads them automatically; the main agent should dispatch by task boundary: The main repo has no frontend stack, so no frontend-dev is provided; TypeScript sub-projects under apps/ use their own AI configuration. Before starting a task, run ls docs/. docs/openapi.json is the source of truth for the API contract; after touching src/memos/api/, run make openapi to regenerate it.

claude-skills

Jeffallan/claude-skills/CLAUDE.md

This file governs Claude's behavior when working on the claude-skills repository. Skills follow the Agent Skills specification. This section covers project-specific conventions that go beyond the base spec. Critical: Never put process steps or workflow sequences in descriptions. When descriptions contain step-by-step instructions, agents follow the brief description instead of reading the full skill content. This defeats the purpose of detailed skills. Brief capability statements (what it does) and trigger conditions (when to use it) are both appropriate. Process steps…

geo-seo-claude

zubair-trabzada/geo-seo-claude/CLAUDE.md

A GEO-SEO analysis toolkit distributed as a suite of Claude Code skills + subagents + Python scripts. "GEO" = Generative Engine Optimization — optimizing websites for AI search engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews) rather than only traditional search. Philosophy: GEO-first, SEO-supported. This repo is the source. Users install it into ~/.claude/ (see install), then invoke /geo <command> <url> inside Claude Code. Audits are run from the user's own working directory and deliverables land there — never in…

JetBrains/ideavim/CLAUDE.md

Guidance for Claude Code when working with IdeaVim. Essential commands: - ./gradlew runIde - Start dev IntelliJ with IdeaVim - ./gradlew test -x :tests:property-tests:test -x :tests:long-running-tests:test - Run standard tests Avoid running all tests, this takes too long. It's preferred to run specific test. When running gradle tasks, use --console=plain for cleaner output without progress bars. See CONTRIBUTING.md for architecture details and a complete command list. This project uses YouTrack for issue tracking, NOT GitHub Issues. - Tickets are prefixed…

CLAUDE.md vs AGENTS.md

About CLAUDE.md

What is CLAUDE.md?

A file Claude Code reads at the start of every session. It holds the commands, conventions and warnings the agent needs for this project.

Where does it go?

At the repository root. Claude Code also reads CLAUDE.md files in subdirectories when it works there.

What should it contain?

Build and test commands, the project's layout, conventions that aren't obvious from the code, and mistakes to avoid. Short files tend to work better than long ones.

CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md?

Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md; most other agents read AGENTS.md. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
