Your Claude Code needs a brain.

I stumbled on this by accident.

Every time you open Claude Code on a project, it starts from zero. It doesn’t remember what you built yesterday. It doesn’t know your font choices, your color palette, your page structure. You have to re-explain everything.

There’s a fix. One prompt, one time.

Create a CLAUDE.md file in the root of this project. Inside it, write down everything you’ve learned about this project so far. Here are examples, but not limited to thisL the folder structure, what each file does, the design choices I made (fonts, colors, layout), my preferences, and what pages or sections exist.

Claude creates a file called CLAUDE.md inside your project folder. It’s a memory file. Claude writes down your preferences, your past decisions, the structure, the style, all of it.

Now close the app. Come back 3 days later. Open the same folder.

Claude reads CLAUDE.md first. It already knows what your website looks like, what fonts you picked, which pages exist, and what your last edits were.

You say, “Add a blog section,” and Claude builds it in the exact same style as everything else. I do this for every project now.

(Developers have been doing this for months. Now you can too.)
