# Authoring CLAUDE.md Project Instructions
CLAUDE.md is a Markdown file that provides Claude with project-specific context, workflows, standards, and guidance. It acts as a living document for AI collaboration patterns.
## CLAUDE.md File Location & Purpose
**Location**: `./{PROJECT_ROOT}/CLAUDE.md` or `/~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` (personal)
**Purpose**: Tell Claude about your project before every session starts.
## Core Sections
### Section 1: Project Overview
```markdown
# Project Name
**Description**: What does this project do?
**Repository**: GitHub URL
**Tech Stack**: Technologies, languages, frameworks
**Team**: Size, roles
**Status**: Active, archived, experimental
```
### Section 2: Core Workflow
```markdown
## Development Workflow
### Phase 1: Planning
- Use `/alfred:1-plan` for SPEC creation
- EARS syntax: Ubiquitous, Event-driven, State-driven, Optional, Constraints
- Store in `.moai/specs/`
### Phase 2: Implementation (TDD)
- RED: Write failing tests
- GREEN: Minimal implementation
- REFACTOR: Improve quality
- Tools: pytest, TypeScript, mypy, ruff
### Phase 3: Sync & Documentation
- Run `/alfred:3-sync` to validate
- Update Living Documents
- Verify @TAG chains
- Prepare PR
```
### Section 3: Code Standards
```markdown
## Code Standards (TRUST 5 Principles)
### T - Test First
- Target coverage: ≥ 85%
- Framework: pytest for Python, Jest for TypeScript
- Pattern: TDD (RED → GREEN → REFACTOR)
### R - Readable
- Max file: 300 LOC
- Max function: 50 LOC
- Max params: 5
- Use linters: ruff (Python), ESLint (TypeScript)
### U - Unified
- Type safety: mypy for Python, TypeScript strict mode
- Consistent patterns across domain
- Shared utilities in `src/core/`
### S - Secured
- Input validation everywhere
- No hardcoded secrets
- Use environment variables
- Run: bandit (Python), npm audit
### T - Trackable
- @TAG system: @SPEC:ID, @TEST:ID, @CODE:ID, @DOC:ID
- Document all changes in HISTORY section
- Link code to SPEC requirements
```
### Section 4: Project Architecture
```markdown
## Architecture
### Directory Structure
```
src/
├── core/ # Shared utilities, domain models
├── domain/ # Business logic, DOMAIN-specific
├── interfaces/ # API endpoints, CLI commands
├── middleware/ # Cross-cutting concerns
└── infra/ # Database, external services
tests/
├── unit/ # Unit tests for core/ and domain/
├── integration/ # API, database tests
└── e2e/ # End-to-end workflows
```
### Key Design Decisions
- Monolithic backend (for now)
- Database: PostgreSQL with migrations
- Authentication: JWT tokens
- API: REST with OpenAPI docs
```
### Section 5: AI Collaboration Patterns
```markdown
## Working with Claude Code
### When to Use Sub-agents
- `debug-helper`: Errors, test failures, exceptions
- `security-auditor`: Vulnerability assessment, OWASP checks
- `architect`: Refactoring, system design, scalability
- `code-reviewer`: Quality analysis, SOLID violations
### Commands Available
- `/alfred:1-plan "feature description"` — Create SPEC
- `/alfred:2-run SPEC-ID` — Implement (TDD)
- `/alfred:3-sync` — Sync docs and validate
- `/review-code src/**/*.ts` — Code review
- `/deploy [env]` — Deploy pipeline
### Context Engineering Tips
- Always mention relevant SPEC ID
- Provide file paths relative to project root
- Link to similar existing features
- Mention constraints or non-negotiables upfront
```
### Section 6: Known Gotchas & Decisions
```markdown
## Important Notes
### Why We Use SPEC-First
- Clarifies requirements upfront
- Prevents scope creep
- Enables parallel work (different SPECs)
- Makes code changes traceable
### Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ❌ Implementing without SPEC
- ❌ Skipping tests for "quick" fixes
- ❌ Mixing multiple features in one PR
- ❌ Ignoring @TAG system
### Team Decisions
- Use pytest fixtures for mocking (not monkeypatch)
- All API responses must include status codes
- Database migrations are CI/CD blocking
- Security audit runs on every PR
```
## CLAUDE.md Examples by Domain
### Example 1: Web API Project
```markdown
# Transaction API
**Tech Stack**: Python (FastAPI), PostgreSQL, pytest
## Phase Workflow
1. **SPEC**: Requirements in EARS syntax
- Example: `The API must validate transaction amounts > 0`
- Stored in: `.moai/specs/SPEC-TRANS-{###}/spec.md`
2. **TDD**: Implement with test-first approach
- Tests: `tests/integration/test_transactions.py`
- Code: `src/domain/transaction.py`
3. **Sync**: Verify completeness
- Run: `/alfred:3-sync`
- Check: TAG chain integrity
```
### Example 2: React Frontend Project
```markdown
# Competition Dashboard
**Tech Stack**: TypeScript, React 19, Vitest, Tailwind
## Development Standards
- Framework: Next.js 15 (App Router)
- Testing: Vitest + React Testing Library
- Styling: Tailwind CSS with shadcn/ui
- State: Zustand for client state, Server Components for data
## Key Patterns
- Server Components for data fetching
- Suspense boundaries for loading states
- Error boundaries for graceful failures
```
## High-Freedom: Architectural Decisions
```markdown
## Why This Architecture?
### Monolith vs Microservices
- **Chosen**: Monolithic backend
- **Reason**: Team < 10, throughput manageable
- **When to reconsider**: >10M requests/month or 3+ teams
### Database: PostgreSQL
- **Reason**: Strong ACID guarantees, mature ecosystem
- **Alternatives considered**: MongoDB (rejected: unclear schema)
```
## Medium-Freedom: Workflow Definition
```markdown
## Code Review Checklist
Before merging, reviewer must verify:
1. [ ] SPEC ID linked in PR description
2. [ ] All tests passing (>85% coverage)
3. [ ] No security issues (bandit clean)
4. [ ] Code follows TRUST 5 principles
5. [ ] @TAG chain complete (@SPEC → @TEST → @CODE → @DOC)
6. [ ] CHANGELOG updated
```
## Low-Freedom: Explicit Rules
```markdown
## Non-negotiable Rules
- ❌ No commits without @TAG references
- ❌ No merging PRs without passing tests
- ❌ No pushing secrets to repo
- ❌ No force-pushing to main/master
- ✅ All features must have SPEC document
- ✅ All code changes must have corresponding tests
- ✅ All SPECs must use EARS syntax
```
## Validation Checklist
- [ ] Project name and description clear
- [ ] Tech stack documented
- [ ] Development workflow defined (Plan → Run → Sync)
- [ ] TRUST 5 principles explained
- [ ] Architecture diagram or structure described
- [ ] AI collaboration patterns defined
- [ ] Known gotchas documented
- [ ] Examples provided for key workflows
## Best Practices
✅ **DO**:
- Keep CLAUDE.md up-to-date as standards evolve
- Include real examples (links to actual files/PRs)
- Document why (not just what)
- Link to external docs (architecture decisions, security policy)
- Review with team before finalizing
❌ **DON'T**:
- Explain general programming concepts (Claude already knows)
- List every possible workflow (focus on your specific patterns)
- Write as instruction to humans (write as guidance to Claude)
- Update CLAUDE.md only at project start (evolve as needed)
