Claude Code

Your team uses Claude Code across several repositories. You want team rules and general coding standards to apply to every repository, while other rules should apply only to particular repositories. The team currently duplicates instructions in each repository’s CLAUDE.md file. How would you handle this?

Explanation

Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md files hierarchically, allowing broadly scoped instructions to provide shared standards and repository-local files to add project-specific rules. This centralizes common guidance without losing repository-specific context.
