How to set up Claude code? I tried to put the prompt in but reckon I’m doing something wrong

Why you still need the .md file: Think of it like this. Auto memory is like a new assistant who slowly figures out how you like things, by watching you for weeks. The .md file is like handing that assistant a one-page brief on day one. If you skip the .md file, here's what happens: 1. Your first few sessions are rough. Claude is guessing about your audience, your voice, your rules. You correct it. It learns. But you've already lost time. 2. Auto memory only catches what Claude notices. It can't know that you say "treat" not "product" unless you correct it. It can't know your immutable rules until you've enforced them ten times. 3. Auto memory is messy. It saves what it thinks is important, not necessarily what you think is important. The .md file is your curated list. You're in charge. 4. Auto memory only applies to one project at a time. If you start a new project, it's back to square one. Your .md file, though, you can copy and tweak as a starting point for the next project. The simple way to think about it: The .md file is what you know matters (your voice, your audience, your immutable rules). Auto memory is what Claude notices matters over time (the small patterns you didn't think to write down). Best results come from using both together. The .md gets you started fast. Auto memory fine-tunes things as you go. 📌
