How to Structure CLAUDE.md?

To write an effective CLAUDE.md, you should treat it as a concise, persistent "source of truth" that provides Claude with the project-specific context it cannot infer from the code alone. The file should be kept short and human-readable, focusing on non-obvious information like unique bash commands for building and testing, repository-specific code styles, and architectural decisions.
