CLAUDE.md Improver
Audit, evaluate, and improve CLAUDE.md files across a codebase to ensure Claude Code has optimal project context.
This skill can write to CLAUDE.md files. After presenting a quality report and getting user approval, it updates CLAUDE.md files with targeted improvements.
Workflow
Phase 1: Discovery
Find all CLAUDE.md files in the repository:
find . -name "CLAUDE.md" -o -name ".claude.md" -o -name ".claude.local.md" 2>/dev/null | head -50
File Types & Locations:
| Type | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Project root | ./CLAUDE.md | Primary project context (checked into git, shared with team) |
| Local overrides | ./.claude.local.md | Personal/local settings (gitignored, not shared) |
| Global defaults | ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | User-wide defaults across all projects |
| Package-specific | ./packages/*/CLAUDE.md | Module-level context in monorepos |
| Subdirectory | Any nested location | Feature/domain-specific context |
Note: Claude auto-discovers CLAUDE.md files in parent directories, making monorepo setups work automatically.
Phase 2: Quality Assessment
For each CLAUDE.md file, evaluate agai…
