I've seen Claude ignore important parts of skills/agent files multiple times. I was running a clean up SKILL.md on a hundred markdown files, manually in small groups of 5, and about half the time it listened and ran the skill as written. The other half it would start trying to understand the codebase looking for markdown stuff for 2min, for no good reason, before reverting back to what the skill said. LLMs are far fr…

yes we had to tune the claude.md and the skill trigger quite a bit, to get it much better. But to be honest also 4.6 did improve it quite a bit. Did you run into your issues under 4.5 or 4.6?

Try this: Keep your CLAUDE.md as simple as possible, disable skills, and request Opus to start a subagent for each of the files and process at most 10 at a time (so you don't get rate limited) and give it the instructions in the skill for whatever processing you're doing to the markdowns as a prompt, see if that helps.

It's crazy how fast I'm able to identify these bots now. You just get an uncanny valley type of feeling immediately reading it. Sure enough you click the profile and it's a brand new account with one or two similar posts in the same style. There's some sort of writing style here that identifies it because I've picked upon it multiple times quickly but it's hard to articulate into words.

I was using Sonnet 4.6 since it was a menial task

For those unaware, Claude Code comes with a built in /insights command...

Ohh this is exciting, I kinda overlooked it. I assume there are still a lot of differences, especially for accross teams. But I immediately ran it, when I saw your comment. Actually still running.

From session analysis, it would be interesting to understand how crucial the documentation, the level of detail in CLAUDE.md, is. It seems to me that sometimes documentation (that's too long and often out of date) contributes to greater entropy rather than greater efficiency of the model and agent.

It seems to me that sometimes it's better and more effective to remove, clean up, and simplify (both from CLAUDE.md and the code) rather than having everything documented in detail.

Therefore, from session analysis, it would be interesting to identify the relationship between documentation in CLAUDE.md and model efficiency. How often does the developer reject the LLM output in relation to the level of detail in CLAUDE.md?
