Claude Code Tips

Practical tips to get more out of Claude Code — from first setup to advanced automation.

1

CLAUDE.md is your secret weapon

Setup

Drop a CLAUDE.md in your project root with your stack, conventions, and rules. Claude reads it automatically every session.

2

Use /init to bootstrap

Setup

Auto-generates a CLAUDE.md by analyzing your codebase. Great starting point.

3

Reference files with @

Workflow

Type @ to pull specific files into context instead of hoping Claude finds them.

4

Plan before you build

Workflow

Hit Shift+Tab to toggle plan mode. Claude explores first, proposes an approach, you approve before any code gets written.

5

/compact saves your session

Workflow

Running low on context in a long session? /compact summarizes the conversation and frees up space.

6

Let Claude commit for you

Workflow

It understands your git state. Say "commit these changes" and it stages, writes a message matching your repo style, and commits.

7

Headless mode for automation

Automation

claude -p "your prompt" runs without interaction. Great for CI/CD, scripts, and batch operations.
