Feel little like this is generated and not based on experience. Claude.md should be short. Typescript strict mode isnt a gotcha, itll figure that out on its own easily, imo omit things like that. People put far too much stuff in claude, just a few lines and links to docs is all it needs. You can also @Agents.md and put everything there instead. Dont skills supercede commands? Subagents are good esp if you specify model, forked memory, linked skills, etc. Always ask what you can optimize after you see claude thrashing, then figure out how to encode that (or refactor your scripts or code choices).
Always separate plan from implementation and clear context between, its the build up of context that makes it bad ime.
The intro paragraph sounds exactly like Claude’s phrasing. So much so that I couldn’t read the rest of the article because I assumed I could just ask Claude about the topic.
Exactly this. If there is some nuance in the article vs what Claude can tell you, then that's worthwhile. This article is just generated with a specific prompt on style but very little content editing. What's the point? It's like posting the results of a Google search. The prompt would have been more interesting.
It's not against the rules to post AI slop here, and I don't necessarily think it should be. But I do wonder how we value written content going forward. There's value to taste and style and editing and all the other human things... there's very little value in the actual words themselves. We'll figure it out.

Don't skills sit in context while custom slash commands are only manually invoked?
The difference isn't clear to me, especially since, upon googling it right now, I see that skills can also be invoked with a /slash.
They’re the same thing now except that skills can have some frontmatter to allow the agent to execute them automatically.
