There's a bunch of stuff I include, depending on the project. Some general ones are commenting style and coding standards. In theory it should be able to do it without that by looking at the repo style, but I haven't found that to be the case (especially with overly verbose/repetitive comments).

A specific example in another project is the testing/verification procedure. It's a wasm/WebGPU and the test harness is fairly complex. There are scripts to handle it, but by default Claude will churn for a while to figure it out and sometimes just give up. It definitely saves a lot of tokens/speeds things up.
