> Keep your CLAUDE.md lightweight and briefly describe what your repo is for [...] Avoid stating ‘the obvious’ things Claude should know by looking at your file system or your repo.

Most people generate CLAUDE.md with /init at least at first, so it gets filled only with the superficial top level things that Claude already noticed during that first run. By this logic, shouldn't CLAUDE.md contain the exact opposite of what /init currently includes?
