About

CLAUDE.md is the primary way to give Claude Code persistent project context. Place it at the project root to define coding conventions, tech stack details, deployment processes, and project-specific instructions. Claude Code reads it automatically at session start. Supports hierarchical overrides with directory-level CLAUDE.md files and user-level ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md for global preferences.
