Hey, fwiw I'm almost certainly not using Claude in the best possible way - I have a 'pro' (as in the ~$20 a month plan) and I just prompt. But in the 'Settings' section there's a bit that says: "What personal preferences should Claude consider in responses?" - I add stuff in there.

Ah thats interesting. I only use Claude Code right now and don't have anything in that section you mention. Wonder how/when its applied and if it is also applied to CC...
With Claude code you can have a personal, project (shared) and project local set of memory files.

I would put the bits about clarifying questions in your personal (machine level) claude.MD file so it applies across projects.

I use claude.ai too and it is fine for me, even though I do the copy-pasting, or uploading.
