I setup the initial project to get claude started in a structure I like and there are some shared libs that I had written before AI lol

The constraints were built up over time as we did the project; claude.md also got pruned several times to move things around so it references other files as claude finds it needs that information

yea, I am looking into how I can maybe fine tune a model for a more data-oriented world view

mine kept growing until I'm pretty sure claude was just skipping half of it. ended up doing the same... moved verbose stuff into separate files and only kept the absolute hard rules in claude.md. rules it cant grep its way around.

on the fine tune... I feel like the gain probably isnt worth the maintenance vs just adding another constraint to the prompt. did you find concrete cases where prompting just couldnt get you there?
