I've published the global [CLAUDE.md](https://github.com/HartreeWorks/claude.md) that I use with Claude Code.

The file includes:

* **Safety rules** — `trash` instead of `rm -rf`, restrict repo cloning
* **Filesystem map** — helps Claude find files and project repos outside the current working directory.
* **Output conventions** — British English, sentence case, em dashes, absolute paths
* **Dual-machine setup** — running Claude on a remote Mac Mini via tmux
* **Communication preferences** — "Be direct and intellectually honest", etc.
* **Basic "about me" info** — name, timezone, abbreviations

And some bugfixes:

* **AI model reference** — prevent model ID hallucination, and denials that recent models exist
* **Calendar date verification** — fix [one-day off date errors](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/fix-llm-date-errors)

And, experimentally:

* **MEMORY.md convention** — guidelines for maintaining per-project memory
