Features and hacks

Projects

Knowledge and instructions in one place.

Example: Upload specs once and iterate in chat.

Styles

Response tone and format.

Example: A "technical editor" style versus a "brevity" style.

Artifacts

Side-panel outputs.

Example: Iterate the artifact, not the whole chat.

Long docs

A large context window.

Example: Put key instructions at the top AND the bottom.

CLAUDE.md

The Claude Code convention.

Example: Mirror it for project docs inside Projects.

Tips

A Style per output type

Make a Style for each recurring output, like meeting notes, a spec format, or tweet drafts, so tone stays consistent.

Copy from the Artifact

Use Artifacts for code and docs and copy from the side panel, not the chat markdown, to avoid formatting noise.

A Project per client

Keep a separate Project for each client so their instructions and files never bleed into another engagement.

Ask for assumptions first

Before a long code-generation task, ask Claude to list its assumptions so you can correct course before it commits.

Anchor long inputs

On very long inputs, repeat the key instruction at both the top and the bottom so it is not lost in the middle.

Mirror CLAUDE.md

Borrow the Claude Code CLAUDE.md convention for project docs inside Projects to give consistent, durable context.

Workflow ladder

Beginner

Create a Style so responses match your tone by default.

Intermediate

Set up a Project and upload your specs so you can iterate in chat.

Master

Run a Project per client, a Style per output type, and iterate in Artifacts.

Frequently asked questions

What are Claude Styles for?
Styles set a reusable tone and format. Make one per output type, such as a technical editor voice or a brevity mode, and switch between them per task.
Should I use Projects or a single chat?
Use a Project when you have specs or files to reuse. Upload them once, then iterate in chat without re-pasting context each time.
Why repeat instructions in a long document?
Claude has a large context window, but the middle of a very long input can get less weight. Placing the key instruction at both the top and the bottom keeps it front of mind.
