Try to keep it under 1k tokens or so. We will show you a warning if it might be too big.

Ours is maybe half that size. We remove from it with every model release since smarter models need less hand-holding.

You can also break up your CLAUDE.md into smaller files, link CLAUDE.mds, or lazy load them only when Claude works in nested dirs.
