General

What this skill does


# CLAUDE.md Condensation

Deduplicate and consolidate CLAUDE.md memory files to remove redundancy.

## Workflow

### Phase 1: Discovery

**Find all CLAUDE.md files:**
```bash
python ../reflect/scripts/find_claude_md.py
```

**Read all discovered files and analyze for:**
1. Intra-file duplication (same instruction repeated within a file)
2. Cross-file duplication (same instruction in multiple files)
3. Misplaced instructions (subdirectory files containing project-wide content)

### Phase 2: Analysis

**Intra-file duplication:**
- Identify repeated bullet points or instructions
- Find semantically similar content (different wording, same meaning)

**Cross-file duplication:**
- Root CLAUDE.md should contain project-wide instructions
- Subdirectory CLAUDE.md should only contain directory-specific instructions
- If an instruction appears in both root and subdirectory, keep only in root
- If an instruction in subdirectory applies to whole project, move to root

**Misplaced instructions:**
- Subdirectory file contains instructions that apply project-wide → move to root
- Root file contains instructions only relevant to one directory → move to subdirectory

### Phase 3: Interaction

Present findings using AskUserQuestion with checkboxes.

**For each issue found:**
1. Show the duplicated or misplaced content
2. Identify which files are affected
3. Propose the consolidation (delete, move, or merge)

**Example:**
```
Issue: "Use 2-space indentation" appears in both ./CLAUDE.md and ./src/CLAUDE.md
Proposal: Remove from ./src/CLAUDE.md (already covered by root)
```

Wait for user approval before implementing.

### Phase 4: Implementation

For approved changes:

1. **Remove duplicates** - Delete redundant entries, keeping the most appropriate location
2. **Move misplaced content** - Transfer instructions to correct hierarchy level
3. **Merge similar items** - Combine semantically similar instructions into one

**Hierarchy rules:**
- `./CLAUDE.md` - Project-wide instructions (highest priority)
- `./.claude/rules/*.md` - Topic-specific rules (modular)
- `./subdir/CLAUDE.md` - Only instructions specific to that subdirectory
- `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` - Personal preferences across all projects
- `./CLAUDE.local.md` - Personal project-specific (not shared)

## Resources

Uses shared resources from the reflect skill:
- `../reflect/scripts/find_claude_md.py` - Locate all CLAUDE.md files
- `../reflect/references/memory-locations.md` - Memory hierarchy details
- `../reflect/references/anti-patterns.md` - What to avoid when writing instructions
