How it works.

  1. 01

    Start

    It says in two lines what will happen: fifteen short questions in four rounds, then three ready versions. Skip anything you like. Do not share passwords, ID or card numbers, health details or anything about other people you would not put in writing. Whatever is in your first message counts as already answered.

  2. 02

    The interview

    One question per message, each with two or three short example answers so it is easy to reply. You can say skip, ask to go faster (the rest of the round comes in one message) or say enough. A vague answer gets one short follow up, and if it stays vague that rule is left out.

    • 01Round 1, you and your workYour role, who the work is for, what you use Claude for and what you are already good at.
    • 02Round 2, how you like answersDefault length, tone, format, language and spelling.
    • 03Round 3, what annoys youHabits you dislike, unclear requests, disagreement and uncertain facts.
    • 04Round 4, what you work on nowYour current goal, anything recurring and one thing to always or never do.
  3. 03

    Three versions

    Your answers become imperative, specific instructions, never a copy of the answers. Only what you said goes in, a missing detail becomes [ADD: ...], and anything sensitive is left out even if you shared it.

    A: Personal preferencesB: Project instructionsC: CLAUDE.md

  4. 04

    See the difference

    Two or three sample requests from your own tasks, each answered as a default chat and again following your instructions, with one line naming the answers that caused the change. Both versions are written by Claude in this chat to illustrate the instructions, not recordings of other chats.

  5. 05

    Adjust

    You say what is too strict, too loose or missing, and only the blocks that changed are shown again. It ends with one tip: update block B and the current work section when your project changes.

What you get back.

Three blocks of instructions and a comparison on your own tasks. This is the shape they come in.

Instructions you control.

Only what you said goes in. It never adds a preference, fact, tool or goal you did not give, and a missing detail becomes a placeholder. It never asks for passwords, card numbers, ID numbers, health details or private details about other people, and if you share any it tells you to delete them and keeps them out of every block.

[ADD: your current project]

Written instructions make every new chat start out knowing how you work. Claude.ai also has memory features, and these instructions are the part you write and control. It is not for system prompts for a product or chatbot, team policies or storing passwords and private data.

Install.

Claude Code

  1. 1Download the zip and unzip it.
  2. 2Put the know-me folder in ~/.claude/skills/ for every project, or in .claude/skills/ inside one project.
  3. 3Say "set up my Claude" or type /know-me.
  4. 4Save block C as ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md for every project, or as CLAUDE.md in a repo for that project only.
unzip ~/Downloads/know-me.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/

It asks one question at a time and writes the three versions at the end.

Claude.ai

  1. 1Download the zip. Keep it zipped. Code execution must be on (Settings › Capabilities).
  2. 2Go to Customize › Skills, click +, then upload the zip.
  3. 3Say "set up my Claude" and answer the questions.
  4. 4Paste block A into the personal preferences field of your profile in Settings, and block B into a Project's instructions.

Block A applies to every chat, Projects included, so block B only holds what is specific to the work.

Tell it once.

A new chat only knows how you work if something tells it. Update block B when your project changes.
