> Do I need 3+ md files in every directory?

Don’t worry, as of about 6 weeks ago when they changed the system prompt Claude will make sure every folder has way more than 3 .md files seen as it often writes 2 or more per task so if you don’t clean them up…



Strange. I haven’t experienced this a single time and I use it almost all day everyday.


That is strange because it's been going on since sonnet 4.5 release.


I wonder if it's because I have instructions for Claude to add comment blocks with explanations of behavior, etc that it can self reference in future. I guess that is filling the role that these .md files would.


I also have seen this happen since then, but I actually like it. The .md files never make it into a commit, but they are quite handy for PR drafts.
