@chase_ai_: 1. CLAUDE.md is your secret weapon Run /init to generate a file that gives Claude persistent memory of your project — your stack, coding style, build commands, everything. No more re-explaining your setup every session. 2. Custom slash commands save hours Create a .claude/commands/ folder and drop in markdown files. Each one becomes a reusable one-word command like /review or /deploy. Turn your most repeated prompts into instant workflows. 3. Use /clear between every task Old conversation history eats your tokens and makes Claude dumber. Every time you switch to a new task, hit /clear. Fresh context = dramatically better output. 4. Skills take slash commands to the next level Create SKILL.md files in .claude/skills/ with detailed instructions and Claude can auto-invoke them when the task matches. Think of them as SOPs for AI — write once, reuse forever. 5. Run multiple instances in parallel Open separate terminal panes each running their own Claude Code session. One handles frontend, another does backend, another writes tests — all at the same time. Use git worktrees to avoid conflicts.
