Add a Build.md, Task.md, and PageList.md file

I’ve noticed a dramatic increase in productivity and accuracy in building with Claude 3.7 since doing this.

Each request reference these files.

The build.md should be the overall plan for the build, include details for your tech stack. The task.md is a running file you should update with bugs/things to build. The Page list is a list of each page with what it does.

Also, under rules tell it what you should be coding in, that your an expert in these languages and act as a senior developer with guidance on how things should be structured. Also tell it to update the md files after every request and to push to git once finished.

Hope this helps.

Yes, I find Claude is very smart and prolific, but not very organised, very easily can get cluttered and messy, and lose the bigger picture. So they need to be told to be tidy, e.g. updates files like these to keep focused.

I don’t think it would be useful telling it act as a senior developer. Settings roles, has this ever done anything? Maybe in their system prompt they already do this
