Empty Claude Settings Workflow

Delete: The folder system. Even when I prompt 'don't check my folders,' Claude still checked & got the context that I did not want it to get. Delete: The about-me file. Turn the .md file into a skill. It's the same context, but now you manually invoke it (when necessary). Delete: Global instructions. Do not give 'AI more context.' Too much context restricts Claude to think creatively. Delete: Every setting I could switch off. The whole menu, off. Only Connectors stay on, but the specific ones (Gmail & Granola connectors are the ones I use heavily). Delete: The same prompt templates. Turn your prompt library into a skill. Type /skill-creator in the prompt box, or type 'make it a skill' in any old chat. Keep: Claude Skills. A '/' command. My about-me file and all the other md files are saved as Claude skills- invoked only when needed. Rule: write the same prompt twice? Make it a skill. Keep: Projects. One per client or repeated task or rep. Every chat inside remembers everything - the emails, past campaigns. Nothing leaks into the rest of your future chats. That's pretty much it. Do not overcomplicate it.
