Create an effective CLAUDE.md file that provides project-specific instructions to AI coding assistants. Covers structure, common sections, do/don't patterns, and integration with MCP servers and agent definitions. Use when starting a new project where AI assistants will be used, improving AI behavior on an existing project, documenting project conventions and constraints, or integrating MCP servers or agent definitions into a project workflow.

# 書 CLAUDE.md
立 CLAUDE.md 予 AI 助手有效案境。
## 用
- 始用 AI 助手之新案→用
- 改現案 AI 為→用
- 錄案規、流、約→用
- 納 MCP 器或客定於案→用
## 入
- **必**:案型與技棧
- **必**:關規與約
- **可**:MCP 器配
- **可**:作者與貢者
- **可**:安與密要
## 行
### 一:建基 CLAUDE.md
置 `CLAUDE.md` 於案根:
````markdown
# Project Name
Brief description of what this project is and its purpose.
## Quick Start
Essential commands for working on this project:
```bash
# Install dependencies
npm install # or renv::restore() for R
# Run tests
npm test # or devtools::test() for R
# Build
npm run build # or devtools::check() for R
```
## Architecture
Key architectural decisions and patterns used in this project.
## Conventions
- Always use descriptive variable names
- Follow [language-specific style guide]
- Write tests for all new functionality
````
得:`CLAUDE.md` 存於案根,至少含案述、速啟命、構覽、規節。
敗:不確何納→始於僅速啟節含三要命(裝、試、建)。案演中漸擴。
### 二:加技節
**R 包**:
````markdown
## Development Workflow
```r
devtools::load_all() # Load for development
devtools::document() # Regenerate docs
devtools::test() # Run tests
devtools::check() # Full package check
```
## Package Structure
- `R/` - Source code (one function per file)
- `tests/testthat/` - Tests mirror R/ structure
- `vignettes/` - Long-form documentation
- `man/` - Generated by roxygen2 (do not edit manually)
## Critical Files (Do Not Delete)
- `.Rprofile` - Session configuration
- `.Renviron` - Environment variables (git-ignored)
- `renv.lock` - Locked dependencies
````
**Node.js/TypeScript**:
```markdown
## Stack
- Next.js 15 with App Router
- TypeScript strict mode
- Tailwind CSS for styling
- Vercel for deployment
## Conventions
- Use `@/` import alias for src/ directory
- Server Components by default, `"use client"` only when needed
- API routes in `src/app/api/`
```
得:技節合案實棧——R 案 R 包構、網案 Node.js 棧。命與路指真案布。
敗:案用未識棧→察 `package.json`、`DESCRIPTION`、`Cargo.toml` 或同等以辨技、加應節。
### 三:加 MCP 器信
```markdown
## Available MCP Servers
### r-mcptools (R Integration)
- **Purpose**: Connect to R/RStudio sessions
- **Status**: Configured
- **Configuration**: `claude mcp add r-mcptools stdio "Rscript.exe" -- -e "mcptools::mcp_server()"`
### hf-mcp-server (Hugging Face)
- **Purpose**: AI/ML model and dataset access
- **Status**: Configured
- **Configuration**: `claude mcp add hf-mcp-server -e HF_TOKEN=token -- mcp-remote https://huggingface.co/mcp`
```
得:每配 MCP 器有副節錄目、態(已配/可用/未配)、加之命。無真令或密。
敗:MCP 器未配→錄為「可用」附建指、非「已配」。憑證用佔位如 `your_token_here`。
### 四:加作者信
```markdown
## Author Information
### Standard Package Authorship
- **Name**: Author Name
- **Email**: author@example.com
- **ORCID**: 0000-0000-0000-0000
- **GitHub**: username
```
得:作者信節含名、信箱、ORCID(學/研案)、GitHub 用名。R 包式合 DESCRIPTION 要。
敗:作者信敏或不公→用機構名代個、或內案略此節。
### 五:加安指
```markdown
## Security & Confidentiality
- Never commit `.Renviron`, `.env`, or files containing tokens
- Use placeholder values in documentation: `YOUR_TOKEN_HERE`
- Environment variables for all secrets
- Git-ignored: `.Renviron`, `.env`, `credentials.json`
```
得:安節列永不可提之檔、文佔位規、確 `.gitignore` 蓋諸敏檔。
敗:不確何敏→`grep -rn "sk-\|ghp_\|password" .` 掃露密。任含真憑檔加 `.gitignore` 並述此節。
### 六:參技與指
```markdown
## Development Best Practices References
@agent-almanac/skills/write-testthat-tests/SKILL.md
@agent-almanac/skills/submit-to-cran/SKILL.md
```
得:關技與指以 `@` 路參,予 AI 助手案中常任之詳程。
敗:所參技或指於指路不存→驗路或移參。壞 `@` 參無價或惑助手。
### 七:加質與態信
```markdown
## Quality Status
- R CMD check: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 1 note
- Test coverage: 85%
- Tests: 200+ passing
- Vignettes: 3 (rated 9/10)
```
得:質指節映案今態附察果、覆、計、文之準數。
敗:指未備(新案)→佔位「TBD」、案熟後更。勿造數。
## 驗
- [ ] CLAUDE.md 於案根
- [ ] 速啟命準且行
- [ ] 構節映實案構
- [ ] 無敏(令、密、私路)
- [ ] MCP 器配為今
- [ ] 所參檔與路存
## 忌
- **舊信**:案構變時更 CLAUDE.md
- **過詳**:簡。鏈詳指、勿復容
- **敏數**:永勿納真令或憑。用佔位
- **衝指**:確 CLAUDE.md 不違其他配檔
- **缺於 `.Rbuildignore`**:R 包加 `^CLAUDE\\.md$` 於 `.Rbuildignore`
## 例
成案中觀式:
1. **putior**(829 行):詳 CLAUDE.md 含質指、20 成、MCP 整詳、開發流
2. **簡案**(20 行):僅速啟命與關規
CLAUDE.md 度合案複。
## 參
- `create-r-package` - CLAUDE.md 為包設之部
- `configure-mcp-server` - CLAUDE.md 中參 MCP 配
- `security-audit-codebase` - 驗 CLAUDE.md 中無密
