Module 4 · Project and quiz
Your Company CLAUDE.md, Tested on 3 Tasks
Write a complete CLAUDE.md for your business using the template in this module: positioning, offers, ideal clients, voice, red lines, quality bar and folder map. Then prove it works by running three real tasks and fixing whatever the tests reveal.
1Organise your Company folder using the agent-friendly folder structure guide.
2Copy the Company CLAUDE.md template into the root of your Company folder.
3Ask Claude to pre-fill it from your existing files and interview you for the gaps.
4Write your red lines and quality bar, one rule per line with a reason.
5Restart Claude Code and confirm with /context that CLAUDE.md loaded.
6Run three real tasks: a client email, a short analysis and a one-page summary.
7Try to break two red lines on purpose and note what happens.
8Fix any wording that failed and rerun the tests until all three tasks pass.
Deliverable
A tested CLAUDE.md under about 200 lines at the root of your Company folder, plus a short test log showing three tasks and two red-line tests.
Done when
- CLAUDE.md appears under memory files in /context.
- A fresh session can describe your ideal client, main offer and voice without other files.
- The client email draft needs no more than light edits.
- Both red-line tests were refused or escalated to you.
- The folder map matches your real folders.
