Description:
Generated by Claude Code 2.1.319 (Claude Opus 5.5)
core/CLAUDE.md has been removed. It contained one line, @AGENTS.md, which imported core/AGENTS.md.
Claude Code 2.1.277 and later loads AGENTS.md when a directory and its parents have no CLAUDE.md or CLAUDE.local.md. The "Project instructions" setting in /config controls this:
claude-md-or-agents-md(default): loadscore/AGENTS.md.claude-md-and-agents-md: loadscore/AGENTS.mdand any CLAUDE.md.claude-md: does not loadcore/AGENTS.md.managed-only: does not loadcore/AGENTS.md.
Claude Code does not load core/AGENTS.md in these cases:
- Versions before 2.1.277.
- The built-in AGENTS.md plugin is disabled.
- Some first sessions after upgrading from 2.1.276 or earlier.
- A personal
CLAUDE.local.mdexists incore/or above it.
