This article covers how to set up Claude Code effectively before starting a project to improve development workflow and consistency.
•Creating a CLAUDE.md file with project details (language, framework, database access, folder structure, coding standards) ensures Claude always has context without re-explaining each session
•The permissions system uses three hierarchical settings files (managed-settings.json, settings.json, settings.local.json) to control what Claude can and cannot access
•The deny list should block environment files, destructive git operations, direct database CLI commands, network tools, and system-level commands
•Custom slash commands stored in .claude/commands/ as markdown files enable repeatable, structured actions like security audits and architecture reviews
•
Within a settings file, deny rules override allow rules, but higher-priority settings files override lower-priority ones in the hierarchy
