Major audit correcting misleading documentation about Claude Code behavior: ### Fixed - `--add-dir`: permissions (not context loading) - `excludePatterns` → `permissions.deny` (never existed) - `.claudeignore` removed (not an official feature) - "selective loading" myth → lazy loading reality - Invented CLI flags (`--think`, `--headless`, `--learn`) → prompt keywords - `@` file reference: "loads automatically" → "reads on-demand" ### Added - Session Search Tool (`cs`) - zero-dep bash script for finding sessions - Security section: Known limitations of permissions.deny 15 files modified, 516 insertions, 200 deletions Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
