CLAUDE.md self-improvement instructions not consistently followed by the model
증상
Claude Code does not consistently apply self-improvement instructions defined in CLAUDE.md, even when they are explicit and well-structured.
원인
Environment variable, configuration file, or initialization parameter missing, malformed, or incorrectly scoped.
해결법
works (build, type-check)
- Proactively update the relevant rule/memory so the mistake doesn’t repeat
The instruction was explicit: “Ne pas demander la permission pour ces mises à jour — les faire silencieusement dans le cadre du fix. L’utilisateur ne devrait jamais avoir à dire ‘crée une rule pour ça’” (Don’t ask permission — do it silently. The user should never have to say “create a rule for this”).
