Phase 03 -- The shape of the road

Set Up Claude Once for Your Firm

The "always-on" file that makes Claude remember GGP's rules, your style, and your context across every conversation.

DemoM4 -- Tue May 12, closing ~15 min

What we cover

  • What CLAUDE.md is in plain English (and why it's not a developer-only tool)
  • GGP's firm-level CLAUDE.md draft -- what's in it, what's not
  • How to add a personal CLAUDE.md layer for your own role
  • The memory/ folder pattern for skills that learn from past runs

Why it matters

Without this, every Claude conversation starts from zero. With it, Claude knows your firm's rules, your DealCloud conventions, your no-go list -- before you say a word.

Hands-on moment

Pull up the GGP firm CLAUDE.md handout. Write one rule you wish Claude knew about your work. Read it to a neighbor. Mike collects the best ones for the firm-level file.

Peer moment (3 min)

What's one thing you've explained to Claude three times this week? That's a CLAUDE.md candidate.
