User shares effective rule-based system for Claude Code development

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A non-developer user shared their system for effectively using Claude Code for various projects, including a home computer emulator and a phone app. Their success hinges on implementing specific rules rather than relying solely on prompts. Key among these rules are requiring a "merge" command before going live, maintaining a HANDOFF file for session continuity, demanding verifiable proof of completion, setting hard time limits for background processes, and employing a "manager" session to oversee and log decisions.
