    "description": "Claude Code's knowledge fabric is built on a hierarchical markdown file\nsystem. CLAUDE.md files at project root, nested directories, and user home\nprovide persistent instructions and context that survive across sessions.\nAuto-memory extraction (`/memory` command, background consolidation)\nautomatically captures lessons, preferences, and project-specific knowledge\ninto `~/.claude/memory/MEMORY.md` and project-level memory files. The\nhierarchy is: enterprise CLAUDE.md > user CLAUDE.md > project CLAUDE.md >\nnested directory CLAUDE.md. Knowledge is retrieved via file-hierarchy\ntraversal at session bootstrap and injected into the system prompt.\n",

The knowledge is not\nvector-embedded; retrieval is file-system traversal with scope precedence.\n"
