CLEAR SESSION
When the conversation turned into soup, reset.
Long sessions pollute the context. Claude starts remembering things that no longer matter and losing focus on what does.
/clear wipes it. Costs nothing, recovers precision.
If you caught yourself re-explaining the same thing twice in the same session, the clear was due one answer earlier.
In practice
# In the Claude prompt:
/clear
# Or the shortcut (terminal):
Esc Esc + clear
# Heuristic: re-explained the same thing
# twice in the session? The clear was due
# one answer earlier.This practice is part of Claude Code OS, the full blueprint of the practices that separate following a tutorial from actually working with Claude. Ler em português.
