Try it yourself · Pam learns
Where: the same Claude Code folder as Level 2. When: after every run, for the first few weeks.
- Read what she produced and write down each problem in one line.
- For each problem, decide the fix: a rule in
CLAUDE.md, a script that does the math, or a check that stops a bad result. - Ask Claude to make the change, then run the same task again.
- Compare the two runs. Keep the change only if the problem is gone.
What to ask Claude
After a run:
Here is what was wrong in this week's report: [one line per problem].
For each one, propose the smallest fix: a rule in CLAUDE.md, a script, or a check.
Don't change anything yet. Show me the list first.
After you approve the list:
Make those changes. Then run the report again and tell me what changed compared to the last run.
Rules worth adding early
- "Never calculate a number yourself. Use the scripts."
- "Every insight cites the file and the row it comes from."
- "When two sources disagree, say so."
- "Check the result against the format before you save it."
