Why I refuse to update my CLAUDE.md

I Am Morally Opposed to Updating My Claude.md

A developer explains why he refuses to update his CLAUDE.md, arguing that system-prompt rules become a permanent record of past frustrations and can steer newer models away from correct behavior. He prefers talking to Claude in the moment instead of writing rules, calling the file a 'grievance archive' and comparing its rules to laws passed in anger.
