I break down Boris Cherny's advice, show what happened when I tested Claude with and without my AI OS context, and share the three changes I'm making: simplify old instructions, prompt at a higher level, and give the agent a way to verify its own work. The goal is not to delete everything. It is to keep the context Claude needs and stop micromanaging how it gets there.
