working more on a post about what we learned doing this and how you can apply this to your skills and system prompts
Anthropic recently cut Claude Code’s system prompt by 80%.
@trq212 explains why:
“As the models have gotten smarter, they need less direction, fewer constraints, and fewer examples.
The examples are constraining it because now it’s like, ‘Oh, you want things like this example.’ If you remove the examples, it can actually be more free-form.
All this is to say that you want to trim your context [when a new model is released]. The latest models often need more room to run.”
