Current behavior:

  • Only reads the closest CLAUDE.md file
  • If src/membership/CLAUDE.md exists, ignores parent CLAUDE.md files

Requested behavior:

  • Read both parent and child CLAUDE.md files
  • Combine global settings (from parent) + domain-specific settings (from child)

Use case:

  • Global coding conventions in root CLAUDE.md
  • Domain-specific business logic in subdirectory CLAUDE.md
  • Avoid duplication while maintaining hierarchy
