Environment
- Platform (select one): Anthropic API
- Claude CLI version: 1.0.41
- Operating System: macOS Sequoia 15.5
- Terminal: Terminal App
Description
Not entirely sure this is a bug but Claude seems to lose all context on a project when a plan upgrade is completed.
Steps to Reproduce
- Do more than a weeks worth of work with claude
- Upgrade your sub to get more opus
- Claude doesn't seem to know anything about the repo
Expected Behavior
I expected claude to be less clueless
Actual Behavior
Very clueless claude!
Additional Context
I have CLAUDE.md's scattered around my repo with lots of context. Maybe I need to have Claude read them after every upgrade, but I haven't really had to do that or use --continue previously. Probably best practices but flagging for Anthropic's attention.
