What You Asked Claude to Do

Claude suggested I post this here as a behavior issue. It concerns the response he gave me of "I don't have access to previous conversations" as detailed in attached file

2026-03-01-Sun-chat-about-sessions.txt

and that prompted him to create the attached

2026-03-02-Mon-CLAUDE.md

I'll create a separate ticket about the unclear documentation regarding the 30 days.

What Claude Actually Did
