[Bug] Uncontrolled Project History Accumulation in Configuration File

Bug Description

⏺ Summary:

• Reduced file from 892 to 432 lines (52% smaller)
• Removed project history that was taking 851 lines
• MCP configurations preserved (zen-mcp server intact)
• Created backup at ~/.claude.json.backup-20250902

To prevent future bloat:

• The history seems to accumulate all your prompts/commands
• Consider periodically clearing it with: jq 'del(.projects[].history)' ~/.claude.json
• Unfortunately, there's no built-in setting to disable history tracking in Claude
