Right, so you see the part where you "ask Claude to do a task" and then "copy-paste it into the template"? He was automating that because he has some n tasks he wants it to do without damaging the prior tasks.

You can just clear the context or restart your Claude instance between tasks. e.g.:

  > do task 1
  ...task fails...
  > please update Claude.md so you don't make X mistake
  > /clear
  > do task 2
  ... task fails ...
  > please update Claude.md so you don't make Y mistake
  > /clear
  etc.
If you want a clean state between tasks you can just commit your Claude.md and `git reset --hard`.

I just don't get why you'd need have to a separate Claude that is solely responsible for updating Claude.md. Maybe they didn't want to bother with git?
