229229Claude Code uses any pattern that would exceed the budget unexpanded, and its literal braces match no files. Before v2.1.217, a `paths` value with many brace groups stalled or crashed the CLI at startup.

231Glob syntax treats `[` as the start of a bracket expression such as `[abc]`. A pattern with a `[` that can't be read as a bracket expression, such as `photos [2024/**`, is invalid: it matches nothing, and the rule's other patterns keep working. To match a literal `[` in a file name, escape it as `photos \[2024/**`. Before v2.1.207, one invalid pattern made the Read tool fail for every file the rule was evaluated against, instead of matching nothing.

615615If one of your instruction files is over the recommended length, you see a warning at startup and when you run `/status`. You also see a warning when files that are each within that length add up past a combined limit at session start. Each CLAUDE.md, rules file, and `@path` import counts as a separate file.

617The [`/doctor`](/docs/en/commands#all-commands) checkup proposes trims for a checked-in CLAUDE.md: it cuts content Claude can derive from the codebase, such as directory layouts, dependency lists, and architecture overviews, and keeps pitfalls, rationale, and conventions that differ from tool defaults. The trim check requires Claude Code v2.1.206 or later.
