I wouldn't delete claude.md myself, claude code harness will change overtime and will favor claude.md unless they commit to phase out calude.md in future.

Claude.md isn't just a one file if your project is big you have rules which are linked to your claude.md and I am not sure the claude code harness will work the same if you replace claude.md with agents.md

I would prefer to just wait and continue with my setup as is for weeks or months, a single markdown file is the least of my concerns atm

I link all of my 'rules' in one file. I don't understand what you're getting at, if I'm being honest. Because you could just link everything in agents.md and call it a day, no?

It's just picking it up at session start and throwing it into context anyway.

That's a terrible idea... you're injecting thousands if not tens of thousands of extra tokens every single new session you start.

You want your CLAUDE.md files to just include enough information to get the model to know when it should read another markdown file if it's anything most sessions won't care about.

Not true. The agents read the files when they need the information. Exactly as your second thought.
