A 9-feature roadmap for building AI agents with Claude Code, from CLAUDE.md to MCP
MaryamMiradi · x · 2026-09-29
A practical roadmap of Claude Code features for building AI agents from scratch, covering CLAUDE.md (write rules before code, key rules first, 300 lines max), /clear to kill stale context, Plan Mode to catch design flaws before any file is written, custom commands for repeated prompts, and on through MCP servers.
Concrete examples: 12 blunt rules eliminated bad sync-node suggestions entirely; Plan Mode caught a missing PydanticAI output schema in 2 minutes instead of 2 hours of debugging.
