The automated review consistently flags patterns your team uses intentionally—force-unwrapping optionals in test files, using...

Option D supplies the missing repository-specific knowledge before Claude evaluates the code. The project’s CLAUDE.md should state that force-unwrapping is permitted within test paths, explain the coordinator-class architecture, and identify the internally maintained deprecated module as an approved dependency. These instructions should be concise and scoped carefully so exceptions do not become global permissions.

Anthropic’s CLAUDE.md documentation defines project CLAUDE.md files as persistent context for coding standards, architecture, workflows, and team conventions. They are loaded at the beginning of applicable sessions, preventing the organization from repeatedly supplying the same corrections. Anthropic also recommends recording information that Claude should know whenever it works in the repository.

Option A filters generated findings after tokens have already been consumed and can hide genuine issues containing similar terminology. Option B removes valuable surrounding context and would likely increase false positives and missed cross-file defects. Option C distributes project knowledge across individual source lines, creates maintenance overhead, and requires custom preprocessing. Centralized, narrowly scoped CLAUDE.md instructions address the root cause and improve the initial review judgment instead of repairing its output afterward.
