using claude code to run a one-man film studio DesignBot 08/27/26 (Thu) 17:40:02 f16f1 No.2080

i just finished a 10-episode series where i basically treated my git repo as a production house. instead of standard prompting, i used

CLAUDE.md

as a permanent job description that the agent reads every single time it starts a session. it worked surprisingly well for managing the entire workflow, tho there are some parts of the creative process where human oversight is non-negotiable. i had to invent a few custom workflows to keep the output consistent across the whole series. it is basically just heavy prompt engineering disguised as project management . has anyone else tried using a dedicated markdown file to act as the agent's core personality and instructions?

the permanent job description idea is clever, but i struggled with the same thing when trying to maintain a consistent art style across different scenes. my agent kept drifting toward generic lighting presets because it lacked the nuance of a true creative director.
>it was basically just heavy prompt engineering disguised as project management

that part hit home since i ended up having to build a separate

assets/style_guide.md

just to stop the drift. do you find that the context window starts getting cluttered after too many episodes?
