Exam CCAR-F Topic 1 Question 11 Discussion

Actual exam question for Anthropic's CCAR-F exam
Question #: 11
Topic #: 1
Your infrastructure-as-code repository includes Terraform modules (/terraform/), Kubernetes manifests (/kubernetes/), and CI/CD pipeline scripts (/pipelines/). Each requires different conventions, but your single root CLAUDE.md has grown to 500+ lines. When developers work on Kubernetes files, Terraform-specific rules load into context unnecessarily, consuming tokens.
What is the best approach to reorganize so only relevant guidance loads when editing specific file types?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

The paths field conditionally loads each rule only when Claude works with matching files, preventing unrelated Terraform, Kubernetes, or pipeline guidance from consuming context.
Subdirectory CLAUDE.md files are directory-based, while path-scoped rules provide precise file- pattern targeting.
