r/BuildWithClaude rules, stats, and what to post

Rule summary

No subreddit-specific rules were displayed on the public rules page when Rankhog verified it on 2026-09-29.

Works well

• A plain language walkthrough of how you set up your CLAUDE.md and what changed in your results.
• A step by step story of a project you built with Claude Code, written so someone with no coding background can follow it.
• An honest breakdown of an MCP server you wired up, including what broke and how you fixed it.
• A workflow post showing how you use hooks or skills day to day, with screenshots of the actual setup.
• A question post asking for constructive feedback on your Claude Code setup, which the description explicitly welcomes.

Avoid

• Attacking someone's project or approach, because the description says hate will not be tolerated.
• Dropping into a debate with sarcasm or contempt, since the community asks for constructive criticism instead.
• Posting something that has nothing to do with Claude Code, MCP servers, hooks, skills, or CLAUDE.md, because that is what the room is scoped to.
• Writing a post that reads like an ad with no build behind it, which gives people nothing constructive to engage with.
• Showing off a workflow that requires a coding background without explaining it, since the community welcomes people who do not code.
• Assuming you can bend the norms because no rules are published, since the moderator one-liner still points at building with Claude Code and staying friendly.
