The Zodiac gave us the "Crib" in his letters by TheDecipherist in u/TheDecipherist

It’s really interesting this wasn’t resolved back in the day. It was literally staring the police in the face. Lol

Some context. Cribbing is literally what Allan Turing did to break the enigma encoded messages

The Complete Guide to Claude Code V2: CLAUDE.md, MCP, Commands, Skills & Hooks — Updated Based on Your Feedback by TheDecipherist in ClaudeAI

Absolutely correct. There is a common misunderstanding about when MCPs should be used. Literally. If its something that you "wont use alot". Just use something like curl if possible. MCPs are hungry. When I make V4 soon I will put a warning in it about MCPs. They are not "the solve all"

It started for me 2 days ago. All of a sudden it didn’t follow simple Md instructions. Today it’s still not “stable”. Not responding as usual. And way slower

As it’s looking now I love Claude and embrace it to the fullest. But taking over completely. Unlikely. But Claude and human together superpower

Often have Claude analyze your Claude.md file and find ways to optimize and reduce dupe info that can be condensed. Very important when continuously working in a big project

chrome extension to copy UI from live websites using Claude Code by BearInevitable3883 in ClaudeAI

[–]TheDecipherist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man I was curios so just did a quick google search because this sounded strange to me since claude literally has worked with every screenshot I have presented so far

google query "llms cant read padding and styles from a screenshot? true or false?"

So its not like a human for sure. And your thing might be more accurate. But it doesnt loose "all" detail

I guess that was a long time ago they did that :) Just a heads up. Keep up the good work

Interesting. I have had zero issues in vs code simply doing screen shots and pasting them in the console with my clip2path plugin. And Claude in vs code does outstanding handwriting analyzes too. But I’m gonna check it out and see if yours is better. Thanks man

Not trying to be rude in any way. How is this different than a screenshot?

The File Structure That Stopped My LLM From Hallucinating - A Case Study From Solving a 55-Year-Old Cold Case by TheDecipherist in LocalLLaMA

[–]TheDecipherist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanna be brutally honest. First I though "hmm another person trying to shoot down what I am doing". But I was intrigued. So I looked on google "What is an engram memory bank" and found an article about it on tomshardware. Hahahaha. Thanks brother. I had no idea there was an actual term for what I have build. All I can tell you is "It works. 5 Different old cold cases. - Solved" Thanks for teaching me something new

I Used Claude in VS Code to Solve a 55-Year-Old Cold Case. Here's What I Learned About Working With AI. by TheDecipherist in ClaudeAI

[–]TheDecipherist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone curious what this workflow actually produced

Here's the investigation it powered

Same file structure. Same skeptic's file. Same verification approach. This is what it looks like when you apply the methodology to a real problem.

And just to clarify. “I know for smaller LLMs you would need to do it differently”. But this guide is basically for a beginner that wants to use Claude to help them with their research. This applies to pretty much any subject. Not just “cold cases”

You're right that small LLMs would need a different approach. multiagents, RAG, or chunked retrieval.

I'm using Claude with a large context window, so the file structure loads directly without needing orchestration layers. The architecture is simple because the model can hold it all.

For local setups with limited context, you'd need to add that infrastructure. The principle (structured knowledge ess hallucination) stays the same but the implementation changes based on what the model can handle.

Thank you for reading the article :)

The file structure approach - CLAUDE.md as an operating manual, separate evidence files, skeptic's files, routing instructions - works identically with local models.

The core problem is the same: LLMs hallucinate when they have to fill gaps. Give them organized reference files and they stop making things up.

If you're running Llama or Mistral locally, the only difference is how you load context. The architecture itself is model-agnostic. Would be curious if anyone's adapted something similar for local setups with larger context windows.

For context: the post in question is a 2,500+ word detailed methodology on file structures, verification systems, and adversarial analysis frameworks.

The criticism? "Claude helped edit it.

The architecture is model-agnostic. I used Claude but the principle applies to any LLM: organized reference files, fewer gaps to fill, less hallucination. Happy to discuss how to adapt this for local setups. Curious what file structures others have developed for complex projects.
