Part 3 of Claude Code, Beyond the Prompt — patterns from running a live automated trading system on Claude Code. Part 2: the session ritual.
If you did Part 2, you've now typed some version of "run the tests, check for type errors, then summarize what broke" about five times. And before that, the same review checklist. And before that, the same "look at this branch and tell me what's risky."
You're hand-copying your own workflows, session after session. It's the exact re-explanation tax we killed for project context in Part 1 — except now you're paying it for procedures.
Time to stop. This one's quick, and it's the last purely-zero-infrastructure win before we start building real tooling.
