Usage & Limits·14 hours ago·verified 14 hours ago·easy·~10 min setup·verified

Use the bundled /doctor skill to find duplicate local memory, unused MCP/plugins, and slow hooks eating budget.

#doctor #diagnostics #mcp #claude-md

The problem

Local CLAUDE.md copies, leftover MCP servers, and sluggish hooks silently tax every session.

The hack

Run `/doctor` periodically and apply its cleanup suggestions for memory, MCP, and hooks.

Why it works

Official commands list /doctor as the setup checkup that diagnoses install health and context cost waste.

Setup

1. Run `/doctor` in the project. 2. Deduplicate local vs checked-in CLAUDE.md content as suggested. 3. Remove unused MCP servers/plugins it flags relative to cost. 4. Fix or remove slow hooks, then start a fresh session to measure improvement.

Prompt

/doctor

Additional details

Good monthly hygiene, especially after installing lots of plugins.
