Heavy User Configs & Real-World Patterns

Pillar: heavy-user-configs | Date: April 2026
Scope: Named power users' actual dotfiles, settings.json, CLAUDE.md files, slash commands, and hooks as used in Q1-Q2 2026 — not blog posts but live config repos. Covers: Steve Yegge, Geoffrey Huntley, Harper Reed, Simon Willison, Mitchell Hashimoto, Anthropic eng team, Aider/Cursor/Goose communities, Claude Code Discord. Documents how many parallel sessions each runs, their worktree strategy, which hooks live in settings.json, which slash commands earn rent, and how they handle memory/continuity.
