Be Ahead is my insider from daily practice, and from this issue on it comes once a month. This issue goes out to 185 readers. Over the last month I wrote down more than 80 lessons: mistakes, corrections and shortcuts from working with Claude Code, from client projects and from my own apps. Most of them are small stuff. Eight changed the way I work, and you get them here with the steps to rebuild them.

The eight most important lessons of this month:

  1. Rules in the prompt do not hold, a hook does
  2. A HEAD request is not a harmless test
  3. Check packages first, then install
  4. Traffic estimates for competitors are often four times too high
  5. Search Console: never read positions from "query plus page"
  6. With and without a trailing slash: two URLs for the same page
  7. Agents need measurable criteria and a brake
  8. Backfilling content can send 163 emails before you notice
