How do I make Claude give short answers permanently, without repeating it every chat?
一位Reddit用户和他们的老板在使用Claude时遇到了一个共同的问题：Claude的回复过于冗长。即使是简单的问题，Claude也会给出五段文字、标题和总结，导致他们不得不快速浏览并遗漏重要信息。他们正在寻求一个永久性的解决方案，希望Claude能提供更简洁的回答，并特别请求其他用户分享他们在“Settings > General > Profile > Instructions for Claude”中设置的精确指令文本，以避免在每次聊天中重复此要求。

My boss and I both use Claude for work and we keep hitting the same problem: the responses are way too long. We ask a simple question and get five paragraphs plus headers plus a summary. Both of us end up skimming and missing things.
I know you can tell it "be brief" in a chat, and I know you can put instructions in a project. But I don't want to do that every single time or per project. I want it set once, account-wide, applied to every new chat by default.
What I've tried or looked at:
- Settings > General > Profile > Instructions for Claude
- Styles (Concise preset)
Questions:
- Which of those actually sticks across all new chats?
- Can you set a custom style as the default so you don't have to pick it each time?
- What wording actually works? Vague stuff like "be concise" doesn't seem to do much. Are specific rules better, like "answer in 3 sentences max, no preamble, no recap, no closing questions"?
- Does any of this carry over to mobile and desktop, or is it web only?
Anyone who has this dialed in, I'd love to see your exact instruction text.
