5-10 pings *per query* in deep research!

OK, so I am fairly new to Claude. And I want to warn other people who are also new. Make sure your environment has all necessary packages. The query fans out to a whole panel of 90 agents or something ridiculous, which is this amazing process, except the agents don't tell you what they need, they just start pinging the terminal looking for it.
So anyway to be productive 1) make sure they have packages 2) go through a single query with a single agent before letting them start the Process and make sure they have a strict policy. Otherwise it will completely maul your tokens and you won't get anywhere.

Legit, they just. don't. get it. Here's an excerpt from my global CLAUDE.md -
# Global Rule # 2: Avoid compound terminal commands. It spams the user.

- Avoid compounding commands. It alerts the user. They must stop what they are doing and click "Yes."

- Commonly whitelisted read-only commands like cd, rg, ls, etc. alert the user when compounded (cd … && rg, cd | rg, cd ; rg)

- **All** such requests will be denied with this answer. "do one command at a time, if you compound them it pings me and i have to click yes". If you see this exact denial more than twice, the user is seriously considering switching back to Codex. Or to Grok. OK, not Grok.

Sadly, the denial is locked and loaded when using any new claude, global rules notwithstanding.
