How Do You Usually Get Around When Starting Big Projects In Claude Code?

This question will probably make more sense when I explain my current situation: lately I’ve been doing some small projects here and there to some small business in my town and they have been working fine, but that is about to change.

I managed to get a big opportunity where this large accounting office (which has stopped in time for the past 10 years or so) wants me to build a robust dashboard/RAG solution for them, which will also function as their main source to also organize their clients files in a more “visually appealing” way compared to navigating through a million Windows folders. They have over 500 clients.

So right now I have all these ideas and before vomiting them all in a Claude Code session, I’m considering my options because, for all the past projects, vomiting my ideas in 2-3 prompts was enough to get most of it done, with just a few security adjustments by the end…this case it’s different.

How do you guys deal with this type of scenario? Do you have patterns to build your own functional specifications to throw into Claude? You build specific .mds? What has worked for you?
I’m curious to learn how other people work around bigger projects from scratch in Claude.

edit: Lots of great responses in here, thanks everyone!
