Awesome Claude Code

Awesome

A hand-picked collection of the finest of resources for the most awesome of agents, Claude Code, the undisputed champion of coding companions, from the unstoppable team at Anthropic PBC. A delectable showcase of top tier skills, ambidextrous agents, scintillating status lines, top notch developer tooling, and also we have plugins. Suitable for beginners and veterans, with an emphasis on code quality, security, and originality.


The current iteration of the list, such as you see it today, was launched with the express intent to highlight resources that were not on the last iteration, and in particular to make selections from the list of recommendations. However, this is only temporary - resources will continue to be added over the coming weeks, and "legacy" resources will be migrated to the new format. So, if you had been featured on the list before, and you don't see your project now, that's the reason why - "legacy" resources that are still maintained and awesome will be added back in soon - and, in the meantime, they are also preserved (but will not be updated) in the README_ALTERNATIVES directory.

  • A Field Guide to Claude Fable 5 by Thariq Shihipar, Anthropic - Really solid, insightful guidance on working/thinking with Claude Fable, and with AI in general. Very well written. Hints of Rumsfeld epistemology, but otherwise it's a great piece.

  • andrej-karpathy-skills by multica-ai - A drop-in CLAUDE.md distilling four behavioral guidelines for LLM-assisted coding into Claude Code — a low-friction quick win. Karpathy-inspired, derived from Andrej Karpathy's public notes on LLM coding pitfalls and authored by multica-ai.

  • Beyond the Prompt: Claude Code by Arpan Patel - This has what you need. Remarkably clear, information-dense, it's Claude Code: the good parts, for beginners, advanced users, pets, anybody.

  • Claude Code Guide by zebbern - A current single-page reference for Claude Code: install, environment variables, slash commands, MCP, hooks, and subagents, kept in sync with the official changelog.

  • Claude Code Hooks: Complete Guide by Hidekazu Konishi - A thorough walkthrough of every hook event, when each fires, the two return channels, common anti-patterns, and copy-ready settings.json examples.

  • Claude Code: Everything You Need to Know by wesammustafa - A conceptual, mental-models-first primer that explains what Claude Code is and how its agentic loop works, then layers setup, prompt-engineering workflows, skills, hooks, MCP, subagents, and agent teams, with an experience-tiered path for newcomers.

  • claude-howto by luongnv89 - A structured, chapter-based getting-started guide for Claude Code with a self-assessment quiz and a ten-module progressive learning path — slash commands, memory, skills, subagents, MCP, hooks, plugins, and checkpoints — with visual diagrams and copy-paste templates.

  • explore-claude-code by Luke Renton - An interactive click-through of an annotated Claude Code project where every file and folder — CLAUDE.md, settings.json, rules, commands, skills, agents, hooks, plugins, and .mcp.json — is a real, explained concept, teaching the tool's surface area by orientation rather than prose.

  • Learn Claude Code by shareAI-lab - A really interesting analysis of how coding agents like Claude Code are designed. It attempts to break an agent down into its fundamental parts and reconstruct it with minimal code. Great learning resource. Final product is a rudimentary agent with skills, sub-agents, and a todo-list in roughly a few hundred lines of Python.

  • Writing a Good CLAUDE.md by HumanLayer - An essay on CLAUDE.md craft: instruction-budget reasoning, progressive disclosure, and the test of whether Claude would err without a given line.

From Anthropic

  • Agent Skills by Anthropic - Anthropic's official repository for Agent Skills — the SKILL.md format, a skill template, and example skills, the same format Claude Code loads natively.

  • Building Effective Agents by Anthropic - Anthropic's foundational taxonomy of agent patterns — prompt chaining, routing, orchestrator-workers, and evaluator-optimizer — and when to use each.

  • Claude Code Best Practices by Anthropic - Anthropic's canonical guide to working effectively with Claude Code: the agentic-loop mental model, CLAUDE.md guidance, and workflow patterns.

  • Claude Code Cheatsheet by Anthropic - Anthropic's official Claude Code cheatsheet — a quick reference for the core vocabulary (session, context window, CLAUDE.md), built-in slash commands, and keyboard shortcuts.

  • How Claude Code Works by Anthropic - The official conceptual explainer of Claude Code's agentic loop, tools, and context window, and how skills, hooks, and subagents layer on top.

  • How We Built Our Multi-Agent Research System by Anthropic - A practical account of orchestrator and subagent coordination, prompt design, and evaluation that maps directly to Claude Code's subagents and agent teams.
