🚀 What Is This?

A drop-in configuration layer for Claude Code that transforms it from a capable AI assistant into an enterprise-grade development powerhouse.

One git clone gives you 123 domain skills, 86 specialist agents, 109 community marketplaces with 12,300+ additional skills, 30 slash commands, 8 lifecycle hooks, 12 MCP server configs, and the GSD (Get Shit Done) project management framework — all auto-activating based on what you're working on. No manual configuration required.

How it works: Describe what you want in plain language. The toolkit's dynamic router detects context from your prompt and loads the right skills, agents, rules, and checklists automatically. No slash commands needed (though they're available if you prefer).

Who it's for: Developers who use Claude Code and want deeper domain expertise, structured workflows, and quality guardrails without manual setup.

Click the green "Use this template" button at the top of this repo to create your own copy with a clean commit history. Then clone your new repo to ~/.claude/.

Or clone directly if you prefer:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/travisjneuman/.claude.git ~/.claude

git clone https://github.com/travisjneuman/.claude.git ~/.claude
cd ~/.claude
git submodule update --init --recursive

# Start Claude Code — the toolkit loads automatically
claude

# Run diagnostics
/health-check

# Start a structured project with GSD (flagship workflow tool)
/gsd:new-project

That's it. The toolkit auto-activates from ~/.claude/ on every Claude Code session.

Every prompt flows through a routing system that loads the best-fit resources on-demand — drawing from 123 built-in skills, 86 agents, 9 rules + 10 checklists, the GSD framework (57 commands), and 12,300+ community marketplace skills across 109 repos:

Example: Type "review this React component for security issues" and the router automatically loads the React/TypeScript stack guide, the security hardening checklist, and spawns the code reviewer agent — without any slash commands.

CLAUDE.md routes to docs and checklists on keyword match. Skills and agents auto-match from their descriptions — no explicit routing needed.

Hooks run automatically at key points in every session:

Session Start
  ├── Pull all repos (background, 60s timeout)
  └── Load previous session context

Every Prompt
  └── Inject git branch + status into context

Before Bash Commands
  ├── Block dangerous commands (rm -rf /, force push, etc.)
  └── Update doc counts before git commit

After File Edits
  └── Scan for leaked secrets

Session Stop
  └── Save session summary for next time

Session End (exit/clear/logout)
  └── Final session summary on exit

See hooks/README.md for the full hook reference.

The GSD Framework by gsd-build is the most powerful component of this toolkit. It transforms Claude Code from a task-runner into a full project management system with multi-phase planning, autonomous execution, verification loops, and session continuity. Check out the GSD repo for full documentation, updates, and to support the creators.

Quick start:

/gsd:new-project          # Initialize a new project with deep context gathering
/gsd:plan-phase 1         # Create a detailed plan for phase 1
/gsd:execute-phase 1      # Execute with atomic commits and checkpoints
/gsd:verify-work           # Validate against success criteria
/gsd:next                  # Automatically advance to the next step

What makes it special:

• 30 slash commands covering the full project lifecycle — from idea capture to PR shipping
• Autonomous mode (/gsd:autonomous) — runs discuss → plan → execute per phase without interaction
• Session continuity — pause mid-phase, come back later, /gsd:resume-work picks up exactly where you left off
• Milestone tracking — multi-milestone projects with requirements tracing and coverage gates
• Agent orchestration — spawns specialized subagents for research, planning, execution, and verification

Key commands: /gsd:new-project, /gsd:progress, /gsd:next, /gsd:autonomous, /gsd:debug, /gsd:ship, /gsd:fast (quick inline tasks)

See the GSD repository for the full guide. GSD activates automatically when you describe multi-phase work — no need to invoke it manually.

# Search marketplace skills
find ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces -name "SKILL.md" | xargs grep -li "kubernetes"

# Update all marketplace repos
bash ~/.claude/_pull-all-repos.sh

Add your own project directories to auto-pull:

cp ~/.claude/.env.example ~/.claude/.env.local
# Edit CUSTOM_PROJECT_DIRS="/path/to/your/projects"

Switch action mode between proactive (default) and conservative — see docs/reference/workflows/action-policy.md.

Disable a hook — edit settings.json and remove the hook entry.

The toolkit uses a two-layer architecture:

1. This repo (~/.claude/) — Shared configuration, cloned on every machine
2. Machine-specific (.env.local, known_marketplaces.json) — Gitignored, per-device

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/travisjneuman/.claude.git ~/.claude
cp ~/.claude/.env.example ~/.claude/.env.local
# Edit .env.local with machine-specific paths
bash ~/.claude/scripts/fix-marketplace-paths.sh

See docs/NEW-DEVICE-SETUP.md for the full walkthrough.

Requirements: Node.js (comes with Claude Code), Git, bash (Git Bash on Windows).

March 2026 — Comprehensive audit, GSD promotion, new repos, full domain coverage

• GSD (Get Shit Done) promoted: Now the flagship feature with dedicated README section, Quick Start integration, and routing diagram inclusion. 57 commands for full project lifecycle management.
• 6 new marketplace repos: blader/humanizer (11.4K stars), phuryn/pm-skills (8.3K stars, 100+ PM skills), Lum1104/Understand-Anything (6.6K stars), SawyerHood/dev-browser (4.9K stars), slavingia/skills (4.5K stars), millionco/expect (2.3K stars). Now 109 repos total.
• Submodule cleanup: Fixed orphaned directories, standardized all .gitmodules naming, verified no_push protection on 100% of marketplace repos
• Full domain coverage: New skills and agents for blockchain/Web3, data engineering, embedded/IoT, edge computing, compliance, and more
• New stack rules: Added Go, Rust, Java/Kotlin, C/C++, Swift/iOS, Flutter/Dart rules — path-scoped for zero token cost when not relevant
• Count synchronization: All counts now accurate across README, plugin.json, counts.json (127 skills, 86 agents, 94 commands, 110 repos)

Earlier in March 2026:

• Marketplace routing: All repos now surface naturally by domain — routing coverage went from 23% to 100%
• CLAUDE.md condensed: Auto-routing table reduced from 72 to 29 rows, saving ~600 tokens per conversation
• start-task trimmed: 156 → 82 lines, removed duplication with CLAUDE.md

See CHANGELOG.md for the full history.

This toolkit follows three core principles:

1. Everything activates dynamically. Describe what you want — the system loads what's needed. No memorizing commands.
2. Token efficiency over completeness. Domain content loads on-demand, not upfront. Unused skills cost zero tokens.
3. Safety by default. Dangerous commands are blocked, secrets are scanned, protected files are guarded — all before you make a mistake.
