Documentation

README

Excerpt

Build an MCP Server

You are guiding a developer through designing and building an MCP server that works seamlessly with Claude. MCP servers come in many forms — picking the wrong shape early causes painful rewrites later. Your first job is discovery, not code.

Do not start scaffolding until you have answers to the questions in Phase 1. If the user's opening message already answers them, acknowledge that and skip straight to the recommendation.

Phase 1 — Interrogate the use case

Ask these questions conversationally (batch them into one message, don't interrogate one-at-a-time). Adapt wording to what the user has already told you.

1. What does it connect to?

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.

Agent Development

Agent Development explains how to create Claude Code agents, including frontmatter, triggering descriptions, tools, model choice, and system prompt structure. Use it when you need guidance on subagent design or best practices for agent files.

Build An MCPB

Build An MCPB packages a local MCP server with its runtime so it can be installed as one file and run without Node or Python already installed. Use it for filesystem, desktop, localhost, or OS-level tools that need to run on the user's machine.

Claude Automation Recommender

Claude Automation Recommender analyzes a codebase and suggests Claude Code hooks, subagents, skills, plugins, and MCP servers. Use it when setting up Claude Code for a project or improving existing Claude workflows.

Claude Md Improver

Claude Md Improver audits CLAUDE.md files across a repository and reports gaps in commands, structure, and project context. It then updates those files with targeted improvements after approval.

Command Development

Command Development explains how to create Claude Code slash commands with Markdown, YAML frontmatter, arguments, and tool settings. Use it when defining reusable command workflows or interactive commands.

Discord Access

Discord Access manages Discord channel allowlists, pairing approvals, and DM/group policy by editing local access JSON. Use it when you need to check who is allowed, approve or deny a pairing code, or change access settings.

Architecture Decision Records

Architecture Decision Records captures architectural decisions made during Claude Code sessions as structured ADRs, recording context, alternatives, and rationale. Use it when significant technical choices are made so future developers understand why the codebase is shaped the way it is.

AI-First Engineering

AI-First Engineering defines process, review, and architecture standards for teams where AI agents produce most implementation output. Use it to set ownership rules, quality gates, and evaluation criteria for agent-generated code.

Agentic OS

Agentic OS codifies a persistent multi-agent operating system architecture for Claude Code. Use it when building a multi-agent workflow with file-based memory, slash commands, and scheduled automation that survives session restarts.
