Agent Guides

Field guides and a production skill collection for Claude Code, current with the July 2026 ecosystem: commands merged into skills, native subagents with worktree isolation, lifecycle hooks, path-scoped memory, and the Agent Skills open standard.

The repo tracks the ecosystem as it moves. Last full audit: July 2026 against code.claude.com/docs and METR's published time-horizon data.

📚 Guides

GuideWhat it covers
Agent SkillsSKILL.md anatomy, full frontmatter, dynamic context injection, context: fork subagent execution, precedence, distribution
Custom Commands/commands quick start: arguments, frontmatter, built-in command map
Subagents.claude/agents/, background-by-default execution, worktree isolation, persistent memory, orchestration patterns
HooksDeterministic guardrails: event table, matchers, decision JSON, five production recipes
MemoryCLAUDE.md, .claude/rules/ path scoping, auto memory, AGENTS.md interop, what-goes-where table
Code SearchNatural-language codebase search, memory files that improve it, custom search skills
Conversation SearchSession history: JSONL storage format, /resume picker, jq/rg power recipes

Which surface when: facts → memory · procedures → skills · isolated or parallel work → subagents · hard enforcement → hooks · external systems → MCP.

🛠️ Skills Collection

claude-skills/ — 13 skills in standard SKILL.md layout, dependencies (references, templates, scripts) included. Install one or all:

cp -r claude-skills/multi-mind ~/.claude/skills/   # one
cp -R claude-skills/*/ ~/.claude/skills/           # all
SkillWhat it does
multi-mindFans judgment questions out to 4-6 decorrelated specialist subagents with adversarial cross-pollination rounds
capability-horizon-estimatorAnswers "can the model do this, and how long will it take" with METR time-horizon math: logistic success curve, doubling-rate extrapolation, best-of-N, wall-clock calculator
epistemic-libidoFilters and ranks papers, posts, and ideas for high-entropy mechanistic insight and underpriced leverage — separates fertile results from hype
audit-sft-data-qualityAudits SFT datasets against the behavior they teach: contracts, contamination, lineage, train/review/reject dispositions
tokenbendingExperiment discipline: deterministic contract vs fuzzy choices, preserve-before-delete, stop-on-first-failure
worklogIssue-led atomic work journal: one issue per unit, comment ledger, closeout checklist
paper-ocr-notes-pipelinePaper PDF/URL → grounded OCR + teachable notes.md, with identity gate and revision passes
pdf-ocr-feedbackHigh-accuracy OCR via self-scoring rubric and Maj@K consensus voting
technical-writing-workflowFull technical writing pipeline: ontology tables, outline contracts, rigor and anti-slop passes, audit scripts
blade-and-contractProvocative but defensible rhetoric: lead with the blade, anchor with the contract
playwrightBrowser automation from the terminal via playwright-cli, wrapper script included
manim-math-explainerManim Community math scenes: style rules, templates, render loop
x-thread-readerFull X/Twitter threads through twitter-thread.com with fallbacks
