What it does
claude-code-kit gathers skills, mods, subagents, hooks, slash commands and guides for Claude Code in one repository. The global optimization guide promises a 70-90 percent token reduction; that is the author's claim, and the README gives no independent measurements. Installation runs through the agent. It reads `INSTALL.md`, inspects the environment, proposes a selection from ready bundles (starter, code intelligence, delivery, multi-agent, mods, security, unattended, stack-specific) and, after approval, installs files from the latest release tag without overwriting anything. The `01-global-optimization/skills` folder holds 18 global skills, among them `/optimize`, `/ctx`, `/agent-ready` and `/company`. `17-mods/marketplace` is an example marketplace of 13 mods.
Who it is for. Claude Code users who want a ready set of skills and hooks instead of assembling one from many repositories.
Good fit when
- A fresh Claude Code install should get a starter set of skills for your stack.
- Token use grows in long sessions and ready techniques such as context compaction and cache inspection are wanted.
- Unattended runs on a server or in CI need security hooks and secret protection.
- A team exploring Claude Code mods wants working examples to read.
Not a fit when
- Installing everything: the repository is built for choosing parts, not for a full install.
- You work in Cursor or Codex: mods, hooks and slash commands exist only for Claude Code.
- You want one small skill: a dedicated repository is simpler.
Example request
Read INSTALL.md from the escapeboy/claude-code-kit repository, inspect my setup and propose what is worth installing. Install nothing without my approval.Limitations
Mods need Claude Code 2.1.287 or newer, and mod tests need 2.1.294. Outside Claude Code only the Markdown parts are usable, while hooks and slash commands do not run. The agent merges changes into `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` and `settings.json` with a backup, so review the diff before approving. The repository is large, and some guides cover stacks you do not use. Token savings figures come from the author without independent checks.
How to disable. Delete installed skills from `~/.claude/skills`, then the hooks and `settings.json` entries and the sections added to `CLAUDE.md`. The `.bak` backups help restore the previous state.
FAQ
How do I install the kit?
Ask the agent to read `INSTALL.md` from the repository and pick what fits. It inspects the environment, proposes a selection and installs files after your approval.
Will installation overwrite my files?
No. If a file or folder already exists, the agent shows the diff and asks to keep, replace or skip. Anything replaced is first copied to a `.bak` file.
Does the kit work outside Claude Code?
Partly. Skills and subagent files are plain Markdown and work as reference prompts, while mods, hooks and slash commands work only in Claude Code.
Are keys required?
Not for installation. The runbook states the agent must not ask for credentials or write any.
How do I update what is installed?
Keep the repository clone: it is the update source. The agent takes a fresh release tag and asks for approval again before replacing files.
