awesome-claude-code

Awesome Claude Code is a hand-picked directory of resources for Anthropic's Claude Code, an agentic coding assistant that runs as a command-line tool. The collection is aimed at both beginners and experienced users and emphasizes code quality, security, and originality. The current iteration was launched to highlight resources that were not on the previous version, particularly selections from community recommendations. Resources from earlier editions are preserved in the README_ALTERNATIVES directory while maintainers decide which legacy projects will be added back. The list includes an automatically updating ticker of featured Claude Code projects on GitHub and a recently added section. The table of contents reflects the breadth of the collection. A Start Here section gathers entry-level material: guides to working with Claude Code, explanations of the agentic loop, CLAUDE.md writing advice, and step-by-step learning paths covering slash commands, memory, skills, subagents, MCP, hooks, plugins, and checkpoints. Several tutorials use visual diagrams, interactive annotated projects, or simplified reimplementations of an agent to teach the concepts. A From Anthropic section links official resources: the Agent Skills repository, Claude Code best-practice documentation, a cheatsheet, the Claude Code GitHub Action for CI use, an AI-powered security review action, the official plugin directory, and Anthropic engineering articles on context engineering, multi-agent research systems, and steering Claude Code with skills, hooks, rules, and subagents. Further sections cover documentation, knowledge, and learning resources, including a mirrored and searchable copy of the official docs, collections of agentic workflow patterns, system prompt breakdowns, and a guide for running Claude Code on Android. Other categories include open source software, research and scientific inquiry, providers and runtime infrastructure, remote control and notifications, alternative clients, status lines, design and UI/UX, writing quality, creative media, infrastructure and DevOps, and security. The list also catalogs agent orchestration approaches, dynamic workflows, installable skills, and memory and context persistence tools. Observability and monitoring resources are split into session monitors, usage and cost trackers, and general observability. Configuration, testing, linting, and multi-purpose tools round out the directory. Each listed project includes its author, a short description, and GitHub badges showing creation date, last commit, license, and star count. The collection is maintained as an awesome-list style repository and points to many third-party projects as well as official Anthropic resources.
