Claude Skills Collection

AI reflects what's expressed, not what's true.

Professional development workflow extensions for Claude Code. Make Claude more thorough, accurate, and productive across Python, shell, Perl, CI/CD, and AI tooling.

What Problem Does This Solve?

Without plugins	With plugins
Claude gives generic Python advice	Claude applies Python 3.11+, Typer, Rich, httpx conventions specific to your stack
Claude says "done" before linters pass	Holistic-linting enforces root-cause fixes before any task completes
Claude speculates and hallucinates	Hallucination-detector blocks completion on ungrounded claims
Claude jumps to solutions without investigating	Verification-gate forces evidence gathering before action
Session transcripts disappear with no learning	Agentskill-kaizen mines transcripts for anti-patterns and generates skill patches
Commit messages are inconsistent	Conventional-commits enforces feat/fix/chore format for semantic versioning

Quick Start

# Add the marketplace (one-time setup)
/plugin marketplace add Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills

# Install a plugin
/plugin install plugin-name@jamie-bitflight-skills

Verify Installation

Start a new session and ask Claude to perform a task the plugin handles (for example, write a Python function after installing python3-development). Claude should automatically apply the plugin's conventions rather than generic defaults.

Available Plugins

Full-Featured Development Systems

Comprehensive frameworks with multiple skills, commands, and specialized agents.

Plugin	What It Does
python3-development	Transform Claude into a Python 3.11+ expert with 15+ commands, TDD workflows, modern library selection (Typer, Rich, httpx), and SAM methodology for feature development
bash-development	Write robust Bash 5.1+ scripts with modern patterns, error handling, POSIX portability, and specialized agents for development and auditing
perl-development	Build production-quality Perl 5.30+ scripts with modern practices, CPAN ecosystem integration, comprehensive testing, and CLI architecture
plugin-creator	Complete toolkit for creating, refactoring, and validating Claude Code plugins with 6 specialized agents and systematic workflows
uv	Expert guidance for Astral's uv — the fast Python package manager that replaces pip, poetry, pyenv, and virtualenv with modern lockfiles
clang-format	Configure clang-format to match your existing C/C++ code style by analyzing patterns and showing impact before changes
holistic-linting	Automatic code quality enforcement — Claude won't say "done" until code passes all configured linters with root-cause fixing
summarizer	Faithful information summarization with anti-hallucination methodology, structured output templates, and autonomous agents
agentskill-kaizen	Analyze Claude Code session transcripts to find inefficiencies, anti-patterns, and repeated mistakes with DuckDB process-mining and live sentiment dashboard
dasel	Query, transform, and convert structured data files (JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, CSV) using dasel v3 with enterprise XML support and exploration agents
development-harness	Language-agnostic development process harness implementing the SAM 7-stage pipeline with planning, verification, and testing methodology
the-rewrite-room	Documentation workflow router — routes tasks like drift audits, doc sync, prompt optimization, and summarization to canonical workflows with validation

Lightweight Knowledge Clip-Ins

Focused plugins that teach Claude specific conventions or tools without heavy workflows.

Python and Package Management

Plugin	What It Does
litellm	Call any LLM API (OpenAI/Anthropic/local) from Python with unified interface and retry logic
llamafile	Run local GGUF models with OpenAI-compatible API for offline/air-gapped inference
xdg-base-directory	Store config and data files in correct XDG-compliant directories using platformdirs

Git and CI/CD

Plugin	What It Does
conventional-commits	Write consistent commit messages (feat/fix/chore) for semantic versioning and changelog generation
commitlint	Configure and validate commit messages against commitlint rules for CI/CD enforcement
gitlab-skill	Write GitLab CI pipelines and GLFM documentation with local testing before pushing

AI and LLM Tools

Plugin	What It Does
fastmcp-creator	Build production-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers with FastMCP framework and agent-centric design patterns
prompt-optimization-claude-45	Optimize CLAUDE.md and skills using Anthropic's best practices — transforms negative rules into positive patterns

Better Claude Behavior

Plugin	What It Does
agent-orchestration	Makes Claude more thorough on complex tasks by investigating root causes and verifying work actually functions
verification-gate	Forces Claude to investigate before acting, preventing correct diagnosis with wrong implementation
hallucination-detector	Blocks task completion when Claude speculates or makes ungrounded claims, forcing evidence-first rewrites
brainstorming-skill	Significantly improves brainstorming with 30+ research-validated prompt patterns across 14 categories
orchestrator-discipline	Prevents orchestrator context window bloat via PreToolUse hooks — blocks file reads without edits, diagnostic commands that should be delegated

How Plugins Work

Plugins contain:

• Skills — Knowledge and workflows that guide Claude's behavior
• Commands — Slash commands you can invoke directly (like /lint or /modernpython)
• Agents — Specialized sub-agents for complex tasks (like code review or architecture design)
• Hooks — Automation that runs at specific lifecycle events

Once installed, plugins work automatically. Claude knows when to apply them based on your project context.

Local Development

# Option 1: Load specific plugins for this session
claude --plugin-dir ./plugins/python3-development --plugin-dir ./plugins/holistic-linting

# Option 2: Add local marketplace for persistent enable/disable
/plugin marketplace add ./.claude-plugin/marketplace.json

# Install plugins you need (--scope local keeps it gitignored)
/plugin install python3-development@jamie-bitflight-skills --scope local

# Disable when not needed
/plugin disable python3-development@jamie-bitflight-skills

# Re-enable when needed
/plugin enable python3-development@jamie-bitflight-skills

Workshops

The workshops/ directory contains hands-on workshop materials for teaching AI-assisted development in specific domains:

• Embedded Engineers (Claude) — 1-hour workshop covering skills, agents, and orchestration for firmware development with MISRA-C, FreeRTOS, and Zigbee patterns
• Embedded Engineers (Cursor) — Equivalent workshop adapted for Cursor with custom agents and embedded skills

Troubleshooting

Plugin commands not found after install?

Restart Claude Code to reload commands. Verify the plugin installed:

/plugin list

Plugin not influencing Claude's behavior?

Check that the plugin is enabled and not scoped to a different project:

/plugin list --all

Want to test a plugin before committing to it?

Use --scope local when installing. This keeps the plugin active only in your current project and gitignored.

Something broken after an update?

Reinstall the specific plugin:

/plugin install plugin-name@jamie-bitflight-skills
