User asks for design, planning, or approach exploration before implementation. Covers new features, components, refactors, or architecture decisions. Creates design docs and proposes approaches with trade-offs.

Choose how to use this skill

You do not need every option. Choose the path your AI client supports. The stable page stays the same; versioned files are immutable.

1. Native installer

This listing has no registered native installer command. Use the complete package or source fallback below, depending on what your client supports.

Do not guess an installer command or replace an existing version without reviewing the diff.

2. Complete package recommended

Download the ZIP when available. It includes SKILL.md plus the references, security notes and version metadata.

No complete ProSkills package is published for this listing yet.

3. Prompt-only

Copy the prompt above when the agent can read the stable page or when you want to adopt the workflow without installing a skill.

Need only the instruction file?

Download SKILL.md only if your client requires a single file. The complete ZIP is safer for a full installation because it preserves the references and release context.

No path installs or executes anything by itself. Your agent still needs access to the project files. Before updating, compare the installed version and review the diff.

Claude Code Basecamp

A workspace for Claude Code users who work across multiple repositories. Clone your repos, get shared skills and commands out of the box, add your own.

How It Works

This is a meta-workspace. You clone your project repositories into the repositories/ folder and run Claude Code from the workspace root. Claude automatically gets access to all skills and commands. Your repos stay independent — they push to their own remotes, the workspace never touches them.

claude-code-basecamp/
  repositories/           # Clone your repos here (gitignored — yours, not shared)
    my-api/
    frontend/
    data-pipeline/
  skills/                 # AI skills — activate automatically when relevant
  commands/               # Slash commands — you trigger with /command
  .claude/                # Claude Code hooks and config

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/redhat-community-ai-tools/claude-code-basecamp.git
cd claude-code-basecamp
uv sync
uv run .ai-workspace/scripts/setup.py

# Clone your repos
cd repositories/
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd ..

# Start working
claude

Tell Claude which repo to focus on — "I'm working on my-api" or type /focus to pick from a list. Skills activate automatically. Commands are there when you need them.

What You Get

Skills (activate automatically)

Skills are knowledge that Claude carries in the background. You don't trigger them — they activate when relevant to what you're doing.

SkillWhat it does
security-checkDetects credential leaks, insecure patterns, LLM-specific risks
python-patternsDotenv conventions, API clients, LLM parsing, testing, and pipelines
refactoring-patternsMeasurement-driven refactoring with before/after metrics
verification-loopPowers /verify, /quality-gate (invoked on demand)
brainstormingDesign exploration before implementation

Commands (you trigger these)

CommandWhen to useWhat it does
/verifyAfter codingCheck types, lint, tests
/quality-gateBefore git pushTests + secret scan
/refactor-safeAfter reviewRefactor without changing public API
/test-coverageAdding testsFind untested code, generate tests
/diff-explainReviewing changesExplain by intent, not file count
/explain-codeUnfamiliar codeLayered explanation scaled to complexity
/explain-simpleNon-technical audiencePlain language, no jargon
/prompt-testEditing LLM promptsTest against samples, catch regressions
/ai-engineer-reviewArchitecture checkBrutally honest review
/architecture-docsDocumentationArchitecture docs with Mermaid diagrams
/env-checkSomething brokeValidate environment setup
/recapEnd of sessionSummarize for standup
/focusSwitch reposPick repos from a list
/changelogBefore a releaseGenerate changelog grouped by intent
/dep-checkPeriodic auditCheck unused deps, outdated versions, vulnerabilities
/toolkitDiscoverySee everything available

Hooks (automatic safety nets)

HookWhat it does
Session startReports git status of all your repos
Secret scanBlocks git commit/push if API keys detected in tracked files
Commit size guardWarns if staged diff exceeds 500 lines, suggests splitting
Skill suggestionReminds Claude which skills are relevant to files you're editing

Adding Your Own Skills and Commands

You can extend the workspace with your own skills and commands:

  • Add a skill — Create a folder in skills/ with a SKILL.md file. Claude picks it up automatically.
  • Add a command — Create a folder in commands/ with a command.md file. It becomes a /command you can type.

After adding, Claude picks them up automatically.
