TL;DR: Clone, copy to ~/.claude/, restart Claude Code. You get global rules, hooks, agents, and skills that apply to every project. Read the Core Guide next to understand what each piece does.

If you are new to this repo, read this first.

This repository is a curated mirror of my global Claude setup in ~/.claude/.

Use this page as your entry point, then follow the reading path below.

• Global rules, hooks, agents, skills, and settings used across projects.
• Governance docs for ongoing review and drift control.
• Documentation-first mirror of the setup, not a dump of local runtime state.

• A project-local .claude replacement.
• A place for generated logs or temporary machine-specific files.
• A full snapshot of everything in ~/.claude at all times.

1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/stuartshields/claude-setup.git
2. Copy the contents to your global Claude directory: cp -r claude-setup/. ~/.claude/
3. Restart Claude Code.
4. Open any project and confirm your global rules/hooks/agents are active.
