Claude Code Setup Evaluator

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-setup-evaluator/
  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-setup-evaluator.git
cd claude-code-setup-evaluator
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.

Skill	What it does
security-check	Detects credential leaks, insecure patterns, LLM-specific risks
python-conventions	Dotenv conventions, API client rules, TDD workflow
data-pipeline-patterns	Pipeline stage design, validation, circuit breakers
refactoring-patterns	Measurement-driven refactoring with before/after metrics
verification-loop	Powers /verify, /quality-gate
brainstorming	Design exploration before implementation

Commands (you trigger these)

Command	When to use	What it does
/verify	After coding	Check types, lint, tests
/quality-gate	Before git push	Tests + secret scan
/refactor-safe	After review	Refactor without changing public API
/test-coverage	Adding tests	Find untested code, generate tests
/diff-explain	Reviewing changes	Explain by intent, not file count
/explain-code	Unfamiliar code	Layered explanation scaled to complexity
/explain-simple	Non-technical audience	Plain language, no jargon
/prompt-test	Editing LLM prompts	Test against samples, catch regressions
/ai-engineer-review	Architecture check	Brutally honest review
/architecture-docs	Documentation	Architecture docs with Mermaid diagrams
/env-check	Something broke	Validate environment setup
/recap	End of session	Summarize for standup
/focus	Switch repos	Pick repos from a list
/toolkit	Discovery	See everything available

Hooks (automatic safety nets)

Hook	What it does
Session start	Reports git status of all your repos
Secret scan	Blocks git commit/push if API keys detected in tracked files
Skill suggestion	Reminds 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.
