Claude resources
A working repo to enhance Claude, save tokens, and learn to use it well. Every resource here is checked against official, up to date docs.
New to Claude? Start here. These cards cover how to extend Claude with skills and connectors, how to spend fewer tokens, and how to give it enough context that the output sounds like you rather than generic AI. A short, vetted reading list sits at the foot of the page. Tap any card to open it.
A skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file that Claude loads only when a task calls for it. It teaches Claude a repeatable job (building slides, trimming tokens, following a house design style) without taking up space in every conversation. You add one by pointing Claude at the folder.
Find them in a public skills directory or on GitHub. Read the SKILL.md first and check the source before installing, because a skill runs with your permissions.

MCP servers and connectors link Claude to Drive, Gmail, Calendar, GitHub and Slack. See code.claude.com/docs and docs.claude.com.
Drive Figma Desktop through its built in DevTools with a community CLI, no API key. Read: Into Design Systems. Tool: silships/figma-cli. It is third party and work in progress, so vet it before running.
A library of DESIGN.md specs you can hand Claude: styles.refero.design. Or write your own so the output builds to your system, not a generic one.
A CLAUDE.md in your repo gives Claude your patterns and rules, so first pass output is on brand instead of generic.
Terminal only. The slash commands on this card, such as /compact, /cost and /usage, are Claude Code commands you run in the terminal. They do not work in the Claude web or desktop chat.
Use /compact to compress a long session, /context to see what is filling the window, and /clear to reset. Full list in the Claude Code slash commands reference.
The Caveman skill has Claude reply in a terse, compressed style that cuts token use by about 75 percent while keeping technical accuracy. It is community made (MIT licensed, actively maintained), so read the source before installing.
Haiku for simple and fast, Sonnet for the everyday default, Opus for hard reasoning, Fable 5 for the ceiling. Using the smallest model that works is the biggest saving. Anthropic's guide to choosing a model breaks down the trade offs.
Each revision optimises from the model's own previous output and converges on the generic, so you burn tokens getting further from distinctive, not closer. Start fresh for original work. See the read on AI design convergence.
/cost shows the current session cost (aimed at API usage, not Pro and Max plans), and /usage checks usage against plan limits. See the cost tracking docs.
/batch runs changes across worktrees and subagents (/agents) split work, which avoids re running the same context.
Each of these is a copy and paste prompt built on a well known way of working through a problem. Used properly, Claude asks questions and challenges your reasoning instead of agreeing. Each is a small markdown file you can download and reuse.
Each tool connects to Claude in one of five ways: a direct API call, an MCP connector, a plugin, a skill, or an automation platform. You do not need any of these to begin. They are grouped below by how they connect. Each name links out to the tool, and the tag shows how it is priced.
Claude Code is the version of Claude that runs in your terminal and can read and edit your files. The commands below are its slash commands, the typed shortcuts like /init or /compact that control a session.
They are grouped by the job they do. Expand any group to see the commands inside it.
Where this command list comes from, the corrections made to it, and what the confirmed and unverified marks mean.
xhigh. Real levels: low, medium, high, xhigh, max.Cross checked against Anthropic's official Claude Code docs and several independent June 2026 references. Over 60 built in commands plus bundled skills are confirmed.
A red dot means the item is plausible but was not independently confirmed, so availability varies by version, plan and platform. Type / in your own build to confirm.
A short, deliberately strict reading list. Everything here is free, kept current, and comes either from the people who build Claude or from independent experts worth the time. It is the opposite of the one shot threads and quick guide posts written to farm engagement.
