What is it?

Claude Quickstarts is a set of example projects that show how to build applications on the Claude API. Each quickstart is meant to be a starting point you can run, read and then adapt to your own needs. They require a Claude API key to run.

The collection covers several areas. It includes a customer support agent that uses a knowledge base, a financial data analyst that visualizes data through chat, and a browser automation demo built on a Playwright-backed tool. It also has computer-use examples for controlling a desktop, including a containerized demo and a native macOS reference implementation, along with minimal Chrome DevTools Protocol and VNC examples for Claude's browser and computer toolsets.

A large part of the repository focuses on Claude Managed Agents. Examples include a Slack bot, a Linear agent, a scheduled daily brief agent, a Sentry triage agent, an MCP server that exposes the Sessions API, and a Next.js road trip planner that demonstrates streaming and multi-agent coordination.
