What is it?
Awesome Claude Code is an curated list of resources built around Claude Code, Anthropic's command-line coding agent. Entries are grouped by theme, including beginner guides, official Anthropic material, skills, subagent orchestration, hooks, MCP integrations, status lines, testing, security, observability and alternative clients.
The list covers both official material, such as Anthropic's best-practices guide, the Agent Skills repository and the GitHub Action for running Claude Code in CI, and third-party projects. Each entry has a short description, and the list points to related guides and essays on writing CLAUDE.md files and designing agent workflows.
The list is aimed at developers who already use Claude Code and want to find extensions, or at newcomers who need a structured starting point. Some older entries have moved to a separate alternatives directory and are no longer updated.
