What is it?

Claude How To is a structured tutorial for Claude Code, Anthropic's terminal coding agent. It walks readers from basic slash commands through memory files (CLAUDE.md), skills, subagents, hooks, MCP servers, plugins, checkpoints, advanced features and the CLI, in a suggested order with time estimates for each module.

Each module pairs Mermaid diagrams explaining how a feature works internally with ready-to-use files: slash command Markdown, CLAUDE.md templates, skill folders, subagent definitions, hook scripts, MCP configs and plugin bundles. The guide also includes a feature catalog and self-assessment commands run inside Claude Code.

The repository is documentation and templates rather than a runtime library. It also includes Python scripts that build an EPUB version of the guide, with tests run in CI.
