Authoritative reference for how Claude Code itself works AND how to build for it — CLAUDE.md memory, custom slash commands, subagents, skills, hooks, MCP servers, settings precedence, permissions, plan mode, CLI/headless/CI, worktrees, and multi-platform surfaces. Use when authoring or debugging a plugin component (command/agent/skill/hook), wiring an MCP server, choosing frontmatter fields, configuring settings.json or permissions, figuring out why an agent/skill won't auto-trigger, running…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Claude Code Framework — Reference & Decision Guide

Authoritative reference for Claude Code's behavior and for authoring its extensions.
Ground every claim to current behavior at <https://code.claude.com/docs>. Model IDs,
pricing, and "as of version X" specifics rot — re-verify against live docs before relying
on them. This file is the index; depth lives in the linked reference files.

## CORE OPERATING RULES

Apply these directly when working *with* Claude Code on real tasks:

1. **Plan before code on anything non-trivial.** Use Plan Mode (or a written plan) to agree
   on approach before edits. Discussion-then-code catches wrong turns cheaply.
2. **Keep CLAUDE.md lean and failure-focused.** Document what Claude gets *wrong* in this
   repo (build quirks, forbidden paths, naming rules), not what it does right. ~100–200
   lines; past ~40k chars Claude Code warns performance degrades — move depth into
   skills/docs and link them.
3. **Clear context aggressively.** `/clear` between unrelated tasks; provide only files
   relevant to the current task. Don't let one session accumulate stale context.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nxtg-ai/forge-plugin/Claude Code Framework@sha256:8f2619af313637a4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260715.857b62e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
