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 System Prompts

## What this repository is

System prompts extracted via script from the Claude Code npm package's compiled JavaScript source. Maintained by [Piebald AI](https://piebald.ai/), not by Anthropic.

See the [Extraction section in README.md](./README.md#extraction) for details on the extraction method.

## What Claude Code is

Claude Code is Anthropic's CLI tool for agentic coding. It is distributed as a compiled npm package (`@anthropic-ai/claude-code`). Source code is not publicly available. The [anthropics/claude-code](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code) GitHub repository contains issues and releases only.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add piebald-ai/claude-code-system-prompts/CLAUDE.md@sha256:6fb0cae37ab2386d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260209.dd0f623, 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.
