Guidance on how to use Claude Code effectively — covering context management, verification strategies, the explore-plan-implement workflow, prompting techniques, session management, parallel sessions, and common failure patterns. Use this skill whenever the user asks how to get the most out of Claude Code, how to write better prompts, how to manage context, when to use plan mode, how to automate tasks, or when they describe a frustrating pattern like Claude repeating mistakes or losing track…
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 Best Practices Based on the official Anthropic documentation at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/best-practices. The single most important constraint: **Claude's context window fills up fast, and performance degrades as it fills.** Every best practice flows from this. --- ## Instructions ### Step 1: Always give Claude a way to verify its work Provide a runnable check (test suite, build exit code, linter, diff script) so Claude can confirm success independently. Ask for **evidence** (test output, command result), not just assertions. ### Step 2: Use the Explore → Plan → Implement workflow for non-trivial tasks Enter `/plan` mode, let Claude read the codebase first, then draft a plan before writing any code. Exit plan mode to implement. Skip this only for small, obvious changes. ### Step 3: Write specific, scoped prompts Name files (`@filename`), describe symptoms rather than guesses, reference existing patterns. Vague prompts produce vague results. ### Step 4: Keep CLAUDE.md short and actionable Include only what Claude cannot infer from the code. Every line should answer: "Would removing this cause Claude to make mistakes?" If not — cut it. …

How to install
mdr add aiskillstore/marketplace/cc-best-practices@sha256:35013f32001903c6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.e12cead, 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.
