Claude Code Mastery

Claude Code Mastery is a public, MIT-licensed GitHub guide and starter resource for configuring Claude Code with global and project instructions, hooks, skills, custom commands and MCP server integrations. Its repository includes templates and example workflow components, while its README also points to a separate Starter Kit and describes MDD as a separately installable package.

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when you want configuration guidance or starter files for Claude Code. Check the linked newer resources first because the repository labels its V2 guide obsolete.

Who it is for

  • Developers configuring Claude Code for project-specific workflows.
  • Claude Code users looking for examples of hooks, skills, commands and MCP server setup.

Documented uses

  • Set up global or project-level Claude Code instructions using templates.
  • Add example hooks, skills and command files to a Claude Code configuration.
  • Consult guidance on MCP integrations and project scaffolding.
  • Install the separate MDD package to access its listed structured development modes.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and identifies an MIT license.

  • The V2 guide is explicitly marked obsolete; the README points to a separate Starter Kit and also links to V3 guide material.
  • Python 3.8+ and jq are listed as prerequisites for particular hook scripts, while Claude Code is the stated prerequisite for the setup.
  • MDD is described as a separate installable package, not as an integrated feature of the repository’s configuration files.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up Claude Code hooks, skills and global instructions

Copy the repository’s documented configuration files into the Claude Code user configuration directory.

Before you start

  • Claude Code installed
  • Python 3.8+ for Python hooks
  • jq for JSON parsing in shell hooks
  • A local copy of the repository

Steps

  1. Create ~/.claude/hooks and copy the documented hook scripts there.

  2. Make the shell hook scripts executable with chmod +x.

  3. Copy templates/settings.json to ~/.claude/settings.json, or merge its hooks section into an existing settings file.

  4. Create ~/.claude/skills and copy the skills directory contents there.

  5. Copy templates/global-claude.md to ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and customize it.

Expected outcome

The documented hook scripts, skills and global instructions template are placed in the Claude Code configuration directories.

Guide limitations

  • The repository asks users to review and customize the settings template.
  • If settings.json already exists, its hooks section should be merged manually.
  • The README provides separate commands for checking loaded hooks and skills; copying files alone does not establish that they are loaded.
