Claude Kit is an open-source toolkit that transforms Claude Code into a production-ready AI development team. It provides pre-built commands, intelligent modes, and battle-tested skills that accelerate your development workflow.

What is Claude Kit?

Section titled “What is Claude Kit?”

Claude Kit is a collection of:

  • 27+ Commands — Slash commands like /feature, /fix, /review that automate development workflows
  • 7 Modes — Behavioral configurations that optimize Claude for specific tasks (brainstorming, implementation, review, etc.)
