Claude Code PROJECT STRUCTURE

🗂️ Claude Code, decoded — the full project structure Most people open Claude Code and dump everything into one giant CLAUDE.md. 😅 But the real power is in the structure. Here's how a clean, agent-ready repo actually looks 👇 📄 CLAUDE.md → your project's overview & config 🔒 .claude/ → where all the magic lives 📐 rules/ → coding conventions Claude actually follows ⚡ commands/ → your own /slash workflows 🧩 skills/ → auto-loaded only when relevant (keeps context light) 🤖 agents/ → specialized sub-agents with their own context 🪝 hooks/ → event-driven scripts that guard risky commands Once you get this, you stop hoping the model behaves — and start engineering how it behaves. That's the jump from "I can prompt it" to "I can direct it." 🚀 The same instinct makes you a sharper AI engineer: you learn to read, structure, and verify what the machine produces instead of trusting it blindly. Save this so your next repo starts right. 🔖 Which folder should I break down next — 🧩 skills or 🤖 agents? Drop it below 👇 . . . #HackProduct #ClaudeCode #AIengineering #coding #devtools
