project-kit

Say "new project". Get a perfectly-prepared project folder.

project-kit is a self-contained bootstrap system for Claude Code. Tell any session — local or cloud — "neues Projekt" / "new project" / "let's build X" and it runs one disciplined flow:

Grills the plan to a full Definition of Ready (the most important moment of a project) — one question at a time, each with a recommended answer, never building blind.
Routes the answers to the matching type sub-skills (and stacks several for hybrid projects).
Checks the environment — missing tools/CLIs get an install offer; missing keys/logins get a request. Never auto-installs, never invents credentials.
Auto-picks the file & memory structure by project type and size (you're never asked "how many files").
Generates the project's own sub-agents before any task starts.
Scaffolds + fills the folder, seeds memory, and (optionally) sets up the repo.

No more going through a setup conversation by hand every time. The process is the repo.

Install

Option A — as a Claude Code plugin (recommended: download & wire in two lines)

/plugin marketplace add Skryx-L-A/project-kit
/plugin install project-kit@project-kit

That clones the repo as a marketplace and wires all skills (and the new-project orchestrator) into Claude automatically — nothing to symlink. Update later with /plugin marketplace update project-kit; remove with /plugin uninstall project-kit.

Option B — script install (no plugin system / dev use)

git clone https://github.com/Skryx-L-A/project-kit ~/AI/project-kit   # or wherever
cd ~/AI/project-kit && ./install.sh

Symlinks every skill into ~/.claude/skills/ (repo stays the single source of truth) and links the project-kit CLI. --copy to copy instead, --force to overwrite, --no-claude-md to skip the optional global trigger entry, --uninstall to remove.

Use one install path, not both — the plugin and the symlinks would otherwise register the same skills twice. If you installed via install.sh and switch to the plugin, run ./install.sh --uninstall first.

Use

Just tell Claude:

neues Projekt — ich will <X> bauen

…and let it grill + scaffold. Or use the manual CLI fallback:

project-kit new --name "My Thing" --tier standard --git
project-kit list      # show the type sub-skills

The sub-skills

22 type sub-skills + a generic fallback: build-business (the 7-day business ultraskill) · website · saas · api-backend · data-ml · quant-strategy · cli-tool · desktop-app · mobile-app · browser-extension · bot-automation · ai-agent-mcp · oss-library · game-mod · game-dev · llm-app · hardware-embedded · creative-media · simulation · ecommerce-store · research-decision · content-writing · generic-project (fallback for anything else).

Operational / capability skills (ongoing operations — compose into a project or trigger standalone): agency-automations (the running delivery layer for build-business — webhooks, SMS/email sequences, booking, review automation, compliance-enforced) · social-media-manager (autonomously runs socials — ads, posts, subreddits/Reddit, scheduling, engagement, behind an approval gate) · email-manager (autonomous inbox — triage, drafting, summarizing, customer support; draft-first with a send gate, via the Gmail MCP).

Projects are composable — a SaaS that must make money pulls saas + website + api-backend + build-business.

Per-project structure it produces

The user's proven system, scaled to project size: CLAUDE.md (lean, auto-loaded) · PROJEKT_<NAME>.md (the bible = filled Definition of Ready) · TASKS.md · DONE.md · README.md · .claude/ (hooks + project sub-agents); STATUS.md + DEPLOYMENT.md for large projects; type-specific assets on top.

Memory & privacy

Private/durable facts → harness auto-memory (outside any repo). Shareable facts → the in-repo bible. Personal/secret data is .gitignored and never committed — safe for public repos.

Extensible by design

New project types, skills, ultra-skills, and agents drop in anytime — see docs/EXTENDING.md. Architecture: docs/ARCHITECTURE.md.

Credits & honesty

The build-business ultraskill operationalises the framework from JP Middleton's "How to start a 1-person business using Claude in 7 days" and merges public founder/startup skill repos (credited in skills/build-business/merged/SOURCES.md). Marketing/revenue claims from the source are flagged as unverified throughout.

MIT licensed. Built in the open so anyone can clone and use it.
