One built in, two Anthropic plugins, prompts by Jason Rivard

Maximize your Claude Code with three skills worth installing, and a prompt for each.

/statusline is already in Claude Code. /skill-creator and /claude-md-improver are Anthropic plugins, one install line each. Every skill below comes with the prompt Jason runs with it, pointed at your own session history or your own CLAUDE.md and ready to copy.

The four prompts, the two install lines, and where each skill writes on your disk.

The download is free. What we sell is at the bottom of the page, with prices.

What you will have when you finish

Two skills installed, one built-in skill put to work, and four prompts sent in your own Claude Code.

  • /skill-creator and /claude-md-improver installed from Anthropic's official plugin marketplace
  • Jason's /statusline prompt run on your own sessions, with any status line script it writes saved in ~/.claude/
  • Skill ideas drawn from one project's session history, from /skill-creator
  • A quality report on a project CLAUDE.md, with every proposed change shown as a diff for your OK
  • The same audit on your global ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md

Six steps, in the reel's order

Number three first, number one last. Two of the six steps are install lines; the other four carry Jason's prompts.

Claude Code. /statusline is built in. The other two skills install from inside a Claude Code session with the /plugin command.

  1. 01

    Number three: /statusline. It is built into Claude Code, so there is nothing to install. You describe what you want in plain words, and Claude Code writes a script file in ~/.claude/ and updates your settings. The status line shows in its own row above the built-in footer badges, which stay where they are.

    Status line, in the Claude Code docs

    Send in Claude Code

    /statusline identify the 3 highest impact UX changes we can make based on session transcripts and my model correction and steering patterns

    Your part: read what it proposes before you approve a change. This prompt asks for more than a status bar: it has Claude Code look at how you correct and steer the model and propose status line changes from that. In the reel, Claude Code gave it to a background agent that finished in 2 minutes 11 seconds. What comes back depends on your sessions.

  2. 02

    Number two: /skill-creator. It comes from the skill-creator plugin in Anthropic's official marketplace. Claude Code adds that marketplace for you the first time you start an interactive terminal session, so one line installs it.

    skill-creator on GitHub, by Anthropic

    Send in Claude Code

    /plugin install skill-creator@claude-plugins-official

    Your part: send the line and approve anything Claude Code asks. In VS Code, if the plugin is not found, add anthropics/claude-plugins-official on the Marketplaces tab first.

  3. 03

    Run /skill-creator from inside a project. Jason uses it for any workflow that comes down to the same series of actions, repeated over and over. His prompt has it read this project's session transcripts on disk and name the patterns where a skill would save time, improve accuracy or improve outcomes against the project's goal.

    Send in Claude Code

    /skill-creator search the session transcripts on disk for this project's history and identify the patterns which emerge that demonstrate a specific skill will save the user time, improve accuracy of work, or enhance outcomes relative to the project's goal

    Your part: open Claude Code in the project you want it to study, then decide which of the skills it suggests are worth building. Transcripts are kept 30 days by default, so it reads about the last month. If the short name clashes with another command, use /skill-creator:skill-creator.

  4. 04

    Number one: the CLAUDE.md improver. /claude-md-improver is a skill in Anthropic's claude-md-management plugin, from the same marketplace. It scans for CLAUDE.md files, evaluates them against templates, writes a quality report, then makes targeted updates. It asks for confirmation before it updates anything.

    claude-md-management on GitHub, by Anthropic

    Send in Claude Code

    /plugin install claude-md-management@claude-plugins-official

    Your part: send the line and approve anything Claude Code asks. The plugin is named claude-md-management; the skill inside it is claude-md-improver.

  5. 05

    Run it in a project first. Project level means ./CLAUDE.md or ./.claude/CLAUDE.md in that repo. The parts in angle brackets are yours to fill in before you send it: the file to audit, who you are, your goals in order, and what done means for your work.

    Fill in the angle brackets, then send in Claude Code

    /claude-md-improver Audit <path to CLAUDE.md, or "this repo">.
    
    Context the file should serve:
    - Who I am: <role, company legal name, clients>
    - My goals, in priority order: <1) ... 2) ... 3) ...>
    - What "done" means for my work: <e.g. seen running, rendered, deployed>
    
    How to audit:
    1. Check every path, command, skill, plugin, hook and tool the file names against the
       real system (filesystem, settings.json, enabled plugins, PATH). Flag anything dead.
    2. Find rules that sit at the wrong level: global rules that only fit some repos, and
       repo rules repeated globally.
    3. Check memory files and files the CLAUDE.md links to (commands, sibling CLAUDE.md
       files) for facts that contradict it.
    4. Tell me what the file is missing for my goals above, not only what's wrong with it.
    
    Rules for changes:
    - Back up the file before editing.
    - Show every change as a diff and wait for my OK.
    - You may fix files that directly depend on a change (commands, memories). List each one.
    - Don't commit. Leave third-party and plugin-managed files alone; report their issues.
    - Keep the file as short as or shorter than it is now, unless a line adds what my goals need.

    Your part: replace every <...> with your own details, and leave none in. The prompt tells it to back up the file, show each change as a diff, wait for your OK and not commit. If the short name clashes with another command, use /claude-md-management:claude-md-improver.

  6. 06

    Then run it at the global level. That is ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, the file in your root Claude Code folder (on Windows, %USERPROFILE%\.claude\CLAUDE.md). Claude Code reads it in every project, together with that project's own CLAUDE.md: the files are added to each other, and neither one overrides the other.

    CLAUDE.md levels, in the Claude Code docs

    Fill in the angle brackets, then send in Claude Code

    /claude-md-improver Audit ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md.
    
    Context the file should serve:
    - Who I am: <role, company legal name, clients>
    - My goals, in priority order: <1) ... 2) ... 3) ...>
    - What "done" means for my work: <e.g. seen running, rendered, deployed>
    
    How to audit:
    1. Check every path, command, skill, plugin, hook and tool the file names against the
       real system (filesystem, settings.json, enabled plugins, PATH). Flag anything dead.
    2. Find rules that sit at the wrong level: global rules that only fit some repos, and
       repo rules repeated globally.
    3. Check memory files and files the CLAUDE.md links to (commands, sibling CLAUDE.md
       files) for facts that contradict it.
    4. Tell me what the file is missing for my goals above, not only what's wrong with it.
    
    Rules for changes:
    - Back up the file before editing.
    - Show every change as a diff and wait for my OK.
    - You may fix files that directly depend on a change (commands, memories). List each one.
    - Don't commit. Leave third-party and plugin-managed files alone; report their issues.
    - Keep the file as short as or shorter than it is now, unless a line adds what my goals need.

    Your part: fill in the same placeholders. Point 2 of the audit matters most at this level: it looks for global rules that only fit some repos, and repo rules repeated globally.

Install lines, skill names and file locations were checked against Anthropic's Claude Code docs and the claude-plugins-official repository on GitHub on 13 November 2026. The prompts are Jason's. The global run is his CLAUDE.md prompt with the path filled in.

The specifics

From Anthropic's Claude Code docs and the plugins' pages on GitHub, read 13 November 2026.

Built in or plugin
/statusline is built into Claude Code. /skill-creator and /claude-md-improver each come from a plugin you install.
Made by
Anthropic makes all three, and both plugins sit in its official marketplace. GraniteAi made none of them; the prompts are Jason's.
Where the status line lives
/statusline writes a script file in ~/.claude/ and updates your settings. It shows in its own row above the footer badges.
Where CLAUDE.md lives
Project: ./CLAUDE.md or ./.claude/CLAUDE.md. Global: ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. Claude Code loads both, one added to the other.
Session history
Transcripts are .jsonl files in ~/.claude/projects/, kept 30 days by default, so these prompts see about the last month.
Checked against
Anthropic's Claude Code docs and the claude-plugins-official repository on GitHub, read 13 November 2026.

Questions people ask

  • Will the CLAUDE.md improver change my file without asking?

    The plugin says it asks for confirmation before updating. Jason's prompt adds its own rules on top: back up the file, show every change as a diff, wait for your OK, and do not commit.

  • Does this upload my old chats?

    The transcript files stay in ~/.claude/projects/ on your disk. What Claude Code reads from them becomes part of the session you are in, the same as any other file it opens for you.

  • Does this work in VS Code?

    The plugin docs cover VS Code. There, you may need to add anthropics/claude-plugins-official on the Marketplaces tab before the install lines work. The steps on this page follow the terminal, and we have not tested them in VS Code.

  • What if /skill-creator or /claude-md-improver does nothing?

    Check that the plugin installed, then try the full name: /skill-creator:skill-creator or /claude-md-management:claude-md-improver. The short form stops working when another command already uses that name.

The readiness audit, done for you

Price: $349One week

Send us access to your repo. We run the nine-lane review, change nothing, and hand back the report with a 30 minute call on the three gaps to close first.

You have a product you charge for, or want to, and you would rather read the verdict than run the agents.

  • The report at docs/commercial-readiness.md: a verdict, a scorecard, every gap with the file to open and how to verify it
  • Legal, security, billing, support, marketing, operations and the rest, checked at once
  • A 30 minute call on the three gaps to close first
  • Nothing in your repo changed. The workflow prompt is yours to run afterward

The review is the one in the video. On our own product it found 87 gaps. The overnight run that followed was 148 commits and one pull request.

If the review finds no gap worth your time, you pay nothing.

The guided first run

Price: $9960 minutes

We run the review on your repo together, on a call, and you leave with the report in your repo and the three gaps to close first.

You have the kit and a repo, and you would rather do the first run with someone who has done it.

  • The review running on your machine, in your Claude Code
  • The verdict read together, and the three gaps picked
  • The workflow prompt set up so you can run it that night
  • The call recording

New. You would be one of the first. The run itself is the one in the video: 190 agents, 148 commits, one pull request.

If the review will not run on your setup during the call, there is no charge.
