Claude Code Templates: Agents, Commands, MCPs & Hooks
/claude-code-templates
Reach for Claude Code Templates if you're already using Claude Code and want a head start on agents, commands, and MCP setups instead of writing every config yourself — the catalog is broad and installs with one command. Skip it if you prefer to hand-craft a small, deliberate set of components, or if you're wary of pulling in community configs you haven't read. Treat it as a starting library, not a finished setup: the pieces are curated from many sources, and quality varies with the contributor.
Writing Every Agent and Hook From Scratch
Claude Code is configurable through agents, slash commands, hooks, settings, and MCP servers — but writing all of that yourself is slow, and it's easy to miss patterns other people have already worked out. There's no built-in marketplace, so useful configs end up scattered across gists and blog posts. This collection gathers them in one place with a consistent install path.
A Catalog of Drop-In Claude Code Configs
Claude Code templates (published on npm as claude-code-templates, browsable at aitmpl.com) is an open-source catalog of drop-in configurations for Claude Code. Instead of building your own agents, commands, and hooks from scratch, you install pre-made ones — a code-reviewer agent, a /generate-tests command, a GitHub or PostgreSQL MCP — with `npx claude-code-templates@latest`. The README also bundles CLI utilities: a real-time analytics dashboard, a conversation monitor, a health check, and a plugin dashboard.
100+ Agents, Commands, Hooks, and MCPs
- ✓Catalog of 100+ components — agents, slash commands, hooks, settings, MCP integrations, and skills — per the README
- ✓One-line install with `npx claude-code-templates@latest`, including flags to grab a specific agent, command, or MCP
- ✓Web interface at aitmpl.com to browse and pick components before installing
- ✓Ready-made MCP integrations for services like GitHub, PostgreSQL, Stripe, and AWS
- ✓Analytics dashboard (`--analytics`) that monitors Claude Code sessions in real time
- ✓Extra CLI tools: conversation monitor (`--chats`), health check (`--health-check`), and a plugin dashboard (`--plugins`)
A Browsable Catalog at aitmpl.com
The repo shows up on Trendshift, riding the broader wave of Claude Code adoption. The pitch is concrete: browse a web catalog at aitmpl.com, then install any component with a single npx line — no cloning, no manual file copying. The README also leans on its extra tooling, like a live analytics view of your Claude Code sessions, which gives people a reason to install it beyond just the templates.
Bootstrapping a Setup Instead of Starting Blank
- •Bootstrapping a new Claude Code setup with proven agents and commands instead of writing them from scratch
- •Adding an MCP integration (GitHub, PostgreSQL, Stripe) without hand-writing the config
- •Dropping in a slash command like /generate-tests or /check-security for a specific workflow
- •Monitoring your Claude Code usage with the built-in analytics dashboard
- •Running a health check to sanity-test a Claude Code installation
One npx Command, With Flags for Specific Pieces
Install nothing globally — it runs through npx. `npx claude-code-templates@latest` opens the interactive browser; add flags to grab specific pieces, e.g. `npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent development-tools/code-reviewer --yes` or `--mcp database/postgresql-integration`. The package is on npm as claude-code-templates; full docs are at docs.aitmpl.com.
Browsing Interactively or Installing by Flag
Run `npx claude-code-templates@latest` and pick components interactively, or install directly with flags like `--agent`, `--command`, `--setting`, `--hook`, or `--mcp` plus `--yes` to skip prompts. Installed components drop into your Claude Code config. Separate flags run the tools: `--analytics` for the session dashboard, `--chats` for the conversation monitor, `--health-check` for diagnostics. See docs.aitmpl.com for the component list and paths.
Faster Than Assembling Configs Yourself
- ✓One install path for a large, categorized catalog — faster than assembling configs yourself
- ✓Web browser at aitmpl.com makes it easy to see what's available before installing
- ✓Covers the full range of Claude Code extension points: agents, commands, hooks, settings, MCPs, skills
- ✓MIT licensed, so you can read, fork, and adapt any component
- ✓Bundled analytics and health-check tools add value beyond the templates themselves
Community-Curated Means Uneven Quality
- △It's a collection of configs, not a standalone app — everything here only works if you already use Anthropic's Claude Code
- △Components are curated from many third-party sources (per the README's attribution list), so quality and maintenance vary by contributor
- △You're installing config you may not have read; treat pulled-in agents and hooks with the same caution as any third-party code
- △The catalog and dashboard (aitmpl.com) are the project's own hosted surfaces — the README marks the dashboard as beta
- △No offline package to vendor: install runs through npx against the latest published version

Who Should Pull From This Catalog
Developers already using Claude Code who want a running start — grab a code-reviewer agent, a testing command, or a database MCP in one line rather than writing each config. Less useful if you run a small, deliberately hand-tuned setup, or if you won't install community components without reading them first. It's a library to pull from, not a curated final loadout.
Claude Code Templates Questions, Answered
Claude Code Templates is an open-source collection of ready-to-use components for Anthropic's Claude Code — AI agents, slash commands, hooks, settings, and MCP integrations — that you install with a single npx command. You browse the catalog at aitmpl.com.
Run `npx claude-code-templates@latest` for the interactive browser, or install a specific component directly, e.g. `npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent development-tools/code-reviewer --yes`. Nothing is installed globally; it runs through npx.
Yes. It's MIT licensed and published on npm. The components it bundles come from multiple sources, each keeping its own original license as listed in the README's attribution section.
No. It's a collection of configurations for Anthropic's Claude Code, so the agents, commands, and hooks only do anything inside a Claude Code setup.
MCPs are external service integrations (Model Context Protocol servers). The catalog includes ready-made ones for GitHub, PostgreSQL, Stripe, AWS, and more, installable with the `--mcp` flag.
