Claude Code config

Portable Claude Code customizations, synced via these dots. Claude Code still uses its default ~/.claude/ directory; we surface the tracked files below into it via per-file/dir symlinks, so edits made through Claude write straight back into this repo.

What's tracked here

settings.json — global settings: permissions (deny git commit/push + read of secret files), default model, enabledPlugins, vim mode, dark theme, effortLevel, fullscreen TUI, statusLine, hooks, worktree defaults, …
statusline.py — rich status line (dir, git, model, context %, cost, disk — system metrics live in the tmux bar). See StatusBar.md for what each segment and colour means.
keybindings.json — custom keybindings (vim-style scroll/navigation).
CLAUDE.md — global user preferences applied to every project.
hooks/format.py — PostToolUse hook: formats edited files by extension (stylua / ruff / prettier / gofmt / rustfmt / fish_indent / shfmt / taplo). Opinionated formatters (stylua, ruff, prettier, taplo) only run where the project opts in via a config file found walking up; gofmt and rustfmt gate on a project marker (go.mod / Cargo.toml); fish_indent and shfmt run on sight. No-ops if the formatter isn't installed, and always exits 0.
skills/ — custom Agent Skills. See Skills below.
link.sh — idempotent bootstrap that creates the ~/.claude symlinks below.

Paths inside settings.json reference ~/.claude/... via $HOME/PATH (/usr/bin/env python3 ~/.claude/...), so they work regardless of the username, python location, or where the dots repo is cloned (~/.dots, …).

What is not tracked (stays local, per device)

Everything else under ~/.claude/ is machine-specific or secret and must never be committed: credentials (.credentials.json), session history, projects/ (transcripts + memory), caches, and the plugins/ cache/binaries.

Setup on a new device

# 1. Deploy the dotfiles repo — install.sh stows ~/.config/claude AND runs link.sh for you
cd ~/.dots && ./install.sh

# 2. Launch Claude and log in once (credentials are NOT synced)
claude

# 3. Reinstall the plugins from settings.json -> enabledPlugins
#    (typescript-lsp, frontend-design — anthropics/claude-plugins-official) via /plugin.
#    Optional: install any formatters you want the hook to use (stylua, ruff, prettier, …).

install.sh deploys ~/.config/claude (via stow) and then runs link.sh automatically. You only need to run link.sh by hand (bash ~/.config/claude/link.sh) if a link later gets clobbered (e.g. Claude's /config replaces one with a plain file) — it's idempotent and self-healing.

A new skill/hook added to the repo shows up after a re-stow — ./install.sh (or dotsync) links the new file into ~/.config/claude, which link.sh then surfaces into ~/.claude.

Skills

Custom skills live in skills/<name>/SKILL.md (the directory name is the /command) and are linked in as ~/.claude/skills. All are disable-model-invocation: true — explicit / only, so Claude never auto-triggers them. Run them inside the repo whose branch you're working on.

/review-branch [base] — reviews the current branch's diff (vs its merge-base with the base branch) for 🐞 bugs / 🔒 security / ⚡ optimizations / 📖 readability, reports grouped findings with file:line, then applies the readability + safe fixes after you approve. Never commits. Borrows /code-review's discipline: CLAUDE.md-aware, changed-lines-only, verified bugs with a false-positive filter (skips what linters/CI catch and pre-existing issues). Ends by pointing you at the relevant built-in follow-ups (/security-review, /code-review, /verify, …).
/pr-description [base] — auto-detects this repo's GitHub PR template (.github/pull_request_template.md, …), fills it from the branch diff + commits, prints a copy-paste markdown block, and copies it to the clipboard with wl-copy. Leaves verification checkboxes for you; never creates/pushes the PR.
/commit-msg [hint] — reads the staged diff, infers the repo's commit style from recent git log (e.g. this repo's [Scope] summary), drafts a matching message, prints it, and copies it to the clipboard with wl-copy. Never stages or commits — draft only.
/pr-loop [pr] — babysits the current branch's PR in a self-paced loop: fixes review comments that don't need your input — from any reviewer (Codex, Claude, humans) plus any @claude request — git adds them, drafts the commit message (/commit-msg style) and marks each thread with a reaction instead of an "Addressed — …" reply: 👍 fixed, 👀 parked for your decision, 👎 a bot false positive (bots only, always with a one-line why). Then pings you to commit & push and re-checks every ~10 min (via ScheduleWakeup). Resolves threads once their fix is pushed — dismissals right away, since there's nothing to land. Stops when no unresolved comments remain or the automated reviewers (Codex/Claude) hit their limit. Prep-only — never commits/pushes/merges; needs gh authed and the session left open. Each cycle it prints when it will re-check and that Esc (between cycles) stops it; on the last cycle it prints a clear "Finished — no more active issues" and does not reschedule.

Adding more config later

Drop the file/dir under .config/claude/ here, add its name to the items list in link.sh, and re-run bash ~/.config/claude/link.sh. For example commands/ or agents/.
