bake-claude-md-files
Claude Code skill - converts CLAUDE.md rules into automated checks (eslint, phpstan, pint, CI, etc.), freeing up agent context.
Inspired by Matthieu Napoli's tweet. We extended the original prompt into a proper Claude Code skill with tooling-first priorities.
How it works
- Reads all CLAUDE.md files and inventories existing tooling (linters, CI, git hooks, etc.)
- Identifies rules that can be expressed as automated checks
- Presents proposed changes for your approval
- Implements the checks using your project's existing tools
- Removes the automated rules from CLAUDE.md after checks pass
Rules that require human judgment are kept as-is.
Install
The repo doubles as a plugin marketplace (required by Claude Code for plugin install to work). marketplace.json points to the plugin in this same repo.
Via skills.sh
npx skills add publicala/bake-claude-md-files
Via Plugin Marketplace
/plugin marketplace add publicala/bake-claude-md-files
/plugin install bake-claude-md-files@publicala
