Creates new Tandem project or context folders with CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md configured from templates. Trigger on: "create a folder", "new project", "set up a workspace for", "start a project for [client]", "make a folder for", "new workspace", "create a space for", "organize [X] in its own folder", "client folder for [name]", "project folder". Do NOT use for creating folders outside ~/Tandem/, file system operations on desktop/Dropbox/cloud storage, project creation in external tools (VSCode, Notion, Monday.com), or simple file organization not requiring a workspace.
From tandemnpx claudepluginhub binatrixai/tandem-marketplace --plugin tandemThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
evals/evals.jsonexamples/sample-structures.mdreferences/proactivity-mapping.mdreferences/template.mdtemplate.mdExecutes pre-written implementation plans: critically reviews, follows bite-sized steps exactly, runs verifications, tracks progress with checkpoints, uses git worktrees, stops on blockers.
Guides idea refinement into designs: explores context, asks questions one-by-one, proposes approaches, presents sections for approval, writes/review specs before coding.
Dispatches parallel agents to independently tackle 2+ tasks like separate test failures or subsystems without shared state or dependencies.
Create organized project and context folders with pre-configured CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md files, ready for focused work.

What would you like to call this workspace?
AskUserQuestion:
- "Let me type a name"
If the user provides a name, normalize it:
acme-corp-projectConfirm the normalized name:
I'll create a folder called `acme-corp-project`. Sound good?
AskUserQuestion:
- "Yes, create it"
- "Let me change the name"
Where should this folder live?
AskUserQuestion:
- "projects/ (client or project workspace)"
- "email/ (email-related)"
- "documents/ (document workspace)"
- "research/ (research workspace)"
- "tasks/ (task management)"
- "Root (~/Tandem/)"
- "Custom location"
Default to projects/ if the user mentioned a client or project name.
What's the main purpose of this workspace? This helps me configure the right
proactivity triggers and behavior.
AskUserQuestion:
- "Client project (deliverables, meetings, communication)"
- "Internal project (planning, tracking, documentation)"
- "Event planning (logistics, vendors, timeline)"
- "Research initiative (investigation, analysis, reporting)"
- "Custom — let me describe it"
Should this workspace inherit memory from the parent folder, or start fresh?
AskUserQuestion:
- "Start fresh (clean MEMORY.md)"
- "Copy relevant entries from parent"
- "Link to parent memory (read but don't copy)"
Start fresh: Create empty MEMORY.md with category headers only. Copy relevant: Read parent MEMORY.md, let user pick entries to carry over. Link to parent: Add a note in CLAUDE.md to reference parent MEMORY.md for global context.
Create the folder with the following structure:
[folder-name]/
├── CLAUDE.md ← From template, customized with name, purpose, proactivity triggers
├── MEMORY.md ← With four category headers, either empty or with copied entries
├── documents/ ← For deliverables, reports, spreadsheets
├── examples/ ← For style/format examples the assistant can learn from
│ └── README.md ← Brief explanation of what to put here
└── references/ ← For reference materials, source documents, specifications
See template.md for the file templates.
Created workspace: [parent]/[folder-name]/
Structure:
- CLAUDE.md (configured for [purpose])
- MEMORY.md (4 categories, [empty / N entries copied])
- documents/ (for deliverables)
- examples/ (for style references)
- references/ (for source materials)
AskUserQuestion:
- "Open this workspace"
- "Create another folder"
- "Done"
| Input | Normalized |
|---|---|
| Acme Corp Project | acme-corp-project |
| Q2 Marketing | q2-marketing |
| Sarah's Onboarding | sarahs-onboarding |
| Event - Annual Conf 2026 | event-annual-conf-2026 |
| דוח רבעוני | quarterly-report (transliterate or translate) |
Rules:
The purpose selected in Step 3 determines which proactivity triggers are added to the generated CLAUDE.md:
The full CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md templates are in template.md.
Sample folder structures with generated content are in examples/sample-structures.md.
After folder creation:
AskUserQuestion:
- "Start working in the new folder"
- "Create another workspace"
- "Done for now"
When the proactivity engine detects a new client/project mention:
You mentioned "[name]" — I don't see a workspace for that yet.
AskUserQuestion:
- "Create a workspace for [name]"
- "No need, it's a one-off"
