Claude Code Agents, Skills, Commands, MCP Servers, Hooks & Settings

Six component types cover everything Claude Code can load — from subagents in .claude/agents to hook recipes in settings.json — and every entry in the catalog ships with its own install one-liner.

How to Install Claude Code Templates

Step 1

Find a component

Filter 1,796 agents, skills, commands, MCP servers, settings, and hooks by type and category, or search for the workflow you want to automate. Every entry has an original description and a preview of exactly what gets installed — the agent markdown, the SKILL.md bundle, or the JSON config.

Step 2

Copy the one-liner

Every card carries its own install command — npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent="category/name" --yes — with matching flags for --skill, --command, --mcp, --setting, and --hook. Nothing to clone, no config files to write.

$ npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent="…" --yes
Step 3

Run it in your project

The CLI writes the files where Claude Code expects them: agents in .claude/agents, commands in .claude/commands, MCP servers in .mcp.json, hooks and settings in settings.json. The component is live in your next session.

The agents, skills, commands, and MCP servers developers install most, drawn from across all six types — each with its install one-liner ready to copy.

35+ Free Online Developer Tools

The same zero-setup principle in the browser: JSON formatter, regex tester, encoders, and format converters — no signup, nothing to install, open a tab and go.

Claude Code Templates: Frequently Asked Questions

What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool: a CLI that runs in your terminal, reads your codebase, edits files, and runs commands. It is extensible — subagents in .claude/agents, slash commands in .claude/commands, SKILL.md skill bundles, MCP servers in .mcp.json, hooks, and settings.json all change how it behaves. ToolZip catalogs 1,796 ready-made components for it, each installable with one npx command.
What is the difference between Claude Code agents, skills, and commands?
Agents (subagents) are specialists Claude Code delegates work to, each with its own context window and tool access; skills are SKILL.md instruction bundles Claude invokes automatically when a task matches; slash commands are prompts you trigger manually by typing /name. Agents live in .claude/agents, commands live in .claude/commands, and skills ship as SKILL.md files. Use commands for actions you start yourself, and skills or agents for behavior Claude applies on its own. All three install the same way from the catalog.
How do I install Claude Code agents (subagents)?
Run npx claude-code-templates@latest --agent="category/name" --yes in your project and the agent's markdown file is written to .claude/agents, where Claude Code picks it up automatically. From your next session, Claude Code can delegate matching work to that subagent, which runs with its own context window and tool access. Every agent page on ToolZip shows the exact command to copy.
How do I install Claude Code skills?
Run npx claude-code-templates@latest --skill="category/name" --yes and the skill's SKILL.md bundle is added to your project with no manual setup. Skills are model-invoked, so Claude Code loads one automatically whenever a task matches its description — you never call it by name. The same installer handles commands (--command), MCP servers (--mcp), settings (--setting), and hooks (--hook).
What are Claude Code MCP servers?
MCP servers connect Claude Code to external systems — databases, browsers, APIs, and developer services — through the open Model Context Protocol. You register them in a project's .mcp.json file, and Claude Code can then call their tools during a session. ToolZip lists 93 MCP servers for Claude Code, each with a ready-to-copy configuration.
Are Claude Code templates free?
Yes — all 1,796 templates are free and open source, drawn from the MIT-licensed davila7/claude-code-templates project and curated and re-described by ToolZip. You only need Claude Code itself installed to use them. ToolZip's 35+ browser-based developer tools are also free, and ToolZip is an independent catalog, not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic.

ToolZip is a searchable registry of 1,796 Claude Code templates — the components that extend Anthropic's Claude Code CLI. Browse 421 Claude Code agents (subagents), 286 slash commands, 93 MCP servers, 865 skills, 69 settings profiles, and 62 hooks, or start at the full catalog. Every component installs with one npx claude-code-templates command and lands where Claude Code expects it: .claude/agents, .claude/commands, .mcp.json, or settings.json.
