# AI Dev Starter + Claude Code Onboarding Kit

> Everything an engineering team needs to adopt Claude Code well, from day one.

**Status:** Production

## Problem

Teams adopt AI coding tools ad hoc, so quality, practices, and results vary wildly across engineers.

## What it does

A team-enablement kit for engineering orgs adopting Claude Code as a coding partner, built on the premise that you brief the agent like a senior engineer joining the team. It provides a root CLAUDE.md briefing template (what and why, where things live, rules, flow, state), local per-directory CLAUDE.md files for sensitive modules like auth and infra, reusable skills for structured code review and systematic debugging, hooks for deterministic formatting, linting, and security scans, and progressive-context docs. It ships with a practical first-week onboarding guide covering setup, PR workflows, security scanning, and Jira/Confluence integration.

## Measured results

- **Day 1** productive onboarding
- **Templates** CLAUDE.md + skills + hooks

## Stack

Claude Code, CLAUDE.md context design, Skills + hooks, Onboarding playbooks

## Topics

AI, Agents, Delivery, Leadership
