Claude Code Workspace Generator

Set up a structured AI workspace in 5 minutes. No coding required.

Looking for /identify-skill? That's a standalone skill in this repo, companion to the CC-02 video "Building Your First Skill." Install it in one message: see identify-skill/.

What This Does

Creates a personalized workspace that organizes your work so Claude Code always knows what you're doing and what context to load. After setup, you'll have:

  • A workspace map that routes Claude to the right context for any task
  • Skills to create new projects and turn your processes into reusable commands
  • A structure that gets smarter as you use it

Quick Start

1. Download

Download this folder from GitHub (Code > Download ZIP). Unzip it. Put it on your Desktop.

2. Open in VS Code

Open VS Code. Go to File > Open Folder. Select this folder.

3. Open Claude Code

Open the Claude Code panel (click the Claude icon in the sidebar, or use the keyboard shortcut).

4. Type "get started"

Claude will:

  • Install your skills (asks permission once to copy files)
  • Ask you about your work (5 minute conversation)
  • Transform this folder into your personalized workspace

That's it. This folder IS your workspace now. You're already in it. Start working.

Skills Included

Skill What it does
/onboard First-run setup: interview + workspace creation
/new-workspace Add a new project or area of work
/new-workflow Turn a repeating process into a one-command skill

How It Works

Your workspace uses three layers:

CLAUDE.md        → The map (always loaded, tells Claude where everything is)
CONTEXT.md       → Local guides (one per project, loaded when you're there)
Skills           → Workflows (loaded only when you invoke them)

Claude only loads what's relevant to your current task. This keeps it focused and prevents the "context overload" problem you've probably hit in the browser.

FAQ

Is this safe? It creates folders and text files. That's all. No system changes, no hidden installs.

What if I mess up? Delete the workspace folder. Run the generator again. 30 seconds.

Do I need to know how to code? No. Everything is in plain English. You edit text files.

Can I use this for multiple projects? Yes. Use /new-workspace to add projects anytime.
