About this skill
What does the analyze-claude-code skill do?

Analyze Claude Code CLI source code to understand its architecture, implementation details, and design patterns. Use when users want to explore how Claude Code works internally, understand specific features like tools/hooks/MCP/permissions, or learn from its codebase design. Triggers on questions about Claude Code internals, source code analysis requests, or "how does Claude Code implement X" or "what's the prompts of claude code's tools" or "what's the system prompt of claude code" queries.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill analyze-claude-code --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
