# Inspect the real Claude Code system, tool, and subagent prompts before designing compatible extensions with claude-code-system-prompts

Use claude-code-system-prompts when you need the current extracted Claude Code system prompts, built-in tool prompts, or subagent prompts before building a compatible plugin, workflow, or prompt customization.

## Prerequisites

Claude Code prompt reference files from the repository and a workflow that needs prompt-surface inspection, diffing, or compatibility design.

## Installation

Choose whichever fits your setup:

1. Copy this skill folder into your local skills directory.
2. Clone the repo and symlink or copy the skill into your agent workspace.
3. Add the repo as a git submodule if you manage shared skills centrally.
4. Install it through your internal provisioning or packaging workflow.
5. Download the folder directly from GitHub and place it in your skills collection.

Install command or upstream instructions:

```
Open the repository or clone it locally, inspect the extracted system prompt, tool prompt, or subagent prompt files for the Claude Code version you care about, then use those references while designing compatible workflows, customizations, or prompt patches.
```
