The Model Repository

The Claude Agent Workspace Model is the reference template that defines this pattern. It contains the folder structure, Claude Code scaffolding, and conventions used across all the workspaces in this index.

The Core Idea

A Git repository isn't just for code — it can serve as a complete, self-contained workspace for any activity. The agent workspace model uses a defined folder structure, a CLAUDE.md for agent instructions, slash commands, MCP configurations, and subagent definitions to create purpose-built environments for domains like systems administration, legal research, health documentation, financial planning, and more.

How to Use the Model

If you want Claude Code to scaffold a new workspace following this pattern, provide it with the model repository URL as context:

Fetch https://github.com/danielrosehill/Claude-Agent-Workspace-Model
and use it as a template to scaffold a workspace for [your use case].

Claude will read the model's structure and conventions, then generate a tailored workspace with the appropriate folders, CLAUDE.md instructions, slash commands, and agent configurations for your specific domain.
