How to install Claude Code configs into .claude/

A Claude Code config is just a file in your .claude/ folder. Here are three ways to get one in, from manual to one command.

1. Manual copy

Create the folder if needed and drop the file in: skills go in .claude/skills/, subagents in .claude/agents/, commands in .claude/commands/. Restart Claude Code (or open /agents) to pick it up.

2. One-click from ConfigDeck

On any listing, click Install. ConfigDeck writes the file straight into your project's .claude/ folder in the right place — no copy-paste, no hunting through a README.

3. CLI (fastest, scriptable)

Install from the terminal with npx — great for teams and CI:

npx configdeck add <name>

Where things live

Skills → .claude/skills/ · Subagents → .claude/agents/ · Commands → .claude/commands/ · Rules → CLAUDE.md · Hooks/MCP → settings. Put them at the project root to share with your team, or in your home folder to use everywhere.

FAQ

Which install method is fastest?

The CLI: `npx configdeck add <name>` installs a config in one command — great for CI or scripting.

Do I need to restart Claude Code after a manual copy?

Restart, or open /agents, so Claude Code picks up the new file.

Where do commands vs skills vs subagents go?

Commands → .claude/commands/, skills → .claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md, subagents → .claude/agents/.

Does one-click install touch anything outside .claude/?

No — it only writes inside the .claude/ folder of the project you choose.
