Install it once, and stop re-typing it forever

A terminal session that drifted across seven files

Sound familiar?

Typing the same three instructions every single session?

Everyone builds a private list of things they always say. Match the existing style. Don't refactor what I didn't ask about. Show me the plan first. And everyone eventually forgets one on a tired evening, which is precisely the session that produces the surprising diff.

Anything you have typed more than five times is not a prompt any more. It is a project standard that happens to live in your head, and it belongs in a file where it applies whether you remembered it or not.

The twelve skills

Each skill arrives as a complete definition: what it does, when it triggers, where the file goes, and how to check it is firing.

Conventions you repeat daily

House Style

Match the surrounding code: same naming, same comment density, same error handling. Never introduce a new pattern without saying so first.

Review Gate

For changes touching more than three files: produce a plan with file list and risks, and wait for approval before editing.

Keeping coverage honest

Test Companion

Whenever you change behaviour, name the test that would have caught the old bug. If it doesn't exist, write it before the fix.

  • Choosing which instructions belong in project setup and which don't
  • Installing skills so every session starts with your standards loaded
  • How to tell when a skill is firing and when it is being ignored
  • Keeping the set small enough that it stays fast and predictable

Why skills beat pasting

A prompt applies to one message. A skill applies to every session, including the ones where you are tired and would have skipped the instruction.

Written Once

The standard lives in a file instead of in your memory, so it survives the sessions where you forget to mention it.

Consistent By Default

Everyone working in the project gets the same instructions loaded, which removes an entire category of review comment.

Small On Purpose

Twelve, not fifty. A bloated set slows every session and makes it impossible to tell which instruction produced which behaviour.

grep -n 'is this for me'

This is for you if

  • You type the same three standards into every session
  • More than one person works in the repository
  • You want your conventions applied on the nights you forget to mention them

This is not for you if

  • You work alone on throwaway scripts with no conventions worth enforcing
  • You have never installed project-level configuration before
  • You want fifty skills — this argues hard for twelve

Frequently asked questions

Is this a physical book or a digital product?

It's a digital guide (PDF). Right after purchase you get an email with a secure link to download it instantly. Nothing is shipped.

Is this official, or connected to Anthropic?

No. Terminal Craft is an independent publisher with no affiliation to, endorsement from or sponsorship by Anthropic or any other AI vendor. Claude and Claude Code are trademarks of Anthropic PBC. This guide is our own field notes on using those tools well.

Does this include software, a licence or a subscription?

No. You need your own tools and your own account. This is written material: prompts, patterns and workflows you paste into whatever you already use.

AI changes constantly. Will this be out of date next month?

Every guide is dated on the cover as the 2026 Edition, and each one includes a chapter on what tends to change between versions and how to adapt a prompt when it does. The patterns outlast the version numbers; the specific outputs will not, and we say so plainly rather than pretending otherwise.

Do I need to be an experienced developer?

You need to be comfortable running a coding agent on your own project. The prompts are written in plain English and explained, but they assume you already have a codebase you're working on.

What if it isn't for me?

You're protected by a 60-day money-back guarantee. If it doesn't help, email us within 60 days for a full refund. No questions asked.
