Codex Claude Code Starter Pack — Development skill for Claude Code

Starter Pack 2026 for Windows

A beginner-friendly setup pack for Codex and Claude Code on Windows.

This is for real people, not just developers. You do not need to know code before using it.

What this does

Starter Pack installs a calm, build-ready baseline so a new user can open Codex or Claude Code and say things like:

• Build me a simple website
• Build me a simple app
• Make me a short presentation for my class or business
• Make me a landing page for my business
• Help me plan and build my first project step by step

The visible user path is simple:

1. Download the latest ZIP from GitHub Releases.
2. Extract it.
3. Double-click INSTALL-STARTER-PACK.cmd.
4. Wait while Starter Pack installs.
5. Read the short next-step note that opens automatically.

What the user sees in the ZIP

• OPEN-THIS-FIRST.txt
• INSTALL-STARTER-PACK.cmd
• STARTER-PACK-LAUNCHER.ps1
• WHAT-TO-DO-NEXT.txt
• PASTE-INTO-CODEX-OR-CLAUDE-INSTALL.txt
• starter-pack/

Two ways to use it

1. Click-to-install

Double-click `INSTALL-STARTER-PACK.cmd`.

That is the main beginner path. The installer starts automatically and finishes by opening a plain-language next-step note.

2. Copy-paste into Codex or Claude Code

If the user already opened Codex or Claude Code, they can open `PASTE-INTO-CODEX-OR-CLAUDE-INSTALL.txt`, copy the text, and paste it into the chat.
