Claude Code Second Brain Skills

A collection of custom skills that turn Claude Code into a second brain for knowledge work. These skills demonstrate progressive disclosure of context - there's no magic, just structured knowledge that makes Claude hyper-capable for specific tasks.

What This Is

Most people think of Claude Code as a tool for writing and debugging code. These skills extend it into a system for capturing and operationalizing knowledge:

  • External integrations - Connect to MCP servers (Zapier, GitHub, etc.) without context bloat
  • Video creation - Programmatic videos with Remotion and React
  • Presentations - Professional slides and LinkedIn carousels with your brand styling
  • Documentation - Runbooks, SOPs, and technical docs that people actually follow
  • Skill development - Creating new skills to extend Claude's capabilities further
  • Brand consistency - Define your voice and visual identity once, use everywhere

The system works through progressive disclosure: Claude only loads detailed instructions when needed, keeping context efficient while maintaining deep expertise for each domain.
