Team Workflows
Establish consistent Claude Code practices across your team with shared configurations, standards, and onboarding patterns.
Quick Reference
| Aspect | Location | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Project Config | ./CLAUDE.md |
Checked into repo, shared by all |
| Project Rules | ./.claude/rules/*.md |
File-specific team standards |
| Personal Config | ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md |
Individual preferences (not shared) |
| Team Skills | ./.claude/skills/ |
Project-specific workflows |
| Settings | ./.claude/settings.json |
Team tool settings |
Configuration Hierarchy for Teams
Team Member's Machine
|
+-- ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md # Personal (not checked in)

What to Share vs. Keep Personal
| Share (Version Control) | Keep Personal (~/.claude/) |
|---|---|
| Project conventions | Editor preferences |
| Build commands | Tool aliases |
| Code style rules | API keys |
| Architecture docs | Personal shortcuts |
| Team workflows | Experimental settings |
Team Standards Pattern
Code Style Enforcement
Create .claude/rules/code-style.md:
---
globs: ["**/*.ts", "**/*.tsx"]
description: Team TypeScript conventions
alwaysApply: true
---
# Code Style Standards
## Formatting
- Use 2-space indentation
- Single quotes for strings
- No semicolons (Prettier handles)
- Max line length: 100 characters
## Naming
- Components: PascalCase
- Functions: camelCase
- Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
- Files: kebab-case.ts
## Imports
- Absolute imports from `@/`
- Group: external, internal, relative
- Sort alphabetically within groups
Review Standards
Create .claude/rules/reviews.md:
---
globs: ["**/*"]
description: Code review standards
alwaysApply: false
---
# Code Review Checklist
When reviewing or preparing code for review:
## Required
- [ ] Tests cover new functionality
- [ ] No console.log statements
- [ ] Error handling for async operations
- [ ] TypeScript strict mode passes
## Performance
- [ ] No N+1 queries
- [ ] Large lists use pagination
- [ ] Images are optimized
## Security
- [ ] No secrets in code
- [ ] User input is validated
- [ ] SQL uses parameterized queries
Shared Skills Pattern
Teams can create project-specific skills in .claude/skills/:
Structure
.claude/
skills/
deploy/
SKILL.md # Deployment workflow
pr-workflow/
SKILL.md # PR creation standards
incident-response/
SKILL.md # On-call procedures
Example Team Skill
Create .claude/skills/feature-workflow/SKILL.md:
---
name: feature-workflow
description: Team feature development workflow from branch to merge.
---
# Feature Workflow
## 1. Create Branch
```bash
git checkout main && git pull
git checkout -b feature/TICKET-123-description
2. Development
- Follow
.claude/rules/code-style.md - Write tests alongside code
- Update CHANGELOG.md
3. Pre-PR Checks
bun test
bun lint
bun typecheck
4. Create PR
- Title:
feat(scope): description - Link to ticket
- Add reviewers from CODEOWNERS
## Team Settings
Share tool configurations via `.claude/settings.json`:
```json
{
"permissions": {
"allow": [
"Bash(bun:*)",
"Bash(git:*)",
"Bash(docker compose:*)"
],
"deny": [
"Bash(rm -rf:*)",
"Bash(git push --force:*)"
]
}
}
Note: Personal API keys and sensitive settings should remain in ~/.claude/settings.json.
Workflow: Setting Up Team Standards
Prerequisites
- Git repository initialized
- Team coding conventions discussed
- Key commands documented
Steps
-
Create Project CLAUDE.md
- Add project description
- Document all commands
- List tech stack
- Note key architecture decisions
-
Create Rules Directory
-
.claude/rules/code-style.md -
.claude/rules/testing.md -
.claude/rules/security.md
-
-
Add Team Skills
-
.claude/skills/for common workflows - Document team-specific procedures
-
-
Configure Settings
-
.claude/settings.jsonwith permissions - Add to
.gitignoreif contains secrets
-
-
Document Onboarding
- Add onboarding section to CLAUDE.md
- Create onboarding skill if complex
Validation
- All files committed to version control
- New team member can onboard using docs
- Rules load correctly for target files

Knowledge Sharing
Decision Documentation
Include in CLAUDE.md:
## Architecture Decisions
### ADR-001: Use Drizzle over Prisma
**Status:** Accepted
**Context:** Need TypeScript ORM with good Bun support
**Decision:** Use Drizzle for lighter bundle and better TS inference
**Consequences:** Team needs to learn Drizzle API
Pattern Library
Create .claude/rules/patterns.md:
---
globs: ["src/**/*.ts"]
description: Approved implementation patterns
alwaysApply: true
---
# Approved Patterns
## API Calls
Use the `apiClient` wrapper, not fetch directly:
```ts
// Good
const data = await apiClient.get('/users');
// Avoid
const data = await fetch('/api/users');
Error Handling
Always use Result type for operations that can fail:
// Good
const result = await createUser(data);
if (result.isErr()) { handle error }
// Avoid
try { await createUser(data) } catch { ... }
## Best Practices
### Do
- Commit CLAUDE.md and .claude/ to version control
- Keep personal preferences in ~/.claude/
- Review configurations during onboarding
- Update docs when conventions change
- Use rules for file-specific guidance
### Avoid
- Putting secrets in shared configs
- Overly long CLAUDE.md files
- Conflicting personal and project settings
- Stale documentation
- Duplicating official docs

Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-state
Maintain .agent state files. Use at session start, after meaningful steps, and before concluding: read/update constitution/memory/focus/issues/baseline consistently.
agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-testing
Test strategy, execution, and coverage analysis. Use when designing tests, running test suites, or analyzing test results beyond baseline checks.
