Website: claudeblattman.com
A free, open-source resource for non-developers who want to build real AI workflows. Three paths:
- The Essentials — Tools and foundations. Chatbots done right, dictation, transcription, prompt engineering.
- The Toolkit — Claude Code setup, configuration, and downloadable skills. From "what is this?" to a working system.
- Build Your Own — Creating custom skills, agents, and self-improving workflows.
- Academics and researchers managing multiple projects
- Professionals buried in email, meetings, and coordination
- Anyone who wants to move beyond casual chatbot use
No coding background required. Everything is built with markdown and AI tools.
New to the desktop agent apps? Start with the Desktop Agent Starter Kit:
-
Install Claude Code, then sign in.
-
In Claude Code, add and install the starter plugin:
/plugin marketplace add chrisblattman/claudeblattman /plugin install starter-kit@claudeblattman -
After your first Claude Code handoff, optionally install the Codex starter pack:
git clone https://github.com/chrisblattman/claudeblattman.git
cd claudeblattman/codex-starter
python3 install-codex-starter.py installThen follow Start Here: Desktop Agent Starter Kit.
The older skills/ library remains available as advanced/reference material,
but it is not the recommended first-run path.

The starter kit is versioned separately from the broader docs. Each public
starter-kit release should have a matching tag such as starter-kit-v0.1.0 and
a current public-manifest.json. If a plugin release needs rollback, install
from the last known-good tag and avoid changing the marketplace/plugin names.
MIT — use anything here however you want.
Built by Chris Blattman. The name is a joke. The tools are real.
