Recommended combinations

Claude Code focused stack high

Each repository covers a distinct layer; avoid combining tools that duplicate lifecycle ownership.

Order of operations

  • Install Claude Code
  • Add only needed task skills
  • Add HUD if useful
  • Add memory only after privacy review
  • Add Codex plugin when second-agent review/delegation is needed
