Claude Cookbooks
Official Anthropic examples repo: agents, tool use, prompts, and skills.
About
anthropics/claude-cookbooks is Anthropic's official examples repository for building with Claude — covering agent architectures, multi-agent coordination, tool-use patterns, prompt engineering, multimodal handling, third-party integrations (AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, LangChain), and examples for building custom Claude Code skills.\n\nIt is free and open, with roughly 53,000 GitHub stars making it one of the most-starred Anthropic repos. Limitations: examples are reference patterns rather than maintained libraries — APIs shift and some notebooks go stale, and it is educational rather than production code.
