Specialized AI Agents for Claude Code

Purpose-built agents that extend Claude Code with specialized capabilities for code review, testing, documentation, and refactoring. Open source and ready to use.

Why Specialized Agents?

Claude Code is a general-purpose coding agent. It can do almost anything, but it doesn't do everything equally well out of the box. Specialized agents solve this by providing pre-configured Claude Code setups optimized for specific tasks.

Each agent in this collection includes:
- A specialized AGENTS.md with task-specific instructions
- Pre-configured prompts and workflows
- Example outputs showing what good looks like
- Integration patterns for CI/CD pipelines

Think of them as Claude Code 'roles' — switch the agent context, and Claude Code shifts from generalist to specialist.

The Agent Collection

Code Review Agent

Reviews PRs with a focus on correctness, performance, and style consistency. Provides line-level comments, suggests improvements, and flags potential bugs. Configurable severity levels and style rules.

Test Generation Agent

Generates comprehensive test suites from implementation code. Covers happy paths, edge cases, error conditions, and integration tests. Follows your existing test conventions when examples are provided.

Documentation Agent

Generates API documentation, README files, and inline code comments. Matches your documentation style when given examples. Particularly useful for libraries and public APIs.

Refactoring Agent

Identifies and executes safe refactoring operations: extract functions, rename variables, simplify conditionals, reduce duplication. Verifies that tests still pass after each refactoring step.

Using the Agents

Get started with specialized agents in minutes.

1

Clone the repository

Clone the Contains Studio agents repo from GitHub. Each agent lives in its own directory with all necessary configuration files.

2

Copy the agent you need

Copy the agent's AGENTS.md and configuration files into your project. The agent integrates with your existing Claude Code setup — no additional tools required.

3

Customize for your project

Adjust the agent's rules and examples to match your project's conventions. The provided defaults are good starting points, but customization produces significantly better output.

4

Use the agent

Reference the agent in your Claude Code prompts: 'Using the code review agent, review this PR.' Claude Code loads the specialized context and applies the agent's expertise.
