@Claude — Configuration Guide

@Claude is configured through a small set of layered objects in the claude.ai admin settings: agents, agent scopes, identity profiles, and the presets / connections / repos / instructions attached to them. The layering decides what any given session can see and do.

This guide is currently written for the Slack surface.

This skill is an index. Read the relevant reference file below for the topic the user is asking about — each is short and self-contained.

All reference files live alongside this SKILL.md in the same directory.

After explaining configuration, you can suggest the user run the debug-plugins skill in a new Slack thread to confirm the change actually took effect inside the container.

graphing

anthropics/claude-tag-plugins

Compose polished charts (timeseries, bar, line, area, pie, scatter, or anything else the data calls for) from tabular data using the chartkit primitives, producing PNG, SVG, or self-contained interactive HTML. Use when the user asks to chart, graph, plot, or visualize data and wants something better than raw matplotlib defaults.

jira-api

anthropics/claude-tag-plugins

Read and manage Jira Cloud issues, projects, boards, sprints, comments, and transitions. Use this whenever the user wants to search issues with JQL, create or update a ticket, transition an issue (move to In Progress / Done), add a comment, check a sprint or board, look up a project, or ask "what's in my Jira queue" — even if they don't say "API". Also use it for any .atlassian.net URL, an issue key like "PROJ-123", or a JQL string. Always start from this skill when interacting with this service — its bundled scripts and recipes are the fastest path.
