hivemind: Skill for Claude Code

Building LLM-Powered Applications with Claude

This skill helps you build LLM-powered applications with Claude. Choose the right surface based on your needs, detect the project language, then read the relevant language-specific documentation.

Defaults

Unless the user requests otherwise:

For the Claude model version, please use Claude Opus 4.6, which you can access via the exact model string claude-opus-4-6. Please default to using adaptive thinking (thinking: {type: "adaptive"}) for anything remotely complicated. And finally, please default to streaming for any request that may involve long input, long output, or high max_tokens — it prevents hitting request timeouts. Use the SDK's .get_final_message() / .finalMessage() helper to get the complete response if you don't need to handle individual stream events

Language Detection

Before reading code examples, determine which language the user is working in:

1. Look at project files to infer the language:

   • *.py, requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, setup.py, Pipfile → Python — read from python/
   • *.ts, *.tsx, package.json, tsconfig.json → TypeScript — read from typescript/
   • *.js, *.jsx (no .ts files present) → TypeScript — JS uses the same SDK, read from typescript/
   • *.java, pom.xml, build.gradle → Java — read from java/
   • *.kt, *.kts, build.gradle.kts → Java — Kotlin uses the Java SDK, read from java/
   • *.scala, build.sbt → Java — Scala uses the Java SDK, read from java/
   • *.go, go.mod → Go — read from go/
   • *.rb, Gemfile → Ruby — read from ruby/
   • *.cs, *.csproj → C# — read from csharp/
   • *.php, composer.json → PHP — read from php/

2. If multiple languages detected (e.g., both Python and TypeScript files):

   • Check which language the user's current file or question relates to
   • If still ambiguous, ask: "I detected both Python and TypeScript files. Which language are you using for the Claude API integration?"
