Claude Code Game Studios is a setup that organizes Claude Code into a coordinated game-development team of specialized AI agents. It supports game projects across design, programming, art, audio, narrative, quality assurance, and production, with skills and workflows for coordinating that work.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00063 | $0.02274 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.01137 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00455 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00227 |
Grade A, and why
create-control-manifest scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 289 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Create Control Manifest
The Control Manifest is a flat, actionable rules sheet for programmers. It answers "what do I do?" and "what must I never do?" — organized by architectural layer, extracted from all Accepted ADRs, technical preferences, and engine reference docs. Where ADRs explain why, the manifest tells you what.
Output: docs/architecture/control-manifest.md
When to run: After /architecture-review passes and ADRs are in Accepted
status. Re-run whenever new ADRs are accepted or existing ADRs are revised.
1. Load All Inputs
ADRs
- Glob
docs/architecture/adr-*.mdand read every file - Filter to only Accepted ADRs (Status: Accepted) — skip Proposed, Deprecated, Superseded
- Note the ADR number and title for every rule sourced
Technical Preferences
- Read
.claude/docs/technical-preferences.md - Extract: naming conventions, performance budgets, approved libraries/addons, forbidden patterns
Engine Reference
- Read
docs/engine-reference/[engine]/VERSION.mdfor engine + version - Read
docs/engine-reference/[engine]/deprecated-apis.md— these become forbidden API entries - Read
docs/engine-reference/[engine]/current-best-practices.mdif it exists
Report: "Loaded [N] Accepted ADRs, engine: [name + version]."
2. Extract Rules from Each ADR
For each Accepted ADR, extract:
Required Patterns (from "Implementation Guidelines" section)
- Every "must", "should", "required to", "always" statement
- Every specific pattern or approach mandated
Forbidden Approaches (from "Alternatives Considered" sections)
- Every alternative that was explicitly rejected — why it was rejected becomes the rule ("never use X because Y")
- Any anti-patterns explicitly called out
Performance Guardrails (from "Performance Implications" section)
- Budget constraints: "max N ms per frame for this system"
- Memory limits: "this system must not exceed N MB"
Engine API Constraints (from "Engine Compatibility" section)
- Post-cutoff APIs that require verification
- Verified behaviours that differ from default LLM assumptions
- API fields or methods that behave differently in the pinned engine version
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

create-control-manifest is a skill published in the GitHub repository Donchitos/Claude-Code-Game-Studios (24,822 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 2,274 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.

novel-game-analyze
Deconstruct a novel for game adaptation. Compress a raw novel, deconstruction library, or writing project into a SOURCEBIBLE with cited textual evidence, extracting world rules, player verbs, spaces, character will, systems, and visual anchors — without inventing a genre yet. Use for gameable book analysis, analyze a…
novel-to-game
Turn a novel into a fully playable game on the selected target platform. Orchestrates the whole adaptation pipeline — requirements intake, gameable deconstruction, concept selection, world and visual design, target-runtime build, and evidence-based QA — for a novel in any language. Use for novel to game, story to…
game-build
Build a risk-matched whitebox or the approved production game for its target runtime. Turn GAMEDESIGN, and ARTDIRECTION when production begins, into a minimal BUILDBRIEF and a runnable candidate that can be iterated with replayable evidence. Use for prototype the riskiest design question, implement the approved game…
game-world-design
Design game experience, systems, and levels. Converge the chosen concept into one GAMEDESIGN defining the player promise, core loop, how the world responds, the systems actually needed, level pacing, feedback, failure, and a fully playable prototype. Use for design the game world, deepen the gameplay and levels, write…
game-concept
Design game concepts from a novel. From SOURCEBIBLE and PRODUCTBRIEF, generate three genuinely different directions on the dimensions still unlocked, then pick the most worthwhile playable prototype using hard vetoes and explicit trade-offs. Use for what game should this novel become, compare game concepts, choose a…
game-qa
Verify a game with evidence on its selected target runtime. Launch the actual build and prove real rendering, input, the core loop, at least one designed outcome, restart, and explicit limitations without dressing subjective fun up as a certain verdict. Use for test a generated game, QA a game build, check whether the…
