Resources

Researcher-built resources

The strongest material is by other researchers who built workflows for their own labs. Start here.

• Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna: Claude Code Academic Workflow

  Econometrician's setup adopted by 15+ research groups. Project layout, CLAUDE.md conventions, replication-package patterns.

• Patrick Mineault: Claude Code for Scientists

  The canonical short-form essay on habits: Plan-Execute-Evaluate, Shift+Tab, ESC-with-abandon. Required reading for Day 1.

• Lee Crawfurd: Claude Code Skills for Academic Research

  Reusable skills for paper review, code review, and computational reproducibility audits. Drop-in for any researcher.

• Yiqing Xu & Leo Yang: Scaling Reproducibility

  Multi-agent reproducibility framework tested on real replication packages.

• Andrew Hall (with Eli Straus): Claude replication audit

  Concrete case study of Claude replicating and extending a published paper. Where it succeeds, where it drifts.

Official documentation & courses

• Claude Code documentation

  Authoritative reference for the tool: installation, commands, hooks, MCP, settings.

• Anthropic Engineering: Claude Code best practices

  The canonical short-form playbook from Anthropic. The single most-cited piece on day-to-day workflows.

• Anthropic: How Anthropic teams use Claude Code (PDF)

  Internal patterns documented across ten Anthropic departments. Concrete examples of what real use looks like.

• Anthropic: How scientists are using Claude

  Field examples across biology, physics, and the social sciences. Useful for motivation and for skeptical colleagues.

• Anthropic Academy: Claude Code in Action

  The authoritative free course. ~3 hours.

• Anthropic Academy: Claude Code 101

  Lighter-weight intro for newer users.

• DeepLearning.AI: Claude Code: A Highly Agentic Coding Assistant

  Built with Anthropic. Three-project structure.

• OpenAI Codex CLI documentation

  Official docs for the Codex CLI: the OpenAI counterpart we cover alongside Claude Code in the workshop's tool-split tabs.

Ongoing commentary

• Nate B. Jones: AI News & Strategy Daily (YouTube)

  Daily commentary on Claude Code releases, agentic-harness primitives, and how to think about builder workflows. Useful for staying current without reading every release note.

Community plugins, skills & standards

• AGENTS.md (open standard)

  The open specification behind the project memory files we author on Days 1 and 2. Stewarded by the Agentic AI Foundation under the Linux Foundation.

• Superpowers (community plugin)

  Skills that operationalize plan-driven, test-driven, verification-first workflows. We install this together on Day 3.

• Awesome Claude Code

  Community-curated list of skills, hooks, commands, and plugins. Shop here when you have a specific itch to scratch.
