Setup

Option 1: Clone the Repository

Best if you want to receive updates and contribute back.

git clone <repo-url> ~/claude-rh-config

Then symlink or copy the config to your project:

# Symlink CLAUDE.md and .claude/ directory
ln -s ~/claude-rh-config/CLAUDE.md /path/to/your/project/CLAUDE.md
ln -s ~/claude-rh-config/.claude /path/to/your/project/.claude

Option 2: Copy What You Need

1. Copy CLAUDE.md into your project
2. Copy .claude/skills/ into your project's .claude/ directory

Configure Credentials

1. Copy .env.example to .env in your project:

   cp .env.example .env
   

2. Fill in the API keys you need:
   • Jira: Get a Personal Access Token from issues.redhat.com
   • LLM APIs: Get keys from models.corp (requires VPN)
   • Google: Follow OAuth setup in .claude/skills/google-workspace/api-reference.md

Note: .env is gitignored and should never be committed.

Personal Configuration

Create a CLAUDE.local.md file in your project for personal preferences (name, role, communication style, etc.). This file is gitignored and won't be committed.

Example:

# About Me
- **Name**: Your Name
- **Role**: Your role at Red Hat
- **Preferences**: Python, concise output, etc.

Requirements

• VPN connection for Red Hat internal LLM endpoints
• Python 3.8+ with python-dotenv for scripts using credentials
• Claude Code CLI installed
