Pro Claude Code Mastery — Agent workflows, context, and verification
Move from chatbot to agentic coding: Explore → Plan → Implement → Commit, master the context window, and scale with Subagents, Hooks, MCP, and non-interactive CI.
Five pillars of a Claude Code Pro
① Verification loop
Tests, build, linter, UI diff — Pass/Fail; /goal, Stop Hooks, reviewer subagent.
② Explore → Plan → Implement → Commit
Plan Mode (Shift+Tab), edit plan Ctrl+G, implement with verify, commit + PR.
③ CLAUDE.md & extensions
Skills, Subagents, Hooks, MCP, gh/aws CLI — lean environment.
④ Context management
/clear, /compact, /btw, Esc, /rewind, --continue.
⑤ Scale & automate
claude -p, worktrees, /batch, permission-mode auto.

Anti-patterns to avoid
- Kitchen Sink Session — unrelated tasks in one session
- Repeated fixes without /clear — rewrite the prompt instead
- Overlong CLAUDE.md — critical rules get ignored
- Trusting AI code without automated verification
- Infinite research — context overflow (use Subagents + scope limits)
