How to Configure Claude Agent: Skills, MCP Servers, Rules, and Prompts Explained
Configure your Claude Agent like a pro. This guide breaks down the four layers of Claude Agent configuration — MCP Servers, Rules, Skills, and Prompts — with real code examples you can copy directly. Learn how to connect Claude to GitHub, PostgreSQL, and the web via MCP; write a CLAUDE.md that enforces your team's conventions; encode repeatable workflows as reusable Skills; and build a prompt library for common tasks. By the end, you'll have a complete setup that gives Claude the right tools, guardrails, and context — without repeating yourself every session.
