Clean Code Framework
A Clean Code review skill that scores your code 0-10 on naming, function size, error handling and tests, then lists the exact fixes to reach 10/10.

What it does
Turns Robert C. Martin's Clean Code principles into an operational review checklist.
- Six disciplines: meaningful names, small functions, comments & formatting, error handling, unit testing, code smells
- 0-10 scoring rubric with the specific improvements needed to reach 10/10
- Context→pattern→example tables: flag argument → split into two functions;
return null→ Optional or empty collection; magic number → named constant - Quick diagnostic: ten yes/no questions (functions under 20 lines? tests under 10 seconds?) each with a prescribed action
- Deep dives delegated to
references/files for naming, functions, comments, error handling, testing and smells
Who it's for
- Developers and tech leads who want a consistent readability standard in pull-request reviews
- Anyone untangling legacy code who needs the hot spots named before touching them
- Junior engineers learning craftsmanship principles in a structured way
Examples
- "This function is too long — clean it up" → step-extraction plan plus guard clauses for the error paths
- "Review this PR for readability" → a score with a prioritized list covering names, duplication and magic numbers
- "My tests are a mess" → Arrange-Act-Assert structure,
shouldRejectExpiredToken-style names, builder helpers for setup

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wondelai/skills/HEAD/clean-code/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the clean-code folder from the GitHub repo wondelai/skills into my ~/.claude/skills/clean-code/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/wondelai/skills.git /tmp/wondelai-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/wondelai-skills/clean-code ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal.
- Clone the repository into a temp folder:
git clone https://github.com/wondelai/skills.git /tmp/wondelai-skills - Make sure the skills folder exists:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill over:
cp -r /tmp/wondelai-skills/clean-code ~/.claude/skills/ - Verify with
ls ~/.claude/skills/clean-code— you should seeSKILL.mdand areferences/directory. - Restart Claude Code and try a prompt like "score this function against clean code principles" to trigger the skill.
