Claude Code Mastery

About this book

Claude Code Mastery treats AI-assisted coding as supervised software engineering rather than unrestricted code generation. It covers safe setup, working-tree hygiene, permissions, secrets, repository mapping, context, feature planning, acceptance criteria, small code changes, debugging and root-cause analysis, refactoring, testing, documentation, code review, security gates, Git, releases, rollback, projects, and a bank of seventy-five prompts. The emphasis stays on evidence, reversibility, and human review before shipping.

What you will learn

• Set up Claude Code with safe permissions, clean working trees, and secret-handling rules.
• Map a repository and give the model enough context without flooding the task.
• Plan features with acceptance criteria and make small, reviewable changes.
• Debug root causes, refactor safely, and build regression tests around fixes.
• Use code review, security checks, Git, releases, and rollback before shipping.
