      <description>Three gates that catch broken code before your agent commits it. No gate, no commit.

When Claude writes code on its own, the real risk isn&apos;t bad code. It&apos;s bad code that gets committed without anyone noticing. Three cheap gates fix that: 1) typecheck passes, 2) build passes, 3) screenshot proves the page rendered.</description>

      <description>One prompt that catches exposed API keys, SQL injection, XSS, and auth holes before you ship.

Most vibe-coded apps ship with at least one security hole — an exposed API key, an unchecked input, a missing auth check. This prompt from hackSultan tells Claude to act as a security auditor and walk through the whole codebase looking for the standard OWASP top-10 issues. Returns a clean punch-list: severity, file, fix.</description>

      <description>Every UI change ends with a screenshot. If it doesn&apos;t look right, it didn&apos;t ship right.

TypeScript + build passing does NOT mean your UI looks right. A page can compile cleanly and still render broken — wrong layout, overlapping elements, missing assets. The only way to catch this before shipping is to actually LOOK at it.</description>

      <description>Karpathy&apos;s coding advice, packaged as a CLAUDE.md your agent actually reads.

Andrej Karpathy (the guy who taught the world how LLMs actually work) has posted years of notes on where AI coders go wrong — overengineering, missing obvious bugs, skipping tests. Someone packaged all of it into a single CLAUDE.md file you drop into any Claude Code project.</description>

      <description>Karpathy&apos;s proof-of-concept for letting AI agents do research on their own.

Andrej Karpathy built this to show what it looks like when you point AI agents at a scientific problem and let them iterate — they propose experiments, run them, read the results, propose new ones. Minimal babysitting.</description>
