Skull: Open-source tool assembles Claude Code teams on demand

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

Skull is a free, open-source tool that creates a team of AI agents for Claude Code, including a project cartographer and specialists for planning, review, and guardrails. Users invoke it by saying "skull" and it runs entirely locally as markdown files, requiring no account or API key. The tool is inert by default, with optional opt-in safety hooks for risky operations.

Meridian48 take
While Skull's local-only, markdown-based approach addresses privacy concerns, its reliance on Claude Code's permission system means safety still depends on user vigilance.
