# Anthropic's Claude Quickstarts Hits 17K Stars With Six Deployable Agent Templates

> Anthropic's claude-quickstarts repo packs six runnable agent templates — from browser automation to autonomous multi-session coding — all free under MIT.

If you want to build something real with the Claude API and don't want to start from a blank file, Anthropic maintains [claude-quickstarts](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-quickstarts): a collection of six deployable project templates covering the most common agentic patterns developers are building today. With over 17,000 stars and nearly 3,000 forks, it has become one of the most-referenced starting points in the Claude ecosystem.

## Six templates, not six toys

Each project in the repo is a self-contained, runnable application , not a code snippet. They cover a meaningful spread of use cases:

* **Customer Support Agent** , a customer support agent powered by Claude that demonstrates how to create an AI-assisted support system with access to a knowledge base.
* **Financial Data Analyst** , a financial data analyst that leverages Claude's capabilities with interactive data visualization to analyze financial data via chat.
* **Computer Use Demo** , an environment and tools that Claude can use to control a desktop computer, including support for the latest `computer_use_20251124` tool version with zoom actions.
* **Computer Use Best Practices** , a native-macOS reference implementation that runs directly against the macOS desktop and demonstrates common patterns for building more reliable and cost-effective computer-use agents: explicit tool definitions, correct image sizing and pruning, prompt caching, server-side compaction, batched tool calls, a sandboxed shell, and trajectory recording.
