Configuration

Introduction This guide walks through my personal Claude Code configuration, enhanced with multiple Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that integrate with various tools and data sources. While this represents my specific setup, it’s designed to be adaptable for any developer who wants to boost their AI-assisted development workflows. Yes, it was authored largely by Claude, but reviewed by me. What You’ll Learn How to configure Claude Code for enterprise use Setting up essential MCPs (Memory, Filesystem, Tavily) Integrating enterprise-specific MCPs (Atlassian, cloud cost management) Practical examples of using MCPs together for real workflows My dotfiles and configuration management approach with YADM Prerequisites Claude Code installed (official installation guide) Basic terminal/command-line proficiency Node.js/npm installed (for some MCPs) Part 1: Claude Code Installation & Configuration Installing Claude Code # Install Claude Code via npm npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code If you’re using an enterprise LLM gateway or proxy, add the following to your shell configuration (e.g., ~/.zshrc): ...

Intro Click is a modular router library developed at UCLA, allowing Click-definied router networks to be ‘attached’ to an ns-3- nodes layer 3 functionality. It has very little relevance to my own research, but was interesting to play with.

Requirements Already installed ns-3 git ~/src directory Get ’er dun cd ~/src; git clone git://read.cs.ucla.edu/git/click ; cd click sudo ./configure --enable-nsclick --enable-userlevel; sudo make; sudo make install ...

I’ve been doing alot of messing around in Ubuntu recently and there are lots of tweaks I like to make.

Dead easy, there is a .config directory under your $HOME dir, containing several files. The one we need is user-dirs.dirs , and it looks something like this. # This file is written by xdg-user-dirs-update # If you want to change or add directories, just edit the line you're # interested in. All local changes will be retained on the next run # Format is XDG_xxx_DIR="$HOME/yyy", where yyy is a shell-escaped # homedir-relative path, or XDG_xxx_DIR="/yyy", where /yyy is an # absolute path. No other format is supported. # XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop" XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads" XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates" XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/Public" XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents" XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music" XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures" XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos" And this is what I changed mine to ...

I had been looking at this years Google Summer Of Code google group and saw the list of organisations that are getting involved. While i was alooking at it, I knew i didn’t want to even consider the big boys (I’m looking at you, Debian, Drupal, KDE, Apache, X.Org, etc), they’re too big to get my teeth into, and I’m currently in the throws of ‘WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO DO MY FINAL YEAR PROJECT ON!!! ’ (For any Americans, that means ‘dissertation’). ...
