Claude Code: a personal CRM your agent can use
Rare ships skills for Claude Code. Install them in your Rare folder and Claude can capture what happened, answer questions about the people in your life, and write each person's summary, using the same rules as Rare's own agent.

What you get
- A capture skill: paste a voice-note transcript, meeting notes or a ramble, and Claude files every detail under the right people

- Plain SQL over your journal with rarecrm query, for questions no screen answers
How it works today

Review the result
Claude writes plain-text entries and checks them with rarecrm check. Every change shows up in History.
Questions
- Do I need to self-host Rare to use this?
- Today the skills work against a Rare folder on your computer through the rarecrm CLI. Our MCP server, coming soon, will connect Claude to your hosted Rare directly.
- Is my data sent anywhere new?
- Claude works with your journal the way any coding agent works with files you give it. Rare's data stays plain text in your folder.
