# Use a skill in Claude Code

> Hand a selected skill to Claude Code from its Atlan profile.

Use this flow when you have reviewed a skill in Atlan and want to hand it to
Claude Code for the current task. It starts with one selected skill; it does
not configure Atlan MCP for Claude Code.

## Before you start

Confirm the skill's workspace, source, and live version in Atlan. Install
Claude Code before you use the handoff.

## Open the skill

1. Open the skill profile in Atlan.
2. Select **Open in**.
3. Choose **Open in Claude Code**.
4. Review the prefilled prompt in Claude Code before you continue.

The handoff pre-populates a prompt for the selected skill. It does not send the
prompt automatically or prove that Claude Code installed or ran the skill.

## If Claude Code does not open

Return to **Open in** and select **Copy agent prompt**. Paste the copied prompt
into Claude Code, then review it before you submit it.

<Note>
  Use the [Claude Code harness](/clients/claude/how-tos/claude-code) when you need
  Atlan MCP tools inside Claude Code. The harness connection and this
  selected-skill handoff are separate flows.
