# 1. Clone any project
git clone https://github.com/dougdevitre/access-to-health.git
# or: access-to-education, access-to-safety, access-to-housing,
# access-to-services, access-to-jobs, mo-start
# 2. Open Claude.ai -> Create a Project -> Upload SKILL.md as project knowledge
# 3. Start a conversation — the skill guides you from thereEach skill's SKILL.md file teaches Claude a specialized workflow — from navigating healthcare benefits to matching job seekers with WIOA programs across all 114 Missouri counties.

| If you are a... | You might start with... |
|---|---|
| Social worker or caseworker | access-to-services — navigate benefits, programs, and community resources for clients |
| Educator or curriculum designer | access-to-education — align lessons to Missouri K-12 standards with AI-powered planning |
| Domestic violence advocate | access-to-safety — safety planning, risk assessment, and crisis resource navigation |
| Real estate professional | access-to-housing — PropTech intelligence with Fair Housing compliance built in |
| Workforce development staff | access-to-jobs — WIOA navigation and job matching across Missouri |
| Healthcare navigator | access-to-health — Medicaid/Medicare guidance and benefits enrollment support |
| Aspiring entrepreneur | mo-start — Missouri startup guide with business launch tools |
A caseworker in Greene County used access-to-jobs to match a single mother with WIOA-funded childcare assistance and CDL training — navigating eligibility across three different programs in a single conversation.
A K-8 curriculum director used access-to-education to align an entire semester of science lessons to Missouri Learning Standards in under an hour, with differentiated activities for each grade level.
A domestic violence advocate used access-to-safety to build a personalized safety plan for a client, including local shelter contacts, protective order steps, and a technology safety checklist — all generated in one session.
Each scenario follows the same pattern: clone the repo, upload SKILL.md to a Claude Project, and start a conversation. Claude handles the domain expertise; you bring the context.
access-to is the central hub that connects a family of purpose-built AI tools. Each child repository is a standalone Claude Skill targeting a specific domain of human access.

Do I need to know how to code?
No. These are Claude Skills — structured prompts that run inside Claude.ai. You clone a repo, upload the
SKILL.md file to a Claude Project, and start a conversation. No programming required.
What is a Claude Skill?
A Claude Skill is a
SKILL.md file that teaches Claude a specialized workflow. It acts as project knowledge inside a Claude Project, guiding Claude to follow domain-specific steps — like generating court-ready documents or navigating WIOA workforce programs.
Does this cost anything?
The tools themselves are free and open source under MIT. You do need a Claude.ai account (free or paid) to use the skills. A paid Claude Pro plan is recommended for longer conversations and higher usage limits.
Which project should I start with?
See the Who Is This For? section above. Pick the project that matches your role or the access gap you're trying to close. Each project is standalone — you don't need to use them all.
Can I use these outside of Missouri?
Some projects are Missouri-specific (access-to-education, access-to-jobs, mo-start) because they reference state standards, WIOA regions, or Missouri county data. Others (access-to-health, access-to-safety, access-to-housing, access-to-services) are designed for nationwide use. Check the Scope column in the Project Directory.
How do the projects relate to each other?
They're independent but complementary. A person navigating one access gap often faces others — a domestic violence survivor may need safety planning, housing support, and healthcare navigation simultaneously. See the Cross-Project Relationships diagram for how they interconnect.

Doug Devitre — product builder, speaker, and founder of CoTrackPro
Based in the St. Louis metro area. Focused on family law technology, workforce development, and civic access tools for Missouri and beyond.
Every Access To project runs as a Claude Skill — structured AI prompts that turn Claude into a domain-specific assistant. No API keys, no backends, no infrastructure to maintain.
Open source under MIT unless otherwise noted in individual project repositories.
