PAI is a personal AI infrastructure layer that sits on top of Claude Code, providing:

• Skills System - Modular context packages that load relevant knowledge on-demand
• Hook System - Event-driven automation for session lifecycle management
• Memory System - Session history, learnings, and signal capture
• Custom Commands - Slash commands for common workflows

• [Claude Code CLI](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) installed and authenticated
• [Bun](https://bun.sh/) runtime (for hooks and tools)
• macOS or Linux (Windows via WSL)

1. Clone the repository

```bash

git clone https://github.com/robdtaylor/personal-ai-infrastructure.git ~/.claude

```

> Note: If you already have a ~/.claude directory, back it up first:

> ```bash

> mv ~/.claude ~/.claude-backup

> ```

2. Copy and configure settings

```bash

cd ~/.claude

cp settings.json.template settings.json

```

Edit settings.json to customize:

• Environment variables
• Hook configurations
• Permission settings

3. Install dependencies

```bash

# Install Bun if not already installed

curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash

# Install hook dependencies

cd ~/.claude/hooks && bun install

```

4. Personalize your setup

Edit the following files in skills/CORE/USER/:

| File | Purpose |

|------|---------|

| BASICINFO.md | Your contact information |

| CONTACTS.md | Directory of people you work with |

| ABOUTME.md | Personal background for AI context |

| DAIDENTITY.md | AI assistant name and personality |

| TECHSTACKPREFERENCES.md | Your preferred technologies |

5. Verify installation

```bash

claude

```

You should see the PAI context load at session start.
