ClaudeAdmin

A web-based admin console for managing your Claude Code configuration.

Once you work with more than a handful of projects, keeping track of skills, rules, memory files, MCP servers, and settings across ~/.claude/ becomes painful. ClaudeAdmin gives you a single UI to manage it all — no more hand-editing JSON and YAML.

Note: This is an independent community project. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic.

Features

• Dashboard — Overview with stats, recent changes, and project quick-access
• Projects — Browse projects, edit CLAUDE.md, manage rules, skills, memory, and permissions per project
• Project Advisor — AI-powered analysis with one-click actions (create CLAUDE.md, init memory, add rules)
• Skills — Create, edit, and browse global skills (YAML frontmatter + markdown)
• Skill Browser — Discover and install community skills with one click
• Rules — Manage global and project-level rules with conflict detection
• Memory — View and edit per-project memory files (MEMORY.md + topic files)
• MCP Servers — Full management with structured form (command/args/env) or raw JSON, health checks, and tool explorer
• MCP Browser — Discover and install popular MCP servers from a curated catalog
• Agents — Define custom Claude agents with specific prompts and tool configurations
• Plugins — Manage installed Claude Code plugins
• Launch Profiles — Reusable CLI configurations (model, effort, tools, budget)
• System Prompts — Create and manage reusable system prompts
• Timeline — Git-based version history of your ~/.claude/ configuration with diff viewer and restore
• Settings — Edit global settings, hooks, API key, storage overview
• Permissions — Review tool permissions, security warnings, and config health
• Plans — Manage plan files
• Sessions — Browse session history with search
• Analytics — Usage metrics, per-project insights, and CSV/JSON export
• Worktrees — View and manage git worktrees across projects
• Search — Full-text search across skills, rules, and configuration
• Help Chat — Context-aware AI assistant with conversation memory
• Backups — Browse, diff, and restore automatic backups
• 12 Languages — Full i18n: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Turkish

• No database — reads from and writes to the filesystem (~/.claude/)
• Automatic backups — created in ~/.claude/backups/ before every write operation, timestamped per file
• Claude API optional — works fully without ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
• Single binary — production build embeds the frontend via rust-embed

Security

ClaudeAdmin runs locally on your machine. It is designed for single-user use on a development workstation.

• Reads and writes only under ~/.claude/ and ~/.claude.json
• No telemetry, no analytics, no remote calls (except optional Anthropic API if configured)
• Optional authentication — set CLAUDE_ADMIN_TOKEN to enable Bearer token auth with session management
• RBAC — optional role-based access control via ~/.claude/users.json (Admin, Editor, Viewer)
• Security headers: CSP, X-Frame-Options DENY, X-Content-Type-Options nosniff
• Rate limiting on all API endpoints
• Path traversal protection

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Rust (stable)
• Trunk for WASM builds: cargo install trunk
• WASM target: rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

Development

# Clone and enter the project
git clone https://github.com/conradbruchmann/claude-admin.git
cd claude-admin

# Start the backend
cargo run -p claude-admin-backend

# In a separate terminal: start the frontend with hot-reload
cd claude-admin-frontend && trunk serve --port 9023

Backend: http://localhost:9022 — Frontend: http://localhost:9023

Production Build

# Build the WASM frontend
cd claude-admin-frontend && trunk build --release && cd ..

# Build the backend (embeds the frontend)
cargo build --release -p claude-admin-backend

# Run the single binary
./target/release/claude-admin-backend

Pre-built binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are available on the Releases page.

macOS Installation

Download the .dmg from the latest release, open it, and drag ClaudeAdmin.app into /Applications.

Since the app is not signed with an Apple Developer certificate, macOS Gatekeeper will block it on first launch. To allow it, run:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/ClaudeAdmin.app

Then double-click the app — it starts the server and opens http://localhost:9022 in your browser. The DMG contains a Universal Binary that runs natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Windows Installation

Download the ClaudeAdmin-*-Setup.exe from the latest release and run the installer. It installs to your user profile (no admin rights needed), creates Start Menu and Desktop shortcuts, and registers in "Apps & Features" for clean uninstall.

After installation, launch ClaudeAdmin from the Start Menu or Desktop — it starts the server and opens http://localhost:9022 in your browser.

Configuration Paths

ClaudeAdmin reads and writes the standard Claude Code configuration:

Path	Description
~/.claude.json	Project registry, MCP servers
~/.claude/settings.json	Global settings, hooks
~/.claude/skills/	Global skills
~/.claude/rules/	Global rules
~/.claude/plans/	Plan files
~/.claude/projects/<encoded>/memory/	Per-project memory
~/.claude/projects/<encoded>/rules/	Per-project rules
~/.claude/system-prompts/	Reusable system prompts
~/.claude/agents/	Custom agent definitions
~/.claude/launch-profiles/	CLI launch profiles
~/.claude/backups/	Automatic backups (timestamped)
~/.claude/users.json	RBAC user roles (optional)
