CodePlate

Templates for agent-built software

Starter code your AI agent can build on.

Every CodePlate template is a working game or app that ships with an agent brief, step-by-step recipes, and checks the agent runs after every change. Download one, hand it to Claude, and describe what you want.

Free. No account. Ship what you build.

YouThis is a match-3 template. Read AGENTS.md, then let's turn it into my game: an ocean theme called "Reef Rush". My tile art is in ~/art/reef.
AgentI've read the brief and the checks pass. Before I change anything: should the six reef tiles map to the six colors in this order, and do you want to keep the 10 levels?
YouYes, and add five harder levels.
AgentDone: new tiles and five levels, balanced with the template's balance report. All 47 checks pass. Screenshot attached.

What's in every template

A working project

A complete, polished game or app, not a skeleton. It runs on day one, so the agent changes something that works instead of starting from nothing.

An agent brief

AGENTS.md covers the architecture, the rules that keep the project healthy, and what to ask you before changing anything.

Recipes

Step-by-step guides for the changes people actually ask for: reskin, new levels, new mechanics, scoring, export. Each ends with a verification step.

Checks the agent runs

One headless command tests the rules, the screens and the assets, so the agent knows right away when something breaks.

Eyes for the agent

Screenshot and report tools let the agent look at its own work and tune difficulty with data.

Clean licensing

Original code and assets. Ship commercially with no attribution required.

How it works

  1. 1

    Download

    Pick a template and unzip it where your project will live. Free, no account needed.

  2. 2

    Open it with your agent

    Start Claude Code (or any agent that reads AGENTS.md) in the folder.

  3. 3

    Describe your game

    The agent interviews you, records your decisions in the project, and builds step by step, running the checks after each change.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. Every template is free to download and use right now.

Can I sell what I make?

Yes. Games and apps built from a template are yours to ship and sell, with no attribution needed. You can't resell the template itself as a template. Read the license.

Which agents does it work with?

Templates are built and tested with Claude Code. Any coding agent that reads AGENTS.md (or CLAUDE.md) and can run commands will work.

Do I need to know how to code?

No, though it helps. Templates are designed for agent-driven and agent-assisted work. You'll need to install the engine (for example Godot), run your agent, and try what it builds.

Can my agent fetch templates directly?

Yes. /llms.txt and /catalog.json list every template with a stable download URL, so you can just say "get CodePlate's godot-idle".
