CircleCI Chunk Skill for Claude Code: Choose a Local CI Validation Workflow
Learn when to use the Chunk CLI or the CircleCI UI. Rehearse one named validation hook with a mock repository and keep the exercise separate from cloud pipelines.
中文Setup for Claude Code
Use Claude Code in a disposable project. A live terminal workflow needs a compatible Chunk CLI and the relevant CircleCI access. The example only proposes local validation and uses no organization credentials.
- Open the fixed CircleCI Public Skills commit below and copy plugins/chunk/skills/chunk into .claude/skills/chunk in a practice project, keeping references with the main skill.
- Open Claude Code in the project and select /chunk. Read the bundled CLI reference before trying a named validation hook. Confirm that any local hook you plan to run is the one you reviewed.
Example task
Create a pretend project brief declaring one local validation hook named tests. Ask /chunk to choose the appropriate workflow, explain how to list the configured hooks, and show the command for that one named hook. Stop after the preview.Expected result
The answer selects the CLI path and proposes chunk validate --list followed by chunk validate tests when the configured hook is present. It reports any missing CLI or hook configuration before execution. No CircleCI pipeline is rerun.

Frequently asked question
When is Chunk's web UI a better fit than its CLI?
The web UI handles organization and environment setup and pipeline actions. The CLI is the practical starting point for reviewed local validation hooks and terminal workflows.
