A curated collection of projects and resources that combine [[Futures Studies]] methods with [[Claude Code]].

This note focuses specifically on **Claude Code as a tool**, not on AI and foresight in general. The appeal lies in the combination of agentic coding, structured prompts, and established foresight methods.

## Skills & Commands

### Futurist Analyst Skill

**URL:** [rysweet/MicrosoftHackathon2025](https://claude-plugins.dev/skills/@rysweet/MicrosoftHackathon2025-AgenticCoding/futurist-analyst)

**Core idea:** Comprehensive futures methodology as a Claude Code skill.

**Methods:** Futures Cone, Scenario Planning, Three Horizons, Wind Tunneling, Delphi, Weak Signals

**How it works:** 9-step analysis process from focal question through STEEP scanning and scenario development to strategic options. Contains detailed frameworks for each step with explicit references to established methodologies.

**Notable:** Academically grounded with references to Voros, Shell Method. Very comprehensive: more of a reference work than a quick-start tool.

### Future Scenario Generator

**URL:** [buildwithclaude.com](https://www.buildwithclaude.com/command/future-scenario-generator)

**Core idea:** Slash command for systematic scenario generation with plausibility scoring.

**Methods:** STEEP/PESTLE, Cross-Impact Analysis, Morphological Analysis, Wild Cards

**How it works:**
- Trend identification across multiple dimensions
- Scenario portfolio generation (baseline, optimistic, pessimistic, transformation)
- Plausibility scoring with weighted criteria (historical precedent, logical consistency, expert validation, empirical support)
- Strategy testing against scenarios

**Notable:** Structured output format. Good balance between methodological rigor and practical usability.

### Environmental Scanning & Foresight Skill

**URL:** [MCP Hub](https://www.aimcp.info/en/skills/8e4243d5-6b87-4b46-a445-0d2ac16a52d7)

**Core idea:** Systematic environmental scanning with early warning capabilities.

**Methods:** PESTLE Analysis, Horizon Scanning, Weak Signal Detection, Signposts

**How it works:** Structured scanning across political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental dimensions. Includes patterns for specific contexts (industry disruption, regulatory change, climate/sustainability, geopolitical risk) and guidance for setting adaptive triggers.

**Notable:** Practical orientation with clear “when to use” guidance. Good for ongoing monitoring rather than one-off analysis.

## MCP Servers

### Chronulus MCP

**URL:** [ChronulusAI/chronulus-mcp](https://github.com/ChronulusAI/chronulus-mcp)

**Core idea:** MCP server for AI-powered forecasting and prediction agents.

**Methods:** Quantitative Forecasting, Prediction Markets

**How it works:** Integrates with Claude Desktop and Claude.ai to provide forecasting capabilities. Focused on quantitative predictions rather than qualitative scenario development.

**Notable:** More suited for data-driven forecasting than strategic foresight. Consider as complement to scenario-based approaches.

## Repositories & Frameworks

### Shell Scenario Panel

**URLs:**
- Original: [dbmcco/shell-scenario-panel](https://github.com/dbmcco/shell-scenario-panel)
- Worldview Edition: [nraford7/shell-scenario-panel-worldview](https://github.com/nraford7/shell-scenario-panel-worldview)

**Core idea:** Claude Code-powered scenario planning using the Shell method.

**Methods:** Shell Scenarios, Worldview Mapping, Lens-World-Lens Architecture

**How it works:** An 8-phase workflow orchestrated by a moderator AI (“Dr. Michelle Wells”):
- **Phase 0:** Worldview elicitation: captures how you think about the topic before exploring scenarios
- **Phases 1-6:** Classic Shell scenario development with 6 domain specialists (ecology, geopolitics, technology, economics, cultural anthropology, contrarian)
- **Phase 7:** Worldview integration: connects scenarios back to your mental model

The Worldview Edition adds belief-by-belief analysis, crux mapping (connecting uncertainties to scenario boundaries), and personalized early warning signals.

**Notable:** Addresses a classic foresight challenge: scenarios that don't connect to users‘ mental models. The fork extends this with structured belief tracking and quality gates.

**Related:** [[Future Scenario]]

### VoltAgent Subagents Collection

**URL:** [VoltAgent/awesome-claude-code-subagents](https://github.com/VoltAgent/awesome-claude-code-subagents)

**Core idea:** Collection of specialized Claude Code subagents including foresight-relevant ones.

**Methods:** Trend Analysis, Scenario Planning, Competitive Intelligence

**How it works:** Provides ready-to-use subagent definitions for:
- `trend-analyst` – emerging trends and forecasting
- `research-analyst` – scenario planning, risk assessment, market research
- `competitive-analyst` – competitive intelligence
- `market-researcher` – market analysis and consumer insights

**Notable:** Building blocks rather than complete workflows. Good starting point for custom foresight agents.

### Future-Forecasting-and-Prediction

**URL:** [krisbolton/Future-Forecasting-and-Prediction](https://github.com/krisbolton/Future-Forecasting-and-Prediction)

**Core idea:** Resource collection for scenario creation and future modelling.

**Methods:** Delphi Method, Scenario Creation, Future Modelling

**How it works:** Curated collection of PDFs and resources including foundational texts like Helmer's “Analysis of the Future: The Delphi Method”.

**Notable:** Not Claude-specific, but valuable reference material for understanding the methodological foundations. Good for prompt engineering grounded in established methods.

## Guides & Workflows

### Using Claude for Geopolitical Scenario Development

**URL:** [Memia Substack](https://memia.substack.com/p/strategy-note-using-claude-3-opus)

**Core idea:** Concrete prompting workflow for accelerated scenario development.

**Methods:** Axes of Uncertainty, Quadrant Scenarios

**How it works:** System prompt positions Claude as strategic foresight analyst. User prompt feeds uncertainty axes and requests scenario generation with opportunities/threats for a specified entity. Author reports 10x acceleration compared to manual process.

**Notable:** Immediately applicable. Includes concrete prompt templates and real examples (geopolitical scenarios for New Zealand). Good starting point for adapting to own use cases.
