Open source · aligned with ISO 59000 · built by Circular Club

Your agent team for a plant’s circular transition.

The Circular Transition Kit turns the 7-stage method of the Circular Club Playbook into a team of Claude agents that works with you: it diagnoses your plant, chooses opportunities and builds the value case with NPV and IRR, using your data.

Claude Code · two-minute quick start
> /plugin marketplace add circular-club/circular-transition-kit> /plugin install circular-transition-kit@circular-club> /circular-start My Company✓ Project file created · Transition director online · 7 specialists ready

What it does

  • Diagnoses where your plant loses value, with a mass balance and a circularity baseline.

  • Checks technical feasibility against your actual equipment, with a traffic light per idea.

  • Chooses two or three opportunities among 17 circular business sub-models.

  • Builds the value case with your rates: NPV, IRR and payback computed, never by hand.

  • Reviews every deliverable with an independent critical reviewer before it reaches you.

Principles

R1Business case first

No recommendation without an economic estimate, or without stating which data is missing.

R2Labelled evidence

Every case and figure carries its level: verified, adapted, to validate or illustrative.

R3Context before recipe

Cost of capital, informality and infrastructure shape the answer.

R4Your data first

The kit asks for your rates, costs and prices; a reference value is labelled as such.

R5Timeless

Instrument types, never named calls with dates.

R6Clear limits

Legal, tax and site-specific technical matters are validated with a local professional.

Coverage

25 reference cases in the 2 pilot chains, each with its evidence level. The other five chains arrive in v0.5.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

Nothing. The kit is open source. During the pilot the repository is private only so we can work closely with the first testers; it becomes public with version 1.0.

What do I need to use it?

A free GitHub account and Claude Code. Installing takes three commands. The Claude.ai version arrives in v0.5.

Can I use it with my clients as a consultant?

Yes. The additional permission allows consulting, advisory and training use, including paid work, crediting “Circular Transition Kit by Circular Club”. Reselling it as a product or publishing it under another brand is not allowed.

What happens to my company’s data?

The kit has no telemetry: it sends no data by itself. Your files stay in your folder, and Claude processes the conversation as usual.

Does it work in Africa or Asia?

Yes, for the two pilot chains — food and beverage, and packaging and plastics — with cases from Latin America, Africa and South and Southeast Asia. When it has no case for your chain or region, it says so.

Is it ISO certified?

No. It is aligned with ISO 59004, 59010 and 59020, and it does not replace an audit or a certification.
