SuperClaude is a development framework designed to enhance Claude Code by providing specialized commands, cognitive personas, and structured development methodologies. It aims to improve token efficiency, enable domain-specific expertise, and promote evidence-based development practices for teams and technical leaders.

How It Works

SuperClaude v2 features a streamlined architecture with an @include reference system for configuration management, allowing for modularity and maintainability. Cognitive personas are integrated as universal flags (e.g., --persona-architect), enabling users to switch between specialized approaches for different tasks. It offers 19 commands covering the development lifecycle, from design and build to testing, security, and deployment, all with consistent flag behavior and inheritance.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Clone the repository and run ./install.sh. Options include --dir for custom locations, --update, --dry-run, --force, and --log.
• Prerequisites: Zero dependencies. Installs to ~/.claude/ by default.
• Documentation: ROADMAP.md

Highlighted Details

• 19 specialized commands for the full development lifecycle.
• 9 cognitive personas integrated as universal flags for domain-specific approaches.
• Token optimization with compression options and an @include template system.
• MCP integration for Context7, Sequential, Magic, and Puppeteer.
• Git checkpoint support for context preservation and safe experimentation.

Maintenance & Community

The project welcomes contributions for new personas, commands, patterns, and integrations. Community discussions are available via GitHub Discussions.

Licensing & Compatibility

The repository does not explicitly state a license in the README.

Limitations & Caveats

SuperClaude requires separate installation of Claude Code's MCP servers to utilize MCP-related flags. The README mentions a "Zero dependencies" claim for installation, but the functionality relies on Claude Code itself, which has its own dependencies.
