Why CC-Best?

🎯 The Problem: Claude Code is powerful, but configuring workflows, coding standards, and safety rules from scratch takes hours.

✨ The Solution: Pre-configured roles (PM → Lead → Designer → Dev → QA) that mirror real team collaboration, with safety guardrails built-in.

⚡ Quick Start

# Add marketplace and install
/plugin marketplace add xiaobei930/cc-best
/plugin install cc-best@xiaobei930

# Verify installation (30 seconds)
/cc-best:status

# Start using
/cc-best:iterate "implement user authentication"

💡 Enable Hooks: After installation, run /cc-best:setup --hooks to activate safety guards and automation hooks. See Hooks Configuration for details.

Plugin vs Clone: Command Format

Installation	Command format	Example
Plugin ⭐	`/cc-best:command`	`/cc-best:iterate "add feature"`
Clone	`/command`	`/iterate "add feature"`

💡 Recommended: Install via plugin for automatic updates and easier management. All documentation uses plugin format (/cc-best:xxx). Clone users: run convert-to-local.js.

📦 Alternative: Clone for full customization

git clone https://github.com/xiaobei930/cc-best.git .claude
cd .claude && bash scripts/shell/init.sh

# Convert command format from /cc-best:xxx to /xxx
node scripts/node/convert-to-local.js

Use clone when you need to customize all files in your repo.

⚠️ Important: All documentation uses plugin format (/cc-best:xxx). Run the conversion script to update to local format (/xxx).

🗑️ Uninstall

# Remove the plugin
/plugin uninstall cc-best@xiaobei930

# Remove marketplace (optional)
/plugin marketplace remove xiaobei930/cc-best

No files are left behind.

What Happens Next?

After running /cc-best:iterate "implement user authentication", Claude will:

1. 📋 /cc-best:pm     → Analyze requirements, create task breakdown
2. 🏗️ /cc-best:lead   → Design technical solution
3. 💻 /cc-best:dev    → Write code, create tests
4. 🧪 /cc-best:qa     → Run tests, verify quality
5. ✅ /cc-best:commit → Commit changes with proper message

You just watch. Intervene only when needed.

Common Workflows

I want to...	Command	What Claude does
Build a feature	`/cc-best:iterate "add dark mode toggle"`	Full cycle: plan → code → test → commit
Fix a bug	`/cc-best:iterate "fix login timeout issue"`	Investigate → fix → verify → commit
Review code	`/cc-best:pm "review recent changes"`	Analyze code, suggest improvements
Learn the codebase	`/cc-best:pair`	Step-by-step exploration with explanations

Who Is This For?

You are...	Recommended mode	Why
Team with multiple roles	Full workflow	PM → Lead → Dev → QA mirrors your process
Solo developer	`/cc-best:iterate`	Let Claude handle the boring parts
Learning Claude Code	`/cc-best:pair`	Understand each step before proceeding
Need quick fixes	Direct commands	`/cc-best:dev "fix the typo"` for simple tasks

✨ Core Features

Feature	What it does
🎭 Role-Based Workflow	PM → Lead → Designer → Dev → QA — complete development cycle
🔄 Autonomous Mode	`/cc-best:iterate` runs tasks without intervention until completion
🛡️ Safety Hooks	Blocks `rm -rf /`, `git push --force`, and other risky commands
📐 Multi-Language Standards	8-dir layered structure: common + Python/frontend/Java/C#/C++/embedded/UI rules
🧠 Memory Bank	Persists progress and decisions across sessions
👥 Pair Programming	`/cc-best:pair` — step-by-step collaboration with 5 confirmation checkpoints
🔗 Knowledge Pipeline	observe → analyze → learn → evolve — self-improving knowledge loop
🌐 Cross-Platform	Windows, macOS, Linux — auto-detects package manager

While CC-Best is built for Claude Code, the methodology (Dao-Fa-Shu-Qi) and role-driven patterns are framework-agnostic and can be adapted for other AI coding assistants.

What Makes CC-Best Different

🎭 Role-Driven Development Pipeline

Not just a prompt template collection — CC-Best simulates real team collaboration:

7 roles with clear boundaries: PM → Lead → Designer → Dev → QA → Verify → Commit
Each role has explicit MUST/SHOULD/NEVER rules, output templates, and handoff protocols
Automatic flow: PM creates REQ → Lead reviews & creates DES/TSK → Dev implements → QA validates
Downstream correction (A3): Lead can adjust PM decisions; QA distinguishes implementation bugs from requirement assumption errors
Document traceability: REQ-XXX → DES-XXX → TSK-XXX numbered chain

🔄 Autonomous Iteration Engine

/cc-best:iterate enables fully autonomous development:

Read progress.md → Select role → Execute → Verify → Commit → Next task (no waiting)

Smart role selection: 8 state conditions determine which role activates
A1-A5 decision principles: Context inference (A1), decision recording (A2), downstream correction (A3), MVP fallback (A4), issue classification (A5)
4 strict stop conditions: All tasks done, user interrupt, fatal error, external dependency
Cross-session continuity: memory-bank + progress.md rolling window

🔗 Self-Evolving Knowledge Pipeline

CC-Best learns from your development patterns:

observe → analyze → learn → evolve

observe: observe-patterns.js hook automatically tracks tool usage patterns
analyze: /cc-best:analyze mines git history and usage data
learn: /cc-best:learn extracts reusable knowledge
evolve: /cc-best:evolve generates new commands, skills, or agents from learned patterns

Three Development Modes

Mode	Command	Use Case	Characteristics
Autonomous Iteration	`/cc-best:iterate`	Clear task list	Fully autonomous, no intervention needed
Pair Programming	`/cc-best:pair`	Learning, sensitive operations	Confirm each step, human-machine collaboration
Long-Running Loop	`/cc-best:cc-ralph`	Hour-level batch tasks	Requires `ralph-loop` plugin (`/plugin install ralph-loop@claude-plugins-official`)

How /cc-best:iterate selects roles automatically

Current State	Role Selected	Action
No requirements doc	`/cc-best:pm`	Requirement analysis
REQ has low-confidence items	`/cc-best:clarify`	Requirement clarification
Has REQ, no design	`/cc-best:lead`	Technical design
Has design, frontend tasks	`/cc-best:designer`	UI design guidance
Has tasks to implement	`/cc-best:dev`	Coding implementation
Code ready for verification	`/cc-best:verify`	Build + type + lint + test + security
Verification passed	`/cc-best:qa`	Functional acceptance

Core behavior: Task complete → Update progress.md → Read next task → Execute immediately (no waiting).

Stop conditions: All tasks done | User interrupt (Ctrl+C) | Fatal error | External dependency needed.

How /cc-best:pair collaboration works

5 mandatory confirmation checkpoints:

Checkpoint	Example
Understanding	"I understand you need X. Correct?"
Design choice	"Option A or B? I recommend A because..."
Destructive action	"About to delete X. Confirm?"
External call	"Will call production API. Proceed?"
Commit	"Commit message: '...'. OK?"

Learning mode: /cc-best:pair --learn "teach me unit testing" — Claude explains every step in detail.

Safe autonomy: Even in pair mode, Claude can freely read files, search code, run tests, and format code.

📖 Detailed usage guide: See MODES.md for comprehensive documentation on each mode, including when to use, how to control, and best practices.

Configuring Hooks

Edit .claude/settings.local.json:

{
  "hooks": {
    "PreToolUse": [
      {
        "matcher": "Bash",
        "hooks": [
          {
            "type": "command",
            "command": "python scripts/your-script.py",
            "timeout": 5
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Pre-configured Hooks

⚠️ Important: Hooks Require Manual Setup

Due to a known Claude Code issue, plugin hooks are disabled by default. To enable the safety guards and automation hooks, run:
/cc-best:setup --hooks
This command configures hooks with absolute paths. See the FAQ for more details.

All hooks default to Node.js for cross-platform compatibility. Python/Bash alternatives available in scripts/.

Trigger	Function	Script (Node.js)
PreToolUse	Validate dangerous commands	`validate-command.js`
PreToolUse	Confirm before git push	`pause-before-push.js`
PreToolUse	Protect sensitive files	`protect-files.js`
PreToolUse	Block random .md creation	`block-random-md.js`
PreToolUse	Long-running task warning	`long-running-warning.js`
PostToolUse	Auto-format code	`format-file.js`
PostToolUse	Check console.log	`check-console-log.js`
PostToolUse	TypeScript type check	`typescript-check.js`
SessionStart	Session health check	`session-check.js`
PreCompact	Save state before compact	`pre-compact.js`

💡 Best Practices

1. Keep CLAUDE.md Concise

Keep it under 100 lines
Put detailed specifications in rules/

2. Use the Memory Bank

Update progress.md after each task completion
Record important decisions in architecture.md

3. Context Management

Normal mode: Use /clear frequently to avoid context overflow
/cc-best:iterate mode: Don't clear manually, maintain loop continuity

4. Don't Overload MCP

Enable no more than 10 MCP servers per project
Use disabledMcpServers to disable unused ones

5. Regular Cleanup

Delete unused language rules
Remove unused commands

6. MCP Temporary Directory Management

MCP tools auto-create temporary directories in your project:

Directory	Source	Purpose
`.playwright-mcp/`	MCP auto-created	Playwright MCP temporary files
`.claude/mcp-data/`	MCP auto-created	MCP shared data
`*-mcp/`	MCP auto-created	Other MCP tool directories
`.claude/screenshots/`	Template-defined	Manually saved screenshots (meaningful)

Cleanup Script: Use cleanup.sh for regular maintenance:

# Preview files to delete (dry run)
bash scripts/shell/cleanup.sh --dry-run

# Clean files older than 7 days (default)
bash scripts/shell/cleanup.sh

# Clean files older than 3 days
bash scripts/shell/cleanup.sh --days 3

# Clean all MCP temporary files
bash scripts/shell/cleanup.sh --all

Quick Answers

Hooks not working?

Run /cc-best:setup --verify to diagnose. Common fixes:

Clone users: cp .claude/settings.local.json.example .claude/settings.local.json
Plugin users: Run /cc-best:setup --hooks to configure absolute paths
Windows: See FAQ.md for ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} workarounds

/cc-best:iterate vs /pair?

Mode	Control	Use Case
`/cc-best:iterate`	Fully autonomous	Clear task list
`/cc-best:pair`	Confirm each step	Learning, sensitive ops

How to stop /iterate?

Interrupt: Press Ctrl+C (or Esc in some terminals)
Pause: Type anything — Claude will wait for your input
Resume: Just continue the conversation

Claude saves progress to memory-bank/progress.md, so you can always resume later.

What if /cc-best:qa fails?

Claude will:

Analyze the failure
Return to /cc-best:dev to fix the issue
Re-run /cc-best:qa to verify

If stuck after 3 attempts, Claude will ask for your input. You can:

Provide hints: "Try checking the database connection"
Skip the test: "Skip this test for now"
Take over: "I'll fix this manually"

MCP configuration?

Edit .claude/settings.local.json:

{ "enabledMcpjsonServers": ["memory", "sequential-thinking"] }

Best practice: Enable ≤10 MCP servers per project.

CC-Best vs Superpowers?

Both are excellent. Choose based on your needs:

Scenario	Recommended	Why
Team collaboration	CC-Best	Role workflow (PM→Lead→Dev→QA)
Multi-language stack	CC-Best	7 language coding standard dirs
Chinese team	CC-Best	Bilingual docs
Solo developer	Superpowers	Lighter, git worktree automation
Need git worktree	Superpowers	Auto-creates isolated branches

💡 They can coexist! Use CC-Best for workflows, Superpowers for git automation.

🔧 Requirements

Dependency	Version	Notes
Claude Code	Latest recommended	Hooks require recent versions
Node.js	16+	For cross-platform hooks (default)
Python	3.8+	For some hook scripts
Bash/Git Bash	Any version	Optional for bash hooks

Optional MCP Servers

Some commands use MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools for enhanced functionality:

MCP Server	Used By	Purpose
Playwright	`/cc-best:designer`, `/cc-best:dev`, `/cc-best:pm`	Browser automation for UI testing and screenshots
Firecrawl	`/cc-best:pm`, `/cc-best:lead`	Web scraping for requirement research

Note: These are optional. Commands work without MCP servers but with reduced functionality. Install via Claude Code settings: Settings > MCP Servers

Supported Languages

Language	Rule File	Formatter	Test Framework
Python	`python-style.md`	Black + isort	pytest
Vue/TS/JS	`frontend-style.md`	Prettier	Vitest
C++	`cpp-style.md`	clang-format	Google Test
Java	`java-style.md`	google-java-format	JUnit
C#	`csharp-style.md`	dotnet format	xUnit/NUnit
Go	`backend/go.md`	gofmt	testing
Swift	`native/ios.md`	swift-format	XCTest

🌐 Note on Internal Files

CC-Best's internal files (commands/, rules/, skills/) are written in Chinese. This is intentional:

Claude understands Chinese - All Claude models can read and follow Chinese instructions perfectly
No translation burden - Maintaining dual-language internal files would be impractical
Focus on users - The README (this file) is fully English for international users

If you prefer English internal files, community contributions for English translations are welcome!
