# cmdop-claude

Self-maintaining `.claude/` runtime for Claude Code. Keeps your project documentation accurate, your context lean, and your LLM session aware of what matters — automatically.

![cmdop-claude dashboard](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/commandoperator/cmdop-claude/main/assets/plugins.png)

**~$0.003 per full cycle** (scan → review → fix → map) using DeepSeek V3.2 via SDKRouter.

---

## What it does

Claude Code's `.claude/` folder is powerful but static. `cmdop-claude` makes it live:

- **Documentation review** — LLM finds stale docs, contradictions between docs and actual code, coverage gaps, and abandoned plans. Runs automatically once per day.
- **Project map** — annotates directories with one-sentence descriptions. Cached by SHA256; only changed dirs cost tokens.
- **Task queue** — review findings become structured tasks (`T-001.md`, `T-002.md`, ...). Top pending items injected into every prompt automatically.
- **Auto-fix** — LLM generates targeted file edits for any task. Preview diff or apply directly.
- **Project init** — bootstraps `CLAUDE.md` + rules from scratch for bare projects. Smart 3-phase pipeline: git context → filtered code snippets → cached tree summaries.
- **Plugin browser** — searches Smithery + Official MCP registries (~1000 plugins), installs to `~/.claude.json`.

Everything runs as Claude Code hooks. Zero manual steps after setup.

## How it works

```
UserPromptSubmit hook
  └─ inject-tasks
      ├─ auto-scan if >24h since last review
      │   ├─ LLM reviews .claude/ docs, plans, deps, commits
      │   └─ creates/updates tasks from findings
      └─ injects top 3 pending tasks into context

PostToolUse hook (Write|Edit)
  └─ map-update (debounced 60s)
      ├─ scans changed directories
      ├─ SHA256 cache → skips unchanged dirs (0 tokens)
      └─ LLM annotates new/changed dirs only

sidecar_init (MCP tool / CLI)
  ├─ Phase 1: GitContextService — finds all .git repos, classifies own vs external
  │   └─ LLM + hard rules → own_top_dirs set
  ├─ Phase 2: smart snippets filtered to own dirs
  │   ├─ entry points, Makefiles, configs
  │   └─ external dirs (@archive, @vendor, submodules) excluded
  └─ Phase 3: TreeSummarizer with MerkleCache
      ├─ TOON format (~60% fewer tokens than JSON)
      ├─ Merkle hash per dir → skip LLM for unchanged
      └─ parallel LLM chunks (asyncio)
```

## Install

```bash
pip install cmdop-claude

# With Streamlit dashboard
pip install cmdop-claude[ui]
```

Get your API key at **[sdkrouter.com](https://sdkrouter.com)** (free tier available).

---

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install cmdop-claude
cd your-project
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook setup
```

`setup` does everything in one shot:

- Saves your SDKRouter API key to `~/.claude/cmdop.json` (once for all projects)
- Registers the MCP server globally in `~/.claude.json`
- Installs Claude Code hooks in `.claude/settings.json`
- Configures `plansDirectory: ".claude/plans"`
- Generates `.claude/Makefile` with convenience commands
- Runs `init` if no `CLAUDE.md` found → generates docs via LLM

### Uninstall

```bash
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook unregister
```

---

## CLI

```bash
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook setup          # full setup (recommended)
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook register       # MCP + hooks + Makefile
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook unregister     # remove MCP from ~/.claude.json
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook scan           # manual review
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook status         # status JSON
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook map-update     # debounced map
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook inject-tasks   # auto-scan + pending tasks
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook fix <task_id> [--apply]
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook init           # bootstrap .claude/
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook acknowledge <id> [days]
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook activity [limit]
```

## Python API

```python
from cmdop_claude import Client

client = Client()

result = client.sidecar.generate_review()
fix    = client.sidecar.fix_task("T-001", apply=True)
init   = client.sidecar.init_project()
map_   = client.sidecar.generate_map()

plugins = client.plugins.search("slack", source="official")
client.plugins.install_plugin(plugins[0])
```

---

## Streamlit Dashboard

```bash
make run              # http://localhost:8501
make -C .claude dashboard  # from project with generated Makefile
```

10 tabs: Health Auditor, Skill Studio, MCP Studio, Plugin Browser, Hooks Manager, Sidecar Monitor, Project Map, Task Queue, Settings & Security, Trigger Graph.

**Plugin Browser** searches Smithery + Official MCP registries (~1000 plugins) with background index caching. Supports stdio and streamable-http servers.

## Configuration

### API Key

Read in this order:

1. `SDKROUTER_API_KEY` env var
2. `~/.claude/cmdop.json` → `sdkrouterApiKey` (written by `setup`)
3. Falls back silently — LLM features skip, read-only tools still work

```bash
export SDKROUTER_API_KEY=your-key
# or
echo '{"sdkrouterApiKey": "your-key"}' > ~/.claude/cmdop.json
```

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `SDKROUTER_API_KEY` | — | LLM backend key |
| `CMDOP_CLAUDE_DIR_PATH` | `.claude` | Path to .claude directory |
| `CLAUDE_CP_SIDECAR_MODEL` | `deepseek/deepseek-v3.2` | Model for review/fix/map |
| `CLAUDE_CP_SMITHERY_API_KEY` | — | Smithery registry key (optional) |
| `CMDOP_DEBUG_MODE` | `false` | Debug logging |

Init uses `Model.balanced(json=True)` from SDKRouter (best model for structured output). Everything else uses DeepSeek V3.2 (cheap, fast).
