## 🎯 **Overview** SuperClaude is a **meta-programming configuration framework** that transforms Claude Code into a structured development platform through behavioral instruction injection and component orchestration. It provides systematic workflow automation with powerful tools and intelligent agents. ## Disclaimer This project is not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic. Claude Code is a product built and maintained by [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/). ## ⚑ **Quick Installation** ### **Minimal Setup - Works Immediately (No MCPs Required)** SuperClaude works **fully functional** without any MCP servers. Install and start using immediately: | Method | Command | Best For | |:------:|---------|----------| | **🐍 pipx** | `pipx install SuperClaude && pipx upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install` | **βœ… Recommended** - Linux/macOS | | **πŸ“¦ pip** | `pip install SuperClaude && pip upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install` | Traditional Python environments | | **🌐 npm** | `npm install -g @bifrost_inc/superclaude && superclaude install` | Cross-platform, Node.js users | ### **Recommended Setup - Enhanced Performance (Optional MCPs)** For **2-3x faster** execution and **30-50% fewer tokens**, optionally install MCP servers: ```bash # After basic installation, enhance with MCP servers: # - Mindbase: Cross-session memory (automatic) # - Serena: Faster code understanding (2-3x faster) # - Sequential: Token-efficient reasoning (30-50% fewer tokens) # - Context7: Curated official documentation # - Tavily: Optimized web search # See docs/mcp/mcp-integration-policy.md for MCP installation guides ``` **Performance Comparison:** - **Without MCPs**: Fully functional, standard performance βœ… - **With MCPs**: 2-3x faster, 30-50% fewer tokens ⚑
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Upgrading from SuperClaude V3 **If you have SuperClaude V3 installed, you SHOULD uninstall it before installing V4:** ```bash # Uninstall V3 first Remove all related files and directories : *.md *.json and commands/ # Then install V4 pipx install SuperClaude && pipx upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install ``` **βœ… What gets preserved during upgrade:** - βœ“ Your custom slash commands (outside `commands/sc/`) - βœ“ Your custom content in `CLAUDE.md` - βœ“ Claude Code's `.claude.json`, `.credentials.json`, `settings.json` and `settings.local.json` - βœ“ Any custom agents and files you've added **⚠️ Note:** Other SuperClaude-related `.json` files from V3 may cause conflicts and should be removed.
πŸ’‘ Troubleshooting PEP 668 Errors ```bash # Option 1: Use pipx (Recommended) pipx install SuperClaude # Option 2: User installation pip install --user SuperClaude # Option 3: Force installation (use with caution) pip install --break-system-packages SuperClaude ```
