SuperClaude Commands Guide 🛠️

💡 Don't Overthink It - SuperClaude Tries to Help

The truth about these 21 commands: You don't need to memorize them. Just start with /sc:analyze or /sc:implement and see what happens!

Here's how it usually works:

• Type / in Claude Code → See available commands
• Use basic ones like /sc:analyze, /sc:build, /sc:improve
• SuperClaude tries to pick helpful tools and experts for each situation
• More commands become useful as you get comfortable

Auto-activation is pretty neat 🪄 - SuperClaude attempts to detect what you're trying to do and activate relevant specialists (security expert, performance optimizer, etc.) without you managing it. Usually works well! 😊

Development Commands 🔨

/workflow - Implementation Workflow Generator 🗺️

What it does: Analyzes PRDs and feature requirements to create comprehensive step-by-step implementation workflows.

The helpful part: Takes your PRD and breaks it down into a structured implementation plan with expert guidance, dependency mapping, and task orchestration! 🎯

When to use it:

• Starting a new feature from a PRD or specification
• Need a clear implementation roadmap
• Want expert guidance on implementation strategy
• Planning complex features with multiple dependencies

The magic: Auto-activates appropriate expert personas (architect, security, frontend, backend) and MCP servers (Context7 for patterns, Sequential for complex analysis) based on your feature requirements.

Examples:

/sc:workflow docs/feature-100-prd.md --strategy systematic --c7 --sequential
/sc:workflow "user authentication system" --persona security --output detailed
/sc:workflow payment-api --strategy mvp --risks --dependencies

What you get:

• Roadmap Format: Phase-based implementation plan with timelines
• Tasks Format: Organized epics, stories, and actionable tasks
• Detailed Format: Step-by-step instructions with time estimates
• Risk Assessment: Potential issues and mitigation strategies
• Dependency Mapping: Internal and external dependencies
• Expert Guidance: Domain-specific best practices and patterns

/implement - Feature Implementation

What it does: Implements features, components, and functionality with intelligent expert activation.

The helpful part: SuperClaude auto-activates the right experts (frontend, backend, security) and tools based on what you're implementing! 🎯

When to use it:

• Creating new features or components (replaces v2's /build functionality)
• Implementing APIs, services, or modules
• Building UI components with modern frameworks
• Developing business logic and integrations

Basic syntax:

/sc:implement user authentication system      # Implement complete feature
/sc:implement --type component LoginForm      # Create specific component  
/sc:implement --type api user-management      # Build API endpoints
/sc:implement --framework react dashboard     # Framework-specific implementation

Useful flags:

• --type component|api|service|feature|module - Implementation type
• --framework react|vue|express|django|etc - Target framework
• --safe - Conservative implementation approach
• --iterative - Step-by-step development with validation
• --with-tests - Include test implementation
• --documentation - Generate docs alongside code

Real examples:

/sc:implement user authentication --type feature --with-tests
/sc:implement dashboard component --type component --framework react
/sc:implement REST API for orders --type api --safe
/sc:implement payment processing --type service --iterative
/sc:implement search functionality --framework vue --documentation

Auto-activation patterns:

• Frontend: UI components, React/Vue/Angular → frontend persona + Magic MCP
• Backend: APIs, services, databases → backend persona + Context7
• Security: Auth, payments, sensitive data → security persona + validation
• Complex features: Multi-step implementations → Sequential MCP + architect persona

Gotchas:

• Specify --type for better results (component vs service vs feature)
• Use --framework when working with specific tech stacks
• Try --safe for production code or --iterative for complex features
• Remember: this replaces v2's /build for actual code implementation

Troubleshooting Command Issues

Command not working as expected?

• Try adding --help to see all options
• Use --preview or --safe flags when available
• Start with smaller scope (single file vs. entire project)

Analysis taking too long?

• Use --focus to narrow scope
• Try --depth quick instead of deep analysis
• Analyze smaller directories first

Build/test commands failing?

• Make sure your tools are in PATH
• Check that config files are in expected locations
• Try running the underlying commands directly first

Not sure which command to use?

• Use /index to browse available commands
• Look at the Quick Reference table above
• Try the most specific command first, then broader ones

---

Final Notes 📝

The real truth about these commands 💯:

• Just try them - You don't need to study this guide first
• Start with the basics - /analyze, /build, /improve cover most needs
• Let auto-activation work - SuperClaude usually picks helpful experts
• Experiment freely - Use --preview if you want to see what would happen first

Still rough around the edges:

• Complex orchestration (spawn, task) can be a bit flaky
• Some analysis depends heavily on your project setup
• Error handling could be better in some commands

Getting better all the time:

• We actively improve commands based on user feedback
• Newer commands (analyze, improve) tend to work better
• Auto-activation keeps getting smarter

Don't stress about memorizing this 🧘‍♂️

• SuperClaude is designed to be discoverable through use
• Type / to see available commands
• Commands suggest what they can do when you use --help
• The intelligent routing handles most of the complexity
