Mithun Gowda B fdfb05e981 Version bump (#394)
* The -i flag has been removed from the `_run_command_cross_platform` function in `setup/components/mcp.py`.

* fix: Prevent installer from hanging during MCP installation

The SuperClaude installer was hanging during the installation of MCP components on non-Windows systems. This was caused by the use of an interactive shell (`-i`) when executing the `claude mcp add` command. The interactive shell would attempt to read from standard input, causing the process to be suspended by the shell.

This commit fixes the issue by removing the `-i` flag from the `_run_command_cross_platform` function in `setup/components/mcp.py`. This ensures that the installation process runs non-interactively and completes without hanging.

* fix: Add 'cmd /c' for Windows and refactor shell execution

This commit resolves an issue with `npx` command execution on Windows by prepending `cmd /c` to the command. It also refactors the shell command execution for non-Windows systems to use the `executable` argument in `subprocess.run` for a cleaner and more robust implementation.

* docs: Update Chrome DevTools MCP documentation

This commit updates the documentation for the Chrome DevTools MCP server to be more comprehensive and consistent with the existing documentation structure. The file `SuperClaude/MCP/MCP_Chrome-DevTools.md` has been updated with detailed information about the server's purpose, triggers, and usage examples.

* docs: Update documentation for Chrome DevTools MCP

This commit updates the main README.md and the MCP servers user guide to include information about the new Chrome DevTools MCP server. The documentation has been updated to reflect the new server count and provide details about the new server's functionality.

* chore: Bump version to 4.1.5

This commit updates the version number from 4.1.4 to 4.1.5 across the entire codebase.

This includes updates to:
- CHANGELOG.md
- Documentation files
- Configuration files (package.json, pyproject.toml)
- Source code fallbacks
- The main VERSION file

SuperClaude Documentation

🎯 Essential Understanding

SuperClaude is a Context Framework for Claude Code - it installs behavioral instruction files that Claude Code reads to enhance its capabilities.

How It Works

  1. Installation: Python CLI installs context files to ~/.claude/
  2. Commands: Type /sc:analyze → Claude Code reads analyze.md instruction file
  3. Behavior: Claude adopts behaviors defined in context files
  4. Result: Enhanced development workflows through context switching

🚀 Quick Start (5 Minutes)

New Users: Quick Start Guide →

# Recommended for Linux/macOS
pipx install SuperClaude && SuperClaude install

# Traditional method
pip install SuperClaude && SuperClaude install

# Then try: /sc:brainstorm "web app idea" in Claude Code

🤔 Common Misconceptions Clarified

"SuperClaude is an AI assistant"
SuperClaude is a configuration framework that enhances Claude Code

"I'm running SuperClaude"
You're running Claude Code with SuperClaude context loaded

"Claude Code executes; SuperClaude provides context my commands"
Claude Code executes everything; SuperClaude provides the instructions

"The .md files are documentation"
The .md files ARE the framework - active instruction sets


Remember: SuperClaude enhances Claude Code through context - it doesn't replace it or run alongside it. Everything happens within Claude Code itself.
