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 Commands Guide
SuperClaude provides 25 commands for Claude Code: `/sc:*` commands for workflows and `@agent-*` for specialists.
## Command Types
| Type | Where Used | Format | Example |
|------|------------|--------|---------|
| **Slash Commands** | Claude Code | `/sc:[command]` | `/sc:implement "feature"` |
| **Agents** | Claude Code | `@agent-[name]` | `@agent-security "review"` |
| **Installation** | Terminal | `SuperClaude [command]` | `SuperClaude install` |
## Quick Test
```bash
# Terminal: Verify installation
python3 -m SuperClaude --version
# Claude Code CLI verification: claude --version
# Claude Code: Test commands
/sc:brainstorm "test project" # Should ask discovery questions
/sc:analyze README.md # Should provide analysis
```
**Workflow**: `/sc:brainstorm "idea"``/sc:implement "feature"``/sc:test`
## 🎯 Understanding SuperClaude Commands
## How SuperClaude Works
SuperClaude provides behavioral context files that Claude Code reads to adopt specialized behaviors. When you type `/sc:implement`, Claude Code reads the `implement.md` context file and follows its behavioral instructions.
**SuperClaude commands are NOT executed by software** - they are context triggers that modify Claude Code's behavior through reading specialized instruction files from the framework.
### Command Types:
- **Slash Commands** (`/sc:*`): Trigger workflow patterns and behavioral modes
- **Agent Invocations** (`@agent-*`): Manually activate specific domain specialists
- **Flags** (`--think`, `--safe-mode`): Modify command behavior and depth
### The Context Mechanism:
1. **User Input**: You type `/sc:implement "auth system"`
2. **Context Loading**: Claude Code reads `~/.claude/SuperClaude/Commands/implement.md`
3. **Behavior Adoption**: Claude applies domain expertise, tool selection, and validation patterns
4. **Enhanced Output**: Structured implementation with security considerations and best practices
**Key Point**: This creates sophisticated development workflows through context management rather than traditional software execution.
### Installation vs Usage Commands
**🖥️ Terminal Commands** (Actual CLI software):
- `SuperClaude install` - Installs the framework components
- `SuperClaude update` - Updates existing installation
- `SuperClaude uninstall` - Removes framework installation
- `python3 -m SuperClaude --version` - Check installation status
**💬 Claude Code Commands** (Context triggers):
- `/sc:brainstorm` - Activates requirements discovery context
- `/sc:implement` - Activates feature development context
- `@agent-security` - Activates security specialist context
- All commands work inside Claude Code chat interface only
> **Quick Start**: Try `/sc:brainstorm "your project idea"` → `/sc:implement "feature name"` → `/sc:test` to experience the core workflow.
## 🧪 Testing Your Setup
### 🖥️ Terminal Verification (Run in Terminal/CMD)
```bash
# Verify SuperClaude is working (primary method)
python3 -m SuperClaude --version
# Example output: SuperClaude 4.1.5
# Claude Code CLI version check
claude --version
# Check installed components
python3 -m SuperClaude install --list-components | grep mcp
# Example output: Shows installed MCP components
```
### 💬 Claude Code Testing (Type in Claude Code Chat)
```
# Test basic /sc: command
/sc:brainstorm "test project"
# Example behavior: Interactive requirements discovery starts
# Test command help
/sc:help
# Example behavior: List of available commands
```
**If tests fail**: Check [Installation Guide](../Getting-Started/installation.md) or [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting)
### 📝 Command Quick Reference
| Command Type | Where to Run | Format | Purpose | Example |
|-------------|--------------|--------|---------|----------|
| **🖥️ Installation** | Terminal/CMD | `SuperClaude [command]` | Setup and maintenance | `SuperClaude install` |
| **🔧 Configuration** | Terminal/CMD | `python3 -m SuperClaude [command]` | Advanced configuration | `python3 -m SuperClaude --version` |
| **💬 Slash Commands** | Claude Code | `/sc:[command]` | Workflow automation | `/sc:implement "feature"` |
| **🤖 Agent Invocation** | Claude Code | `@agent-[name]` | Manual specialist activation | `@agent-security "review"` |
| **⚡ Enhanced Flags** | Claude Code | `/sc:[command] --flags` | Behavior modification | `/sc:analyze --think-hard` |
> **Remember**: All `/sc:` commands and `@agent-` invocations work inside Claude Code chat, not your terminal. They trigger Claude Code to read specific context files from the SuperClaude framework.
