# Everything Claude Code (ECC) — Setup Guide
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step-by-step instructions for setting up ECC on a new machine. Can be followed manually or by Claude.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Prerequisites
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Node.js + npm installed
|
||||||
|
- Git installed
|
||||||
|
- Claude Code CLI installed
|
||||||
|
- PowerShell (Windows) or Bash (macOS/Linux)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Step 1 — Clone and install
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Windows (PowerShell):**
|
||||||
|
```powershell
|
||||||
|
git clone https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code.git C:\Users\<USERNAME>\everything-claude-code
|
||||||
|
cd C:\Users\<USERNAME>\everything-claude-code
|
||||||
|
npm install
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**macOS/Linux (Bash):**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
git clone https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code.git ~/everything-claude-code
|
||||||
|
cd ~/everything-claude-code
|
||||||
|
npm install
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Step 2 — Run the installer
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run the installer **from inside the cloned repo**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Windows (PowerShell):**
|
||||||
|
```powershell
|
||||||
|
.\install.ps1 <languages>
|
||||||
|
# Example: .\install.ps1 python typescript
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**macOS/Linux (Bash):**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
./install.sh <languages>
|
||||||
|
# Example: ./install.sh python typescript
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Cross-platform (npm):**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
npx ecc-install <languages>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Available languages: `python`, `typescript`, `golang`, `swift`, `php`, `rust`, `cpp`, `csharp`, `java`, `kotlin`, `perl`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> **Note:** In legacy-compat mode the installer copies rules for ALL languages regardless of arguments. The extra rules are harmless — they sit in `~/.claude/rules/<lang>/` and only load when relevant.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What gets installed
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All files go to `~/.claude/` (global, applies to all projects):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Category | Location | Examples |
|
||||||
|
|----------|----------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| Rules | `~/.claude/rules/` | coding-style, testing, security (per language) |
|
||||||
|
| Agents | `~/.claude/agents/` | planner, architect, code-reviewer, tdd-guide, security-reviewer |
|
||||||
|
| Skills | `~/.claude/skills/` | python-patterns, tdd-workflow, e2e-testing, continuous-learning |
|
||||||
|
| Commands | `~/.claude/commands/` | `/plan`, `/tdd`, `/code-review`, `/verify`, `/learn` |
|
||||||
|
| Hooks | `~/.claude/hooks/` | auto-format, console-log check, cost tracker |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Step 3 — Add Bash tool to read-only agents
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Some agents (planner, architect) ship with only `Read, Grep, Glob` tools. To enable `ast-index` and other CLI tools, add `Bash` to their tool lists.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Edit these files in `~/.claude/agents/`:
|
||||||
|
- `planner.md`
|
||||||
|
- `architect.md`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Change the frontmatter `tools` line from:
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
tools: ["Read", "Grep", "Glob"]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
To:
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
tools: ["Read", "Grep", "Glob", "Bash"]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All other agents already have `Bash` in their tools list.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Step 4 — Configure Continuous Learning v2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4a. Add observation hooks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add the following to `~/.claude/settings.json` (merge into existing `hooks` key if one exists):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"hooks": {
|
||||||
|
"PreToolUse": [{
|
||||||
|
"matcher": "*",
|
||||||
|
"hooks": [{
|
||||||
|
"type": "command",
|
||||||
|
"command": "~/.claude/skills/continuous-learning-v2/hooks/observe.sh"
|
||||||
|
}]
|
||||||
|
}],
|
||||||
|
"PostToolUse": [{
|
||||||
|
"matcher": "*",
|
||||||
|
"hooks": [{
|
||||||
|
"type": "command",
|
||||||
|
"command": "~/.claude/skills/continuous-learning-v2/hooks/observe.sh"
|
||||||
|
}]
|
||||||
|
}]
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4b. Create the directory structure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
mkdir -p ~/.claude/homunculus/{instincts/{personal,inherited},evolved/{agents,skills,commands},projects}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4c. Verify the observe script exists
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ls ~/.claude/skills/continuous-learning-v2/hooks/observe.sh
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If missing, re-run the installer from Step 2.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Step 5 — Restart Claude Code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hooks and new agents only take effect after restarting Claude Code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Post-install verification
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run these commands inside Claude Code to verify:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Command | Expected result |
|
||||||
|
|---------|----------------|
|
||||||
|
| `/plan "test"` | Should invoke the planner agent |
|
||||||
|
| `/instinct-status` | Should show instinct status (empty on first run) |
|
||||||
|
| `/code-review` | Should invoke the code-reviewer agent |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Useful commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Command | Purpose |
|
||||||
|
|---------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| `/plan` | Create implementation plan before coding |
|
||||||
|
| `/tdd` | Test-driven development workflow |
|
||||||
|
| `/code-review` | Review code for quality issues |
|
||||||
|
| `/verify` | Run verification loop |
|
||||||
|
| `/learn` | Manually extract patterns mid-session |
|
||||||
|
| `/instinct-status` | View learned instincts |
|
||||||
|
| `/evolve` | Cluster instincts into skills/commands/agents |
|
||||||
|
| `/promote` | Promote project instincts to global scope |
|
||||||
|
| `/projects` | List known projects and instinct counts |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Known gotchas
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **`/plugin` commands don't exist** — The ECC README references `/plugin marketplace add` and `/plugin install` but Claude Code has no such CLI commands. Use the `install.ps1` / `install.sh` script instead.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **The `extraKnownMarketplaces` entry is cosmetic** — Adding ECC to `extraKnownMarketplaces` in `settings.json` does NOT enable it as a plugin and it will NOT appear in the enabled/disabled plugins list. The manual install is the actual installation method.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Windows: don't mix WSL and PowerShell** — If npm is installed on Windows, run everything in PowerShell with Windows paths (`C:\Users\...`). If using WSL, run everything in WSL with Linux paths (`~/...`). Mixing causes path resolution failures.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. **Windows paths in PowerShell** — Use `C:\Users\<USERNAME>\...`, NOT `/c/Users/...` (that's Git Bash / WSL syntax).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. **Agent model selection** — Each agent `.md` file in `~/.claude/agents/` supports a `model` field in frontmatter. Options: `haiku` (fast/cheap), `sonnet` (balanced), `opus` (deep reasoning). Choose based on agent complexity needs.
