# create-claudify

Scaffold a production-grade Claude Code systems architecture into any project.

Turn Claude Code from a chatbot into an autonomous operating system with memory, hooks, commands, agents, and skills.

## Quick Start

```bash
npx create-claudify
```

Answer the prompts. That's it.

## Features

Choose what to include during setup:

| System | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Memory** | 4-layer architecture: global, project, personal, dynamic. Claude remembers across sessions. |
| **Commands** | Daily workflow rituals: `/start`, `/sync`, `/clear`, `/wrap-up`, `/audit`. |
| **Hooks** | Deterministic enforcement: block bad writes, monitor context usage, log all tool calls. |
| **Agents** | Specialist subagents: auditor (quality gate) + reviewer (read-only QA). |
| **Skills** | Domain knowledge loaded on demand: research, deploy, monitor, data-export, content. |
| **MCP** | Pre-configured MCP servers: context7 (live docs) + memory (knowledge graph). |

## Update

When we release new templates, commands, or improvements:

```bash
npx create-claudify update
```

This updates system files (hooks, commands, agents, skills) without touching your custom content (CLAUDE.md, memory.md, knowledge-base.md, settings.json).

## How It Works

1. **CLAUDE.md** is the routing file — Claude reads it first, follows links to everything else
2. **Memory system** gives Claude session state + institutional knowledge
3. **Hooks** enforce rules deterministically (no relying on instructions alone)
4. **Commands** are repeatable procedures triggered by name
5. **Agents** are specialist subprocesses with their own memory
6. **Skills** are domain knowledge loaded only when needed

## Requirements

- Node.js 18+
- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) installed
