Claude Code Harness (CCH) — Claude Code substrate adapter for AI King ecosystem (MIT)

claude-code-harness

Claude Code substrate adapter for the AI King agent governance ecosystem — wires AI King's guards / hooks / ZIQ retrieval into Claude Code's hook + skill + settings layers without forcing AGPL obligations onto your private hook scripts.

Install

pip install "aiking[cch]"
# or directly:
pip install claude-code-harness

What this adapter does

Claude Code already ships its own substrate primitives (hook system, skill registry, MCP, settings JSON). claude-code-harness bridges those primitives to the AI King engine (aiking-core) so you get:

• AI King's red/blue Opus dispatch chain available from Claude Code hook handlers
• ZIQ router + FieldRead RAG accessible from any Claude Code Skill
• Shared FEATURE_META / config / state_store across Claude Code sessions and other substrates running CCH-compatible agents

Why MIT (not AGPL)

The engine (aiking-core) is AGPL-3.0-or-later because mass distribution of the engine itself is what AI King protects. The substrate adapter — this package — is MIT so corporate / closed-source adopters can integrate without auditing their own settings JSON for AGPL-incompatible terms.

Phase 2 status (2026-05-12)

This package is a namespace placeholder during Phase 2 of the AI King rebrand. Public API stubs (register_hooks, settings_snippet, skill_loader) land in Wave UH-3b once the remaining governance modules finish migrating into aiking-core.
