claude-jacked 0.25.0

Smart reviewers, commands, and session search for Claude Code

claude-jacked

A control panel for Claude Code. Smart reviewers, security automation, session search, and a web dashboard to manage it all — without touching a config file.

---

What You Get

• Stop clicking "approve" on every terminal command — Claude Code asks permission for every bash command it runs. The security gatekeeper handles the safe ones automatically, so you only get interrupted when something is actually risky.
• Catch bugs before they ship — /dcr spawns parallel reviewers across 11 lenses (security, performance, logic, observability, data integrity, and more) in recursive waves until everything passes clean. 10 built-in agents, always available.
• Find any past conversation — Search your Claude history by describing what you were working on. Works across machines, works across teammates. (requires [search] extra)
• Manage everything from a web dashboard — Toggle features on and off, configure the security system, monitor decisions, track usage — all from your browser. No config files, no terminal commands.

---

Quick Start

Option 1: Let Claude Install It

Paste this into Claude Code and it handles everything:

Install claude-jacked for me. Use AskUserQuestion to ask me which features I want:

1. First check if uv and jacked are already installed (if uv is missing: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh)
2. Ask me which install tier I want:
   - BASE (Recommended): Smart reviewers, commands, behavioral rules, web dashboard
   - SEARCH: Everything above + search past Claude sessions across machines (requires Qdrant Cloud)
   - SECURITY: Everything above + auto-approve safe bash commands (fewer permission prompts)
   - ALL: Everything
3. Install based on my choice:
   - BASE: uv tool install claude-jacked && jacked install --force
   - SEARCH: uv tool install "claude-jacked[search]" && jacked install --force
   - SECURITY: uv tool install claude-jacked && jacked install --force --security
   - ALL: uv tool install "claude-jacked[all]" && jacked install --force --security
4. If I chose SEARCH or ALL, help me set up Qdrant Cloud credentials
5. Verify with: jacked --help
6. Launch the dashboard: jacked webux

Option 2: Manual Install

Run once from anywhere — installs globally to ~/.claude/ and applies to all your Claude Code sessions:

uv tool install claude-jacked
jacked install --force
jacked webux              # opens your dashboard at localhost:8321

Don't have uv? Install it first: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh (Mac/Linux) or powershell -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex" (Windows)

Option 3: Install as a Plugin (Teams)

Add to your team's Claude Code environment — no Python install needed:

/plugin marketplace add jackneil/claude-jacked
/plugin install jacked@jacked-marketplace

Commands are namespaced as /jacked:dcr, /jacked:qa, etc. Includes all 14 commands and 10 agents. Does not include the Python-powered features (dashboard, gatekeeper, session search) — use Option 1 or 2 for those.

Want more? Add optional extras:

# Add session search (needs Qdrant Cloud ~$30/mo)
uv tool install "claude-jacked[search]" --force && jacked install --force

# Add security gatekeeper (auto-approves safe bash commands, included in base install)
jacked install --force --security

# Everything (base + search)
uv tool install "claude-jacked[all]" --force && jacked install --force --security

---

Your Dashboard

The web dashboard ships with every install. Run jacked webux to open it.

Toggle Features On and Off

Enable or disable any of the 10 built-in code reviewers and 7 slash commands with one click. Each card shows what it does so you know what you're turning on.

Monitor Security Decisions

Every tool call the gatekeeper evaluates is logged — bash commands, file operations, web access, and more. See the decision, the method used, the full command, and the LLM's reasoning — all filterable by session and method. Approve commands directly from the log viewer with "Always Allow."

Track Everything

Approval rates, which evaluation methods are being used, command frequency, and system health — all at a glance.

More Dashboard Views

Security Gatekeeper Configuration — Configure the multi-tier evaluation pipeline, toggle per-tool interception, choose the LLM model, set the evaluation method, manage API keys, and edit the LLM prompt — all from the Gatekeeper tab.

Feature Toggles — Toggle hooks (session indexing, sound notifications) and knowledge documents (behavioral rules, skills, reference docs) on and off.

Commands — Enable or disable any of the 14 slash commands.

Permissions Panel — Manage allowed commands with project-level vs global scope. Add new allow rules or promote commands from the log viewer with "Always Allow."

Security Profiles — Export, import, and backup your gatekeeper configuration. Share security settings across machines or teams.

Analytics Dashboard — Charts, heatmap, command frequency breakdown, and drill-down by session or method.

Web Dashboard

jacked webux                    # Opens dashboard at localhost:8321
jacked webux --port 9000        # Custom port
jacked webux --no-browser       # Start server without opening browser

The dashboard is a local web app that runs on your machine. All data stays in ~/.claude/jacked.db — nothing is sent anywhere.

5 pages: Accounts, Installations, Settings (tabbed: Agents / Commands / Gatekeeper / Features / Plugins / Claude Code / Advanced / Profiles), Logs, Analytics.

---

Security Gatekeeper

The security gatekeeper intercepts all tool calls Claude makes — bash commands, file reads/writes, web access, and MCP tools — and decides whether to auto-approve, block, or ask you. Each tool type gets the appropriate level of scrutiny. Most decisions resolve in under 2 milliseconds.

How It Works

The hook uses an empty matcher to intercept every tool call, then dispatches by tool type:

• Bash commands go through the full multi-tier evaluation chain (see below)
• File tools (Read, Edit, Write, Grep, Glob) get path-safety checks for sensitive files and directories
• Web tools (WebFetch, WebSearch) are auto-approved with audit logging (read-only access)
• MCP tools are auto-approved with audit logging (user opted in via toggle)

Each tool can be individually enabled or disabled from the dashboard via the tool registry (Settings > Gatekeeper > Tools).

Bash Evaluation Chain

A multi-tier chain, fastest first:

Tier	Speed	What It Does
Deny patterns	<1ms	Blocks dangerous commands with labeled reasons (sudo, rm -rf, reverse shells, DROP, etc.)
Command categories	<1ms	Configurable per-category behavior — allow, ask, or evaluate (network, packages, git, docker, etc.)
Path safety	<1ms	Blocks bash commands targeting sensitive files (.env, .ssh/, credentials, keystores)
Permission rules	<1ms	Checks commands already approved in your Claude settings
Local allowlist	<1ms	Matches safe patterns (specific git/gh/docker/make subcommands, pytest, etc.)
LLM evaluation	~2s	Sends ambiguous commands to an LLM with file context for judgment

Commands containing shell operators (&&, ||, ;, |, etc.) always go to the LLM — they're never auto-approved by the local allowlist.

Always Allow

Approve commands directly from the Logs page. Click "Always Allow" on any logged command to add it to your permission rules. Permissions can be scoped to the current project or applied globally.

Install / Uninstall

jacked install --force --security

To remove just the security hook:

jacked uninstall --security

Configuration

Configure the gatekeeper from the dashboard (Settings > Gatekeeper tab) or the CLI:

• LLM model: Haiku (fastest, cheapest), Sonnet, or Opus
• Evaluation method: API First, CLI First, API Only, or CLI Only
• Custom prompt: Edit the LLM evaluation prompt from the dashboard or via jacked gatekeeper show

Faster LLM Evaluation

With an Anthropic API key, the gatekeeper calls the API directly (~2s) instead of spawning a CLI process (~8s):

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-..."

Or set the API key in the dashboard under Settings > Gatekeeper > API Key Override.

Debug Logging

Every decision is logged to ~/.claude/hooks-debug.log, tagged with session IDs:

2025-02-07T11:36:34 [87fd8847] EVALUATING: ls -la /tmp
2025-02-07T11:36:34 [87fd8847] LOCAL SAID: YES (0.001s)
2025-02-07T11:36:34 [87fd8847] DECISION: ALLOW (0.001s)

Or view decisions in the dashboard under Logs — filterable, searchable, exportable.

Permission Audit

If you've set broad permission wildcards in Claude Code (like Bash(python:*)), those commands bypass the gatekeeper entirely. The audit catches this:

jacked gatekeeper audit           # Scan permission rules
jacked gatekeeper audit --log     # Also review recent auto-approved commands

Sensitive data (passwords, API keys, tokens) is automatically redacted from all logs.

---

Session Search

Once installed with the [search] extra, search your past Claude sessions from within Claude Code.

Built-in Reviewers and Commands

Quick Commands

Type these directly in Claude Code:

Command	What It Does
/dc	Double-check — Reviews your recent work for bugs, security issues, and problems
/dcr	Recursive Review — Spawns parallel reviewers across 11 lenses (security, performance, logic, UX, observability, data integrity, etc.) in waves until all pass clean
/swarm	Swarm — Parallel implementation across 3-8 coordinated agents with file-level isolation
/swarm-research	Divergent Research — Spawns 2-5 independent agents from different angles, synthesizes proposals, then verifies + attacks with devil's advocate
/qa	QA Testing — Browser-based QA testing of UI changes with Playwright or Chrome DevTools MCP
/ux	UX Testing — Parallel browser-based UX checks across multiple pages and aspects simultaneously
/whats-next	Roadmap Advisor — Analyzes plans, issues, commits, and lifecycle stage to recommend highest-yield next work
/pr	Pull Request — Checks PR status, creates/updates PRs with proper issue linking
/release	Release — Full release pipeline: bump version, push, CI, GitHub Release, PyPI publish
/learn	Learn — Distills a lesson from the current session into a CLAUDE.md rule
/redo	Redo — Scraps the current approach and re-implements cleanly with full hindsight
/techdebt	Tech Debt — Scans for TODOs, oversized files, missing tests, dead code
/audit-rules	Audit Rules — Checks CLAUDE.md for duplicates, contradictions, stale rules
/jacked-setup	Repo Setup — Generates repo-specific configs for /whats-next, /qa, /ux, /dcr — faster repeat runs

Smart Reviewers

These work automatically when Claude thinks they'd help, or you can ask for them:

Reviewer	What It Catches
Double-check	Security holes, authentication gaps, data leaks
Code Simplicity	Over-complicated code, unnecessary abstractions
Error Handler	Missing error handling, potential crashes
Test Coverage	Untested code, missing edge cases

Example: After building a new feature:

Use the double-check reviewer to review what we just built

QA Browser Testing

The /qa command runs browser-based QA on UI changes from the current session. It detects modified UI files (JS, CSS, HTML, Vue, Svelte, etc.), opens the app in a browser, and runs visual checks, interactive tests, and console error scans. Auto-suggested via a Stop hook when UI files are modified. Requires Playwright MCP or Claude-in-Chrome.

---

Sound Notifications

Get audio alerts so you don't have to watch the terminal:

jacked install --force --sounds

• Notification sound — Plays when Claude needs your input
• Completion sound — Plays when Claude finishes a task

Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux. To remove: jacked uninstall --sounds

---

Uninstall / Troubleshooting

Uninstall

jacked uninstall && uv tool uninstall claude-jacked

Your cloud database stays intact — reinstall anytime without losing history.

Common Issues

"jacked: command not found" — Run uv tool update-shell and restart your terminal.

Search isn't working — You need Qdrant Cloud set up first. Ask Claude: Help me set up Qdrant Cloud for jacked

Sessions not showing up — Run jacked backfill to index existing sessions.

Windows errors — Claude Code on Windows uses Git Bash, which can have path issues. Ask Claude: Help me fix jacked path issues on Windows

---

Cloud Database Setup (Qdrant)

Only needed for the [search] extra. The base install works without Qdrant.

1. Install the search extra: uv tool install "claude-jacked[search]"
2. Go to cloud.qdrant.io and create an account
3. Create a cluster (paid tier ~$30/month required)
4. Copy your cluster URL and API key
5. Add to your shell profile:

export QDRANT_CLAUDE_SESSIONS_ENDPOINT="https://your-cluster.qdrant.io"
export QDRANT_CLAUDE_SESSIONS_API_KEY="your-api-key"

6. Restart terminal and run:

jacked backfill    # Index existing sessions
jacked status      # Verify connectivity

---

Security Note

Your conversations are sent to Qdrant Cloud (if using [search]). This includes everything you and Claude discuss, code snippets, and file paths.

Recommendations: Don't paste passwords or API keys in Claude sessions. Keep your Qdrant API key private. For sensitive work, consider self-hosting Qdrant.

Variable	Description
QDRANT_CLAUDE_SESSIONS_ENDPOINT	Your Qdrant Cloud URL
QDRANT_CLAUDE_SESSIONS_API_KEY	Your Qdrant API key

Optional:

Variable	Default	Description
JACKED_USER_NAME	git username	Your name for team attribution

Web Dashboard Architecture

The dashboard is a local web application:

• Backend: FastAPI (Python) serving a REST API
• Database: SQLite at ~/.claude/jacked.db
• Frontend: Vanilla JS + Tailwind CSS (no build step, no npm)
• Server: Uvicorn, runs at localhost:8321

All data stays on your machine. The dashboard reads Claude Code's configuration files (~/.claude/settings.json, ~/.claude/agents/, etc.) and provides a visual interface for managing them.

API endpoints: /api/health, /api/features, /api/settings/*, /api/auth/*, /api/analytics/*, /api/logs/*, /api/profiles/*, /api/permissions/*

Indexing: After each Claude response, a hook automatically indexes the session. The indexer extracts plan files, agent summaries, labels, and user messages.

Retrieval modes: smart (default), full, plan, agents, labels

All Agents

Agent	Description
double-check-reviewer	CTO/CSO-level review for security, auth gaps, data leaks
code-simplicity-reviewer	Reviews for over-engineering and unnecessary complexity
defensive-error-handler	Audits error handling and adds defensive patterns
git-pr-workflow-manager	Manages branches, commits, and PR organization
pr-workflow-checker	Checks PR status and handles PR lifecycle
issue-pr-coordinator	Scans issues, groups related ones, manages PR workflows
test-coverage-engineer	Analyzes and improves test coverage
test-coverage-improver	Adds doctests and test files systematically
readme-maintainer	Keeps README in sync with code changes
wiki-documentation-architect	Creates/maintains GitHub Wiki documentation

Hook Configuration

The jacked install command adds hooks to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "hooks": {
    "Stop": [
      {
        "matcher": "",
        "hooks": [{"type": "command", "command": "jacked index --repo \"$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR\"", "async": true}]
      },
      {
        "matcher": "",
        "hooks": [{"type": "command", "command": "python /path/to/qa_suggest.py", "async": true}]
      }
    ],
    "PreToolUse": [{
      "matcher": "",
      "hooks": [{"type": "command", "command": "python /path/to/security_gatekeeper.py", "timeout": 30}]
    }]
  }
}

The PreToolUse matcher is an empty string (catch-all) — the gatekeeper script internally dispatches by tool type and checks the tool registry for per-tool enable/disable settings.

Guided Install Prompt (Full)

Copy this into Claude Code for a guided installation:

Install claude-jacked for me. Use the AskUserQuestion tool to guide me through options.

PHASE 1 - DIAGNOSTICS:
- Detect OS (Windows/Mac/Linux)
- Check: uv --version (if missing: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh on Mac/Linux, powershell -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex" on Windows)
- Check: jacked --version (to see if already installed)
- Check ~/.claude/settings.json for existing hooks

PHASE 2 - ASK USER PREFERENCES:
Use AskUserQuestion with these options:

Question: "Which jacked features do you want?"
Options:
- BASE (Recommended): Smart reviewers, commands, behavioral rules, web dashboard. No external services needed.
- SEARCH: Everything in BASE + search past Claude sessions across machines. Requires Qdrant Cloud (~$30/mo).
- SECURITY: Everything in BASE + auto-approve safe bash commands. Fewer permission prompts.
- ALL: Everything. Requires Qdrant Cloud + Anthropic API key for fastest security evaluation.

PHASE 3 - INSTALL:
Based on user choice:

Windows Troubleshooting

Claude Code uses Git Bash on Windows, which can cause path issues.

If "jacked" isn't found:

uv tool update-shell
# Then restart your terminal

If paths are getting mangled:

# Find the uv tools bin directory
uv tool dir
# Use the full path to jacked if needed
