cmdop-claude 0.1.14

Self-maintaining .claude/ runtime — LLM-powered doc review, project map, task queue, auto-fix, and project init

cmdop-claude

Self-maintaining .claude/ runtime. Turns a static config folder into living project memory — LLM-powered documentation review, project map generation, task queue, auto-fix, MCP plugin management, and project initialization.

$0.001 per full cycle (scan → review → fix → map) using DeepSeek V3.2 via SDKRouter.

The full automation chain:

1. On every prompt (UserPromptSubmit hook):

   • Check if last review was >24h ago → auto-run LLM review
   • Review finds stale docs, contradictions, gaps, abandoned plans → creates tasks
   • Top 3 pending tasks injected into context

2. On every file edit (PostToolUse hook):

   • Debounced map update (skip if <60s since last)
   • LLM annotates new/changed directories
   • Unchanged dirs served from SHA256 cache (0 tokens)

3. On demand (MCP tools / CLI):

   • sidecar_fix → LLM generates targeted fix for a task
   • sidecar_init → bootstraps CLAUDE.md + rules for bare projects
   • sidecar_acknowledge → suppress noisy items for N days

4. Everything is logged to activity.jsonl with token counts

Install

pip install cmdop-claude

# With Streamlit dashboard
pip install cmdop-claude[ui]

# Dev
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick Start

MCP Server (12 tools for Claude Code)

pip install cmdop-claude
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook register    # MCP → ~/.claude.json + hooks → .claude/settings.json

One command does everything:

• Registers MCP server globally in ~/.claude.json
• Sets up project hooks in .claude/settings.json (map-update on Write/Edit, inject-tasks+auto-scan on prompt)
• Configures plansDirectory: ".claude/plans" so Claude Code saves plans in the project
• Generates .claude/Makefile with convenience commands (dashboard, scan, map, status, etc.)
• Auto-runs init if no CLAUDE.md exists (generates docs + rules via LLM)

To set up another project (MCP already registered):

python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook setup        # hooks + plans + Makefile + auto-init

To unregister:

python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook unregister

Tool	LLM?	Description
sidecar_scan	yes	Run documentation review
sidecar_review	no	Read current review
sidecar_status	no	Last run, pending items, token usage
sidecar_acknowledge	no	Suppress item for N days
sidecar_map	yes	Generate/update project map
sidecar_map_view	no	Read current map
sidecar_tasks	no	List tasks by status
sidecar_task_update	no	Update task status
sidecar_task_create	no	Create manual task
sidecar_fix	yes	Generate fix for a task (dry-run or apply)
sidecar_init	yes	Bootstrap .claude/ for bare projects
sidecar_activity	no	View recent action log (init, review, fix, map)

CLI

python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook register             # MCP + project hooks + Makefile
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook setup                # project hooks + Makefile only
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook unregister           # remove MCP from ~/.claude.json
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook scan                 # manual review
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook status               # status JSON
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook map-update           # debounced map
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook inject-tasks         # auto-scan + pending tasks
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook fix <task_id> [--apply]
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook init                 # bootstrap .claude/
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook acknowledge <id> [days]
python -m cmdop_claude.sidecar.hook activity [limit]

Python API

from cmdop_claude import Client

client = Client()

# Review → find issues
result = client.sidecar.generate_review()

# Fix a specific task
fix = client.sidecar.fix_task("T-001", apply=True)

# Init bare project
init = client.sidecar.init_project()

# Generate project map
project_map = client.sidecar.generate_map()

# Plugin browser
plugins = client.plugins.search("slack", source="official")
client.plugins.install_plugin(plugins[0])
client.plugins.get_installed_names()

Streamlit Dashboard

make run   # http://localhost:8501
# or from a project with generated Makefile:
make -C .claude dashboard

10 tabs: Health Auditor, Skill Studio, MCP Studio, Plugin Browser, Hooks Manager, Sidecar Monitor, Project Map, Task Queue, Settings & Security, Trigger Graph.

Plugin Browser searches Smithery + Official MCP registries (~1000 plugins), with background index pre-caching and install/uninstall to ~/.claude.json. Supports both command-based (stdio) and remote URL (streamable-http) servers.

Dashboard Screenshots

Generated .claude/Makefile

register / setup generates a convenience Makefile in each project:

make -C .claude dashboard   # Streamlit UI
make -C .claude scan        # Run review
make -C .claude map         # Update project map
make -C .claude status      # Show status
make -C .claude activity    # View action log
make -C .claude init        # Bootstrap project

Python path is auto-detected via sys.executable — works across venvs, conda, homebrew, etc.

Configuration

Variable	Default	Description
SDKROUTER_API_KEY	—	Required for LLM features. Get at sdkrouter.com
CMDOP_CLAUDE_DIR_PATH	.claude	Path to .claude directory
CLAUDE_CP_SIDECAR_MODEL	deepseek/deepseek-v3.2	LLM model for review/fix/map
CLAUDE_CP_SMITHERY_API_KEY	—	Smithery registry API key (optional)
CMDOP_DEBUG_MODE	false	Debug logging

LLM features (review, fix, map, init) require a SDKROUTER_API_KEY — get one at sdkrouter.com. Init uses Model.balanced(json=True) from SDKRouter (auto-selects best model for structured output). Review, fix, and map use DeepSeek V3.2 (cheap, fast, good for short responses).
