Knowledge work is, by extension, a coding problem.
Frontier models with full system access — shell, filesystem, browser, MCP. Verbose, thorough planning paired with unrestricted file operations lets micro·cc take on complex multi-step work autonomously. Point it at any project directory and go.
Install
pip install micro-cc
Cross-platform — macOS, Linux, Windows — with terminal keybindings (Shift+Enter, word-jump, etc.) detected and configured automatically on first run, whatever terminal you're in.
Usage
microcc /path/to/your/project
First run, type /login and pick Anthropic, a LiteLLM proxy (Bedrock, Azure, etc.), or Ollama — it writes ~/.micro-cc/.env for you, no manual editing needed.
Controls:
Enter— submit ·Shift+Enter— newline ·Escape— interrupt/login— configure endpoint ·/model— switch model ·/clear— reset conversation ·/keys— store project-scoped secrets ·/exit— quit- Type

Headless (-p mode / cron)
microcc-headless /path/to/project_dir "Fix the JWT expiry bug — tokens aren't refreshing correctly."
The microcc equivalent of claude -p — one prompt (argument or piped via stdin), no manifest to write first. project_dir scopes the conversation exactly like the interactive TUI does, so pointing repeated cron runs at the same dir continues that history; a fresh dir starts stateless. Runs fully autonomously (no approval gate), so it never blocks waiting on stdin — a clarifying question from the model is auto-cancelled rather than hung on.
It prints the outcome the same way batch does — STATUS: DONE|NEEDS_INPUT|FAILED — <summary> parsed into a symbol + the full reply:
✓ DONE — Patched JWT expiry check in auth.py
<full reply body, if any, above the status line>
Useful flags: -f/--file (repeatable, points the prompt at specific files), --output-format json (machine-parseable {status, summary, body, project_dir}), --verbose (streams tool calls/results to stderr — handy in cron logs).
Batch (multi-task / cron)
microcc-batch /path/to/base_dir tasks.json
For running several named tasks in one go, each kept in its own isolated subfolder so context never bleeds between them — reach for this over microcc-headless when you want that separation. Each task gets its own subfolder under base_dir — base_dir/{task.name}/ — which is a real project_dir with its own scoped messages.jsonl. Runs are fully autonomous (no approval gate), so a batch never blocks waiting on stdin. To pick a task back up in the full interactive TUI:
cd base_dir/{task.name} && microcc .
Manifest format (tasks.json):
{
"tasks": [
{
"name": "fix-auth-bug",
"prompt": "Fix the JWT expiry bug — tokens aren't refreshing correctly.",
"files": ["/absolute/path/to/src/auth.py", "/absolute/path/to/src/middleware.py"]
},
{
"name": "add-tests",
"prompt": "Add unit tests for the pagination helper."
}
]
}
files is optional and must use absolute paths — cron jobs have no reliable cwd.
Tasks run sequentially. Each is instructed to end its final reply with STATUS: DONE|NEEDS_INPUT|FAILED — <summary>, which the runner parses into a tree view at the end:
/path/to/base_dir
├── ✓ fix-auth-bug DONE Patched JWT expiry check in auth.py
├── ? add-tests NEEDS_INPUT Which test framework does this repo use?
└── ✓ cleanup-logs DONE Removed dead logging branches
2/3 done · 1 need input · 0 failed
cd into: /path/to/base_dir/add-tests (then `microcc .` to continue)
Only tasks that failed or need input get a cd hint — no need to open every subfolder to check on a large batch.
