SuperClaude Framework
WorkflowMeta-framework adding 30 /sc: slash commands, 20 agents, and 7 behavioral modes to Claude Code via a pipx installer.
Install
$ pipx install superclaude && superclaude install
Update
$ pipx upgrade superclaude && superclaude install
Installed via pipx from PyPI. Re-run `superclaude install` after upgrading to refresh the /sc: commands; `superclaude doctor` verifies the setup. (v5.0 /plugin marketplace install is planned but not yet available.)
When to use it
- You want a ready-made set of lifecycle slash commands (/sc:brainstorm, /sc:implement, /sc:test, /sc:git, /sc:pm) instead of crafting prompts each time.
- You need autonomous, multi-hop deep web research from inside Claude Code with confidence scoring and source validation.
- You want 20 domain agents (security engineer, frontend architect, PM) and 7 behavioral modes that auto-coordinate based on context.
- You want token-efficiency and orchestration modes plus optional MCP servers (Serena, Sequential, Tavily) wired in via one CLI.
Commands & flags
- superclaude install
- Install all 30 /sc: slash commands into Claude Code (run after pipx install).
- superclaude mcp --servers tavily --servers context7
- Install specific MCP servers (Tavily, Context7, etc.) for enhanced capabilities.
- /sc:research "latest AI developments 2024"
- Autonomous multi-hop deep web research (Tavily MCP), depth quick to exhaustive.
- /sc:brainstorm
- Structured brainstorming mode that asks clarifying questions before building.
- /sc:implement
- Guided code implementation routed to the relevant specialized agent.
- superclaude doctor
- Diagnose the installation and verify commands/MCP servers are wired up.
How to use it
SuperClaude is a Python-packaged installer, not a marketplace plugin (the /plugin marketplace path is planned for v5.0 but not yet shipped).
Install via pipx, then register the commands:
pipx install superclaude
superclaude install # installs all 30 /sc: slash commands
superclaude mcp --list # optional: list MCP servers
superclaude mcp # optional: interactive MCP install
superclaude doctor # verify
Restart Claude Code, then use the commands:
/sc # list all 30 commands
/sc:brainstorm
/sc:research "quantum computing breakthroughs"
/sc:implement
An npm wrapper (@bifrost_inc/superclaude) and a direct git clone + ./install.sh are also documented.
Why it earns its place
One of the most popular community frameworks for Claude Code (PyPI package with heavy download counts, mentioned in Awesome Claude Code, with sibling SuperGemini/SuperQwen projects). It bundles 30 lifecycle slash commands, 20 specialized agents, 7 behavioral modes, and 8 optional MCP integrations behind a single CLI — turning Claude Code into a structured dev platform without hand-writing prompts. Its Deep Research mode (up to 5-hop search, 0.0-1.0 quality scoring, case-based cross-session learning) is a standout unique capability.
