omc-setup
OMC Setup
This is the only command you need to learn. After running this, everything else is automatic.
Note: All ~/.claude/... paths in this guide respect CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR when that environment variable is set.
Pre-Setup Check: Already Configured?
CRITICAL: Before doing anything else, check if setup has already been completed. This prevents users from having to re-run the full setup wizard after every update.
# Check if setup was already completed
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.claude/.omc-config.json"
if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
SETUP_COMPLETED=$(jq -r '.setupCompleted // empty' "$CONFIG_FILE" 2>/dev/null)
SETUP_VERSION=$(jq -r '.setupVersion // empty' "$CONFIG_FILE" 2>/dev/null)
if [ -n "$SETUP_COMPLETED" ] && [ "$SETUP_COMPLETED" != "null" ]; then
echo "OMC setup was already completed on: $SETUP_COMPLETED"
[ -n "$SETUP_VERSION" ] && echo "Setup version: $SETUP_VERSION"
ALREADY_CONFIGURED="true"
fi
fi
If Already Configured (and no --force flag)
If ALREADY_CONFIGURED is true AND the user did NOT pass --force, --local, or --global flags:
Use AskUserQuestion to prompt:
Question: "OMC is already configured. What would you like to do?"
Options:
- Update CLAUDE.md only - Download latest CLAUDE.md without re-running full setup
- Run full setup again - Go through the complete setup wizard
- Cancel - Exit without changes
If user chooses "Update CLAUDE.md only":
- Detect if local (.claude/CLAUDE.md) or global (~/.claude/CLAUDE.md) config exists
- If local exists, run the download/merge script from Step 2A
- If only global exists, run the download/merge script from Step 2B
- Skip all other steps
- Report success and exit
If user chooses "Run full setup again":
- Continue with Step 0 (Resume Detection) below
If user chooses "Cancel":
- Exit without any changes
Force Flag Override
If user passes --force flag, skip this check and proceed directly to setup.
Graceful Interrupt Handling
IMPORTANT: This setup process saves progress after each step. If interrupted (Ctrl+C or connection loss), the setup can resume from where it left off.
State File Location
.omc/state/setup-state.json- Tracks completed steps
Resume Detection (Step 0)
Before starting any step, check for existing state:
# Check for existing setup state
STATE_FILE=".omc/state/setup-state.json"
# Cross-platform ISO date to epoch conversion
iso_to_epoch() {
local iso_date="$1"
local epoch=""
# Try GNU date first (Linux)
epoch=$(date -d "$iso_date" +%s 2>/dev/null)
if [ $? -eq 0 ] && [ -n "$epoch" ]; then
echo "$epoch"
return 0
fi
# Try BSD/macOS date
local clean_date=$(echo "$iso_date" | sed 's/[+-][0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]$//' | sed 's/Z$//' | sed 's/T/ /')
epoch=$(date -j -f "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" "$clean_date" +%s 2>/dev/null)
if [ $? -eq 0 ] && [ -n "$epoch" ]; then
echo "$epoch"
return 0
fi
echo "0"
}
if [ -f "$STATE_FILE" ]; then
# Check if state is stale (older than 24 hours)
TIMESTAMP_RAW=$(jq -r '.timestamp // empty' "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null)
if [ -n "$TIMESTAMP_RAW" ]; then
TIMESTAMP_EPOCH=$(iso_to_epoch "$TIMESTAMP_RAW")
NOW_EPOCH=$(date +%s)
STATE_AGE=$((NOW_EPOCH - TIMESTAMP_EPOCH))
else
STATE_AGE=999999 # Force fresh start if no timestamp
fi
if [ "$STATE_AGE" -gt 86400 ]; then
echo "Previous setup state is more than 24 hours old. Starting fresh."
rm -f "$STATE_FILE"
else
LAST_STEP=$(jq -r ".lastCompletedStep // 0" "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null || echo "0")
TIMESTAMP=$(jq -r .timestamp "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")
echo "Found previous setup session (Step $LAST_STEP completed at $TIMESTAMP)"
fi
fi
If state exists, use AskUserQuestion to prompt:
Question: "Found a previous setup session. Would you like to resume or start fresh?"
Options:
- Resume from step $LAST_STEP - Continue where you left off
- Start fresh - Begin from the beginning (clears saved state)
If user chooses "Start fresh":
rm -f ".omc/state/setup-state.json"
echo "Previous state cleared. Starting fresh setup."
Save Progress Helper
After completing each major step, save progress:
# Save setup progress (call after each step)
# Usage: save_setup_progress STEP_NUMBER
save_setup_progress() {
mkdir -p .omc/state
cat > ".omc/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
"lastCompletedStep": $1,
"timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
"configType": "${CONFIG_TYPE:-unknown}"
}
EOF
}
Clear State on Completion
After successful setup completion (Step 7/8), remove the state file:
rm -f ".omc/state/setup-state.json"
echo "Setup completed successfully. State cleared."
Usage Modes
This skill handles three scenarios:
- Initial Setup (no flags): First-time installation wizard
- Local Configuration (
--local): Configure project-specific settings (.claude/CLAUDE.md) - Global Configuration (
--global): Configure global settings (~/.claude/CLAUDE.md)
Mode Detection
Check for flags in the user's invocation:
- If
--localflag present → Skip Pre-Setup Check, go to Local Configuration (Step 2A) - If
--globalflag present → Skip Pre-Setup Check, go to Global Configuration (Step 2B) - If
--forceflag present → Skip Pre-Setup Check, run Initial Setup wizard (Step 1) - If no flags → Run Pre-Setup Check first, then Initial Setup wizard (Step 1) if needed
Step 1: Initial Setup Wizard (Default Behavior)
Note: If resuming and lastCompletedStep >= 1, skip to the appropriate step based on configType.
Use the AskUserQuestion tool to prompt the user:
Question: "Where should I configure oh-my-claudecode?"
Options:
- Local (this project) - Creates
.claude/CLAUDE.mdin current project directory. Best for project-specific configurations. - Global (all projects) - Creates
~/.claude/CLAUDE.mdfor all Claude Code sessions. Best for consistent behavior everywhere.
Step 2A: Local Configuration (--local flag or user chose LOCAL)
CRITICAL: This ALWAYS downloads fresh CLAUDE.md from GitHub to the local project. DO NOT use the Write tool - use bash curl exclusively.

Clean Up Legacy Hooks (if present)
Check if old manual hooks exist and remove them to prevent duplicates:
# Remove legacy bash hook scripts (now handled by plugin system)
rm -f ~/.claude/hooks/keyword-detector.sh
rm -f ~/.claude/hooks/stop-continuation.sh
rm -f ~/.claude/hooks/persistent-mode.sh
rm -f ~/.claude/hooks/session-start.sh
echo "Legacy hooks cleaned"
Check ~/.claude/settings.json for manual hook entries. If the "hooks" key exists with UserPromptSubmit, Stop, or SessionStart entries pointing to bash scripts, inform the user:
Note: Found legacy hooks in settings.json. These should be removed since the plugin now provides hooks automatically. Remove the "hooks" section from ~/.claude/settings.json to prevent duplicate hook execution.
Verify Plugin Installation
grep -q "oh-my-claudecode" ~/.claude/settings.json && echo "Plugin verified" || echo "Plugin NOT found - run: claude /install-plugin oh-my-claudecode"
Confirm Global Configuration Success
After completing global configuration, save progress and report:

OMC Global Configuration Complete
- CLAUDE.md: Updated with latest configuration from GitHub at ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
- Backup: Previous CLAUDE.md backed up to
~/.claude/CLAUDE.md.backup.YYYY-MM-DD(if existed) - Scope: GLOBAL - applies to all Claude Code sessions
- Hooks: Provided by plugin (no manual installation needed)
- Agents: 28+ available (base + tiered variants)

Note: Hooks are now managed by the plugin system automatically. No manual hook installation required.
If --global flag was used, clear state and STOP HERE:
rm -f ".omc/state/setup-state.json"
Do not continue to HUD setup or other steps.
Step 3: Setup HUD Statusline
Note: If resuming and lastCompletedStep >= 3, skip to Step 3.5.
The HUD shows real-time status in Claude Code's status bar. Invoke the hud skill to set up and configure:
Use the Skill tool to invoke: hud with args: setup
This will:
- Install the HUD wrapper script to
~/.claude/hud/omc-hud.mjs - Configure
statusLinein~/.claude/settings.json - Report status and prompt to restart if needed
After HUD setup completes, save progress:
# Save progress - Step 3 complete (HUD setup)
mkdir -p .omc/state
CONFIG_TYPE=$(cat ".omc/state/setup-state.json" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE '"configType":\s*"[^"]+"' | cut -d'"' -f4 || echo "unknown")
cat > ".omc/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
"lastCompletedStep": 3,
"timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
"configType": "$CONFIG_TYPE"
}
EOF
Step 3.5: Clear Stale Plugin Cache
Clear old cached plugin versions to avoid conflicts:
# Clear stale plugin cache versions
CACHE_DIR="$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/omc/oh-my-claudecode"
if [ -d "$CACHE_DIR" ]; then
LATEST=$(ls -1 "$CACHE_DIR" | sort -V | tail -1)
CLEARED=0
for dir in "$CACHE_DIR"/*; do
if [ "$(basename "$dir")" != "$LATEST" ]; then
rm -rf "$dir"
CLEARED=$((CLEARED + 1))
fi
done
[ $CLEARED -gt 0 ] && echo "Cleared $CLEARED stale cache version(s)" || echo "Cache is clean"
else
echo "No cache directory found (normal for new installs)"
fi
Step 3.6: Check for Updates
Notify user if a newer version is available:
# Detect installed version
INSTALLED_VERSION=""
# Try cache directory first
if [ -d "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/omc/oh-my-claudecode" ]; then
INSTALLED_VERSION=$(ls -1 "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/omc/oh-my-claudecode" | sort -V | tail -1)
fi
# Try .omc-version.json second
if [ -z "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ] && [ -f ".omc-version.json" ]; then
INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -oE '"version":\s*"[^"]+' .omc-version.json | cut -d'"' -f4)
fi
# Try CLAUDE.md header third (local first, then global)
if [ -z "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ]; then
if [ -f ".claude/CLAUDE.md" ]; then
INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-claudecode" .claude/CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' | sed 's/^v//')
elif [ -f "$HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md" ]; then
INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-claudecode" "$HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' | sed 's/^v//')
fi
fi
# Check npm for latest version
LATEST_VERSION=$(npm view oh-my-claude-sisyphus version 2>/dev/null)
if [ -n "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ] && [ -n "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
# Simple version comparison (assumes semantic versioning)
if [ "$INSTALLED_VERSION" != "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
echo ""
echo "UPDATE AVAILABLE:"
echo " Installed: v$INSTALLED_VERSION"
echo " Latest: v$LATEST_VERSION"
echo ""
echo "To update, run: claude /install-plugin oh-my-claudecode"
else
echo "You're on the latest version: v$INSTALLED_VERSION"
fi
elif [ -n "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
echo "Latest version available: v$LATEST_VERSION"
fi
Step 3.7: Set Default Execution Mode
Use the AskUserQuestion tool to prompt the user:
Question: "Which parallel execution mode should be your default when you say 'fast' or 'parallel'?"
Options:
- ultrawork (maximum capability) - Uses all agent tiers including Opus for complex tasks. Best for challenging work where quality matters most. (Recommended)
- ** (token efficient)** - Prefers Haiku/Sonnet agents, avoids Opus. Best for pro-plan users who want cost efficiency.
Store the preference in ~/.claude/.omc-config.json:
# Read existing config or create empty object
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.claude/.omc-config.json"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONFIG_FILE")"
if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
EXISTING=$(cat "$CONFIG_FILE")
else
EXISTING='{}'
fi
# Set defaultExecutionMode (replace USER_CHOICE with "ultrawork" or "")
echo "$EXISTING" | jq --arg mode "USER_CHOICE" '. + {defaultExecutionMode: $mode, configuredAt: (now | todate)}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Default execution mode set to: USER_CHOICE"
Note: This preference ONLY affects generic keywords ("fast", "parallel"). Explicit keywords ("ulw", "eco") always override this preference.
Optional: Disable Ecomode Entirely
If the user wants to disable completely (so keywords are ignored), add to the config:
echo "$EXISTING" | jq '. + {: {enabled: false}}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Ecomode disabled completely"
Step 3.8: Install CLI Analytics Tools (Optional)
The OMC CLI provides standalone token analytics commands (omc stats, omc agents, omc tui).
Ask user: "Would you like to install the OMC CLI for standalone analytics? (Recommended for tracking token usage and costs)"
Options:
- Yes (Recommended) - Install CLI tools globally for
omc stats,omc agents, etc. - No - Skip CLI installation, use only plugin skills
CLI Installation Note
The CLI (omc command) is no longer supported via npm/bun global install.
All functionality is available through the plugin system:
- Use
/oh-my-claudecode:omc-helpfor guidance - Use
/oh-my-claudecode:omc-doctorfor diagnostics
Skip this step - the plugin provides all features.
Step 3.8.5: Select Task Management Tool
First, detect available task tools:
# Detect beads (bd)
BD_VERSION=""
if command -v bd &>/dev/null; then
BD_VERSION=$(bd --version 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo "installed")
fi
# Detect beads-rust (br)
BR_VERSION=""
if command -v br &>/dev/null; then
BR_VERSION=$(br --version 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo "installed")
fi
# Report findings
if [ -n "$BD_VERSION" ]; then
echo "Found beads (bd): $BD_VERSION"
fi
if [ -n "$BR_VERSION" ]; then
echo "Found beads-rust (br): $BR_VERSION"
fi
if [ -z "$BD_VERSION" ] && [ -z "$BR_VERSION" ]; then
echo "No external task tools found. Using built-in Tasks."
fi
If neither beads nor beads-rust is detected, skip this step (default to built-in).
If beads or beads-rust is detected, use AskUserQuestion:
Question: "Which task management tool should I use for tracking work?"
Options:
- Built-in Tasks (default) - Use Claude Code's native TaskCreate/TodoWrite. Tasks are session-only.
- Beads (bd) - Git-backed persistent tasks. Survives across sessions. [Only if detected]
- Beads-Rust (br) - Lightweight Rust port of beads. [Only if detected]
(Only show options 2/3 if the corresponding tool is detected)
Store the preference:
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.claude/.omc-config.json"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONFIG_FILE")"
if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
EXISTING=$(cat "$CONFIG_FILE")
else
EXISTING='{}'
fi
# USER_CHOICE is "builtin", "beads", or "beads-rust" based on user selection
echo "$EXISTING" | jq --arg tool "USER_CHOICE" '. + {taskTool: $tool, taskToolConfig: {injectInstructions: true, useMcp: false}}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Task tool set to: USER_CHOICE"
Note: The beads context instructions will be injected automatically on the next session start. No restart is needed for config to take effect.
Step 4: Verify Plugin Installation
grep -q "oh-my-claudecode" ~/.claude/settings.json && echo "Plugin verified" || echo "Plugin NOT found - run: claude /install-plugin oh-my-claudecode"
Step 5: Offer MCP Server Configuration
MCP servers extend Claude Code with additional tools (web search, GitHub, etc.).
Ask user: "Would you like to configure MCP servers for enhanced capabilities? (Context7, Exa search, GitHub, etc.)"
If yes, invoke the mcp-setup skill:
/oh-my-claudecode:mcp-setup
If no, skip to next step.
Step 5.5: Configure Agent Teams (Optional)
Note: If resuming and lastCompletedStep >= 5.5, skip to Step 6.
Agent teams are an experimental Claude Code feature that lets you spawn N coordinated agents working on a shared task list with inter-agent messaging. Teams are disabled by default and require enabling via settings.json.
Reference: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-teams
Use the AskUserQuestion tool to prompt:
Question: "Would you like to enable agent teams? Teams let you spawn coordinated agents (e.g., /team 3:executor 'fix all errors'). This is an experimental Claude Code feature."
Options:
- Yes, enable teams (Recommended) - Enable the experimental feature and configure defaults
- No, skip - Leave teams disabled (can enable later)
If User Chooses YES:
Step 5.5.1: Enable Agent Teams in settings.json
CRITICAL: Agent teams require CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS to be set in ~/.claude/settings.json. This must be done carefully to preserve existing user settings.
First, read the current settings.json:
SETTINGS_FILE="$HOME/.claude/settings.json"
if [ -f "$SETTINGS_FILE" ]; then
echo "Current settings.json found"
cat "$SETTINGS_FILE"
else
echo "No settings.json found - will create one"
fi
Then use the Read tool to read ~/.claude/settings.json (if it exists). Use the Edit tool to merge the teams configuration while preserving ALL existing settings.
If settings.json exists and has an env key, merge the new env var into it:
{
"env": {
"CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
}
}
Use jq to safely merge without overwriting existing settings:
SETTINGS_FILE="$HOME/.claude/settings.json"
if [ -f "$SETTINGS_FILE" ]; then
# Merge env var into existing settings, preserving everything else
TEMP_FILE=$(mktemp)
jq '.env = (.env // {} | . + {"CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"})' "$SETTINGS_FILE" > "$TEMP_FILE" && mv "$TEMP_FILE" "$SETTINGS_FILE"
echo "Added CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS to existing settings.json"
else
# Create new settings.json with just the teams env var
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$SETTINGS_FILE")"
cat > "$SETTINGS_FILE" << 'SETTINGS_EOF'
{
"env": {
"CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
}
}
SETTINGS_EOF
echo "Created settings.json with teams enabled"
fi
IMPORTANT: The Edit tool is preferred for modifying settings.json when possible, since it preserves formatting and comments. The jq approach above is the fallback for when the file needs structural merging.
Step 5.5.2: Configure Teammate Display Mode
Use the AskUserQuestion tool:
Question: "How should teammates be displayed?"
Options:
- Auto (Recommended) - Uses split panes if in tmux, otherwise in-process. Best for most users.
- In-process - All teammates in your main terminal. Use Shift+Up/Down to select. Works everywhere.
- Split panes (tmux) - Each teammate in its own pane. Requires tmux or iTerm2.
If user chooses anything other than "Auto", add teammateMode to settings.json:
SETTINGS_FILE="$HOME/.claude/settings.json"
# TEAMMATE_MODE is "in-process" or "tmux" based on user choice
# Skip this if user chose "Auto" (that's the default)
jq --arg mode "TEAMMATE_MODE" '. + {teammateMode: $mode}' "$SETTINGS_FILE" > "${SETTINGS_FILE}.tmp" && mv "${SETTINGS_FILE}.tmp" "$SETTINGS_FILE"
echo "Teammate display mode set to: TEAMMATE_MODE"
Step 5.5.3: Configure Team Defaults in omc-config
Use the AskUserQuestion tool with multiple questions:
Question 1: "How many agents should teams spawn by default?"
Options:
- 3 agents (Recommended) - Good balance of speed and resource usage
- 5 agents (maximum) - Maximum parallelism for large tasks
- 2 agents - Conservative, for smaller projects
Question 2: "Which agent type should teammates use by default?"
Options:
- executor (Recommended) - General-purpose code implementation agent
- build-fixer - Specialized for build/type error fixing
- designer - Specialized for UI/frontend work
Store the team configuration in ~/.claude/.omc-config.json:
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.claude/.omc-config.json"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONFIG_FILE")"
if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
EXISTING=$(cat "$CONFIG_FILE")
else
EXISTING='{}'
fi
# Replace MAX_AGENTS, AGENT_TYPE with user choices
echo "$EXISTING" | jq \
--argjson maxAgents MAX_AGENTS \
--arg agentType "AGENT_TYPE" \
'. + {team: {maxAgents: $maxAgents, defaultAgentType: $agentType, monitorIntervalMs: 30000, shutdownTimeoutMs: 15000}}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Team configuration saved:"
echo " Max agents: MAX_AGENTS"
echo " Default agent: AGENT_TYPE"
echo " Model: teammates inherit your session model"
Note: Teammates do not have a separate model default. Each teammate is a full Claude Code session that inherits your configured model. Subagents spawned by teammates can use any model tier.
Verify settings.json Integrity
After all modifications, verify settings.json is valid JSON and contains the expected keys:
SETTINGS_FILE="$HOME/.claude/settings.json"
# Verify JSON is valid
if jq empty "$SETTINGS_FILE" 2>/dev/null; then
echo "settings.json: valid JSON"
else
echo "ERROR: settings.json is invalid JSON! Restoring from backup..."
# The backup from Step 2 should still exist
exit 1
fi
# Verify teams env var is present
if jq -e '.env.CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS' "$SETTINGS_FILE" > /dev/null 2>&1; then
echo "Agent teams: ENABLED"
else
echo "WARNING: Agent teams env var not found in settings.json"
fi
# Show final settings.json for user review
echo ""
echo "Final settings.json:"
jq '.' "$SETTINGS_FILE"
If User Chooses NO:
Skip this step. Agent teams will remain disabled. User can enable later by adding to ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
"env": {
"CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
}
}
Or by running /oh-my-claudecode:omc-setup --force and choosing to enable teams.
Save Progress
# Save progress - Step 5.5 complete (Teams configured)
mkdir -p .omc/state
CONFIG_TYPE=$(cat ".omc/state/setup-state.json" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE '"configType":\s*"[^"]+"' | cut -d'"' -f4 || echo "unknown")
cat > ".omc/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
"lastCompletedStep": 5.5,
"timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
"configType": "$CONFIG_TYPE"
}
EOF
Step 6: Detect Upgrade from 2.x
Check if user has existing configuration:
# Check for existing 2.x artifacts
ls ~/.claude/commands/ralph-loop.md 2>/dev/null || ls ~/.claude/commands/ultrawork.md 2>/dev/null
If found, this is an upgrade from 2.x.
Step 7: Show Welcome Message
For New Users:
OMC Setup Complete!
You don't need to learn any commands. I now have intelligent behaviors that activate automatically.
WHAT HAPPENS AUTOMATICALLY:
- Complex tasks -> I parallelize and delegate to specialists
- "plan this" -> I start a planning interview
- "don't stop until done" -> I persist until verified complete
- "stop" or "cancel" -> I intelligently stop current operation
MAGIC KEYWORDS (optional power-user shortcuts):
Just include these words naturally in your request:
| Keyword | Effect | Example |
|---------|--------|---------|
| ralph | Persistence mode | "ralph: fix the auth bug" |
| ralplan | Iterative planning | "ralplan this feature" |
| ulw | Max parallelism | "ulw refactor the API" |
| eco | Token-efficient mode | "eco refactor the API" |
| plan | Planning interview | "plan the new endpoints" |
| team | Coordinated agents | "/team 3:executor fix errors" |
**ralph includes ultrawork:** When you activate ralph mode, it automatically includes ultrawork's parallel execution. No need to combine keywords.
TEAMS:
Spawn coordinated agents with shared task lists and real-time messaging:
- /oh-my-claudecode:team 3:executor "fix all TypeScript errors"
- /oh-my-claudecode:team 5:build-fixer "fix build errors in src/"
Teams use Claude Code native tools (TeamCreate/SendMessage/TaskCreate).
MCP SERVERS:
Run /oh-my-claudecode:mcp-setup to add tools like web search, GitHub, etc.
HUD STATUSLINE:
The status bar now shows OMC state. Restart Claude Code to see it.
CLI ANALYTICS (if installed):
- omc - Full dashboard (stats + agents + cost)
- omc stats - View token usage and costs
- omc agents - See agent breakdown by cost
- omc tui - Launch interactive TUI dashboard
That's it! Just use Claude Code normally.
For Users Upgrading from 2.x:
OMC Setup Complete! (Upgraded from 2.x)
GOOD NEWS: Your existing commands still work!
- /ralph, /ultrawork, /plan, etc. all still function
WHAT'S NEW in 3.0:
You no longer NEED those commands. Everything is automatic now:
- Just say "don't stop until done" instead of /ralph
- Just say "fast" or "parallel" instead of /ultrawork
- Just say "plan this" instead of /plan
- Just say "stop" instead of /cancel
MAGIC KEYWORDS (power-user shortcuts):
| Keyword | Same as old... | Example |
|---------|----------------|---------|
| ralph | /ralph | "ralph: fix the bug" |
| ralplan | /ralplan | "ralplan this feature" |
| ulw | /ultrawork | "ulw refactor API" |
| eco | (new!) | "eco fix all errors" |
| plan | /plan | "plan the endpoints" |
| team | (new!) | "/team 3:executor fix errors" |
TEAMS (NEW!):
Spawn coordinated agents with shared task lists and real-time messaging:
- /oh-my-claudecode:team 3:executor "fix all TypeScript errors"
- Uses Claude Code native tools (TeamCreate/SendMessage/TaskCreate)
HUD STATUSLINE:
The status bar now shows OMC state. Restart Claude Code to see it.
CLI ANALYTICS (if installed):
- omc - Full dashboard (stats + agents + cost)
- omc stats - View token usage and costs
- omc agents - See agent breakdown by cost
- omc tui - Launch interactive TUI dashboard
Your workflow won't break - it just got easier!
Step 8: Ask About Starring Repository
First, check if gh CLI is available and authenticated:
gh auth status &>/dev/null
If gh is available and authenticated:
Use the AskUserQuestion tool to prompt the user:
Question: "If you're enjoying oh-my-claudecode, would you like to support the project by starring it on GitHub?"
Options:
- Yes, star it! - Star the repository
- No thanks - Skip without further prompts
- Maybe later - Skip without further prompts
If user chooses "Yes, star it!":
gh api -X PUT /user/starred/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode 2>/dev/null && echo "Thanks for starring! ⭐" || true
Note: Fail silently if the API call doesn't work - never block setup completion.
If gh is NOT available or not authenticated:
echo ""
echo "If you enjoy oh-my-claudecode, consider starring the repo:"
echo " https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode"
echo ""
Clear Setup State and Mark Completion
After Step 8 completes (regardless of star choice), clear the temporary state and mark setup as completed:
# Setup complete - clear temporary state file
rm -f ".omc/state/setup-state.json"
# Mark setup as completed in persistent config (prevents re-running full setup on updates)
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.claude/.omc-config.json"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONFIG_FILE")"
# Get current OMC version from CLAUDE.md
OMC_VERSION=""
if [ -f ".claude/CLAUDE.md" ]; then
OMC_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-claudecode" .claude/CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "unknown")
elif [ -f "$HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md" ]; then
OMC_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-claudecode" "$HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "unknown")
fi
if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
EXISTING=$(cat "$CONFIG_FILE")
else
EXISTING='{}'
fi
# Add setupCompleted timestamp and version
echo "$EXISTING" | jq --arg ts "$(date -Iseconds)" --arg ver "$OMC_VERSION" \
'. + {setupCompleted: $ts, setupVersion: $ver}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Setup completed successfully!"
echo "Note: Future updates will only refresh CLAUDE.md, not the full setup wizard."
Keeping Up to Date
After installing oh-my-claudecode updates (via npm or plugin update):
Automatic: Just run /oh-my-claudecode:omc-setup - it will detect you've already configured and offer a quick "Update CLAUDE.md only" option that skips the full wizard.
Manual options:
/oh-my-claudecode:omc-setup --localto update project config only/oh-my-claudecode:omc-setup --globalto update global config only/oh-my-claudecode:omc-setup --forceto re-run the full wizard (reconfigure preferences)
This ensures you have the newest features and agent configurations without the token cost of repeating the full setup.
