Skip to main content
CC Commander works inside any Claude Code session without the standalone CLI. Type /ccc in a Claude Code session and the full interactive menu appears — the same 15 options, the same sub-menus, the same guided flows. This also works in Claude Desktop Cowork and VS Code with the Cursor extension.

​
Opening the main menu

/ccc
This displays the main interactive menu with all 15 options. You navigate with a numbered prompt or by typing the key shown next to each choice. Type “back”, “cancel”, or press Escape at any point to return to the previous menu.

​
Direct invocations

Every main menu section has a direct route. Use these to skip the menu and go straight to what you need.
CommandWhat it does
/cccMain menu (15 options)
/ccc buildBuild wizard — website, API, CLI, or custom
/ccc xrayProject health scan (score 0-100 across 6 dimensions)
/ccc makeoverAuto-apply top X-Ray recommendations
/ccc skillsBrowse and install from 450+ skills
/ccc domainsBrowse 11 CCC domain routers
/ccc nightNight Mode — 8-hour autonomous build setup
/ccc settingsName, level, cost ceiling, theme, Linear
/ccc statusConfigure and manage periodic status update notifications
/ccc spawnMulti-agent spawn manager (quick, team, swarm, expert)
/ccc themeSwitch the visual theme (CLI note — see below)
/ccc infraInfrastructure & Fleet sub-menu
/ccc linearLinear board — view issues, pick tasks
/ccc domainsShow all 11 CCC domains
/ccc daemonShow daemon status and queue
/ccc detectProbe all services and CLIs
/ccc refreshUpdate your CLAUDE.md from the latest template
Theme switching (/ccc theme) controls the visual skin of the ccc terminal UI. It has no visible effect inside a Claude Code session, where rendering is handled by Claude’s own interface. To change the theme, run ccc in a terminal and press t from the main menu.

Slash command reference

CommandDescription
/cccOpens the full interactive main menu
/ccc buildLaunches the build wizard — prompts for project type and a one-sentence description, then dispatches Claude with the right model and skills
/ccc xrayRuns a project health audit scoring 0-100 across Security, Testing, Maintainability, Dependencies, DevOps, and Documentation
/ccc makeoverRuns /ccc xray first, then presents the top-5 recommendations and applies each one automatically with your approval
/ccc skillsOpens the skill browser — browse by category, search by keyword, or get a recommendation based on your current task
/ccc domainsShows all 11 CCC domain routers with sub-skill counts and focus areas

​
Headless dispatch with --dispatch

When you need CC Commander to run a task without an interactive session — for example, from an AI agent or CI script — use the --dispatch flag: 
ccc --dispatch "Add JWT authentication to the login endpoint"
The Intelligence Layer scores the task, detects your stack, selects the right model and budget, and dispatches Claude without any prompts. Add --json to receive structured output: 
ccc --dispatch "Build auth with JWT" --json --model opus --budget 5

# Run a task headlessly and capture JSON output
result=$(ccc --dispatch "Refactor the auth module" --json)

# Check for errors
echo $result | jq '.error // "success"'

​
Override flags

You can override the Intelligence Layer’s auto-selection with explicit flags:
FlagExampleWhat it does
--model--model opusForce a specific model
--max-turns--max-turns 50Cap the number of turns
--budget--budget 5Set a USD budget cap
--cwd--cwd /path/to/projectRun in a different directory
For AI orchestrators, read docs/BIBLE-AGENT.md from the CC Commander repo. It is a 268-line machine-readable reference covering the full CLI API, dispatch patterns, JSON schemas, and integration points — written so any AI agent can manage CCC immediately after reading it.
