Claude Code setup

DevPlace ships a complete, version-controlled setup for Claude Code,
Anthropic's command-line coding agent. Everything lives under the .claude/
directory in the repository root, so it is shared with every contributor through
git and applies the moment the repository is opened in Claude Code.

This setup enforces the platform's ten quality dimensions and extends them into
feature work, all expressed in Claude Code's own primitives.

What is in .claude/

Path Primitive Purpose
.claude/agents/*.md Subagents Ten single-dimension reviewers, one per quality dimension. See Subagents.
.claude/commands/*.md Slash commands Lifecycle commands for understanding, building, verifying, testing, and operating. See Commands.
.claude/workflows/*.js Workflows Deterministic multi-agent scripts for auditing and for building features. See Workflows.
.claude/settings.local.json Settings Local permission configuration.

Three layers of orchestration

The setup offers the same capability at three levels of control, from most
interactive to most deterministic.

  1. Subagents are the building blocks. Each enforces exactly one quality
    dimension (security, audit coverage, documentation, and so on) and can be
    invoked on its own or spawned by anything else.
  2. Commands are model-driven slash commands. Claude reads the command and acts
    in the current conversation. They cover the everyday lifecycle (understand, build,
    verify, test, operate) and orchestration (/maintenance). Best for a quick,
    interactive step with a human in the loop.
  3. Workflows are script-driven orchestration. A JavaScript file in
    .claude/workflows/ runs the same agents in a fixed, reproducible order, with
    structured output and adversarial verification of every finding. Best for a
    repeatable audit or a feature build.

Quick reference

  • Run one dimension: mention the subagent, for example
    @agent-security-maintainer review the routers.
  • Orient on an area: /explain <area>, /trace <route>.
  • Check or fix the whole fleet: /maintenance, /maintenance fix,
    /maintenance check changed, /maintenance fix security,audit.
  • Verified audit of all dimensions: /fleet. Review the current diff: /review.
  • Build a feature end to end: /feature add bookmarks to gists.
  • Scaffold one route, a Devii tool, or an async job:
    /endpoint, /devii-tool, /job-service.
  • Lighter build recipes: /docs-page, /audit-event, /service.
  • Verify and run: /serve, /screenshot <path>, /api-test, /validate, /test.
