SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides an in-session, deterministic way to view and update Claude Code configuration, CLAUDE.md memories, and permission allowlists without leaving the chat, reducing context switching and manual repository edits.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Permission Management: List, add, remove, and search allowlist entries and toggle permission modes for skills and hooks.
  • CLAUDE.md & Memory Editing: Read, polish, and persist concise memory entries to CLAUDE.md (global, project, or memory files) with guidance on where to place content.
  • Skill & Hook Administration: List and view installed skills and hook scripts, sync repository files during initial setup, and edit config values.
  • Config Operations: Summarize configuration, get and set specific settings.json values, and confirm changes after edits.
  • Use Case: Save a user's preference as a durable memory, add a collaborator to the allowlist, or update a project-level CLAUDE.md entry directly from a session.
