Ccc Settings

$ccc-settings — Configuration hub

Placeholders like ~~project tracker refer to connected tools. See CONNECTORS.md.

Configuration hub for CC Commander. Reads from and writes to ~/.claude/commander/config.json. Full menu sourced from references/settings.json.

Quick Mode (default)

Load current config and show top 4 most-changed settings:

cat ~/.claude/commander/config.json 2>/dev/null || echo '{}'

Display current values and offer via AskUserQuestion (max 4 options — "Back to main menu" is a plain-text line below the picker, not a 5th chip):

• "Change my name" (currently: {name})
• "Change theme" (currently: {theme})
• "Set cost ceiling" (currently: ${costCeiling})
• "More settings..."

Below the picker: Or say "back" to return to /ccc.

Power Mode

Full settings menu from references/settings.json. Activate by passing --power or all as argument, or when user selects "More settings...".

Page the 8 settings below into two 4-option AskUserQuestion pickers (max 4 per AUQ) rather than one 8-item list — page 1: name, level, cost ceiling, theme; page 2: animations, Linear setup, launch mode, reset. A "More…" chip on page 1 cascades to page 2, same pattern as $ccc-more.

Available Settings

All options from references/settings.json. Entries marked (CLI-only) configure the ccc terminal binary and have no effect in Claude Code Desktop / Cowork Desktop — surface them anyway (users may run both), but note the scope.

a) Display name — How CC Commander addresses you

• Ask: "What name should I use?" → write to config.json

b) Experience level — beginner / intermediate / expert

• Affects verbosity, auto-confirm thresholds, and suggested skill complexity
• Ask via AskUserQuestion with 3 options

c) Cost ceiling — Max budget per dispatch (default: $10)

• Ask: "Max budget per session?" → validate is a number → write to config.json
• Note: $10 hard ceiling in night-mode is separate

d) Theme (CLI-only) — Visual theme for ccc CLI

• Options: Claude Anthropic (default) / OLED Black / Matrix / Surprise Me
• Use Bash to apply if ccc --theme is available; otherwise note takes effect on next ccc launch

e) Animations (CLI-only) — Toggle terminal animations

• Ask: Enable / Disable
• Sets CC_NO_ANIMATION=1 in shell profile if disabled

l) Linear setup — Choose team + project, check connection

• Check for LINEAR_CC_CLIENT_ID and LINEAR_CC_CLIENT_SECRET in environment
• If not set: show instructions to set the following in your shell config (.bashrc, .zshrc) or via your preferred secrets manager: export LINEAR_CC_CLIENT_ID=<your_client_id> and export LINEAR_CC_CLIENT_SECRET=<your_client_secret>
• If set: test connection, show linked team and project, offer to change

m) Launch mode (CLI-only) — Simple or Advanced (split tmux)

• Simple: standard single-pane launch
• Advanced: tabbed tmux split mode (ccc --split)

r) Reset all state — Start fresh (keeps skills, clears sessions/knowledge)

• Confirm: "This will delete all sessions and knowledge base entries. Skills are preserved. Continue?"
• If confirmed: rm -rf ~/.claude/commander/sessions/ ~/.claude/commander/knowledge/

Config File Format

~/.claude/commander/config.json:

{
  "name": "Kevin",
  "level": "expert",
  "costCeiling": 10,
  "theme": "claude-anthropic",
  "animations": true,
  "launchMode": "simple",
  "linear": {
    "teamId": "CC",
    "projectId": "commander"
  }
}

Use Write to persist all changes. Never silently overwrite — show the proposed change and confirm.

If Connectors Available

If ~~project tracker is connected:

• The Linear setup option shows current connection status and allows switching teams/projects
• On successful Linear setup, offer to import open issues immediately

Tips

1. Pass a setting name directly as argument (e.g., settings theme) to jump to that setting.
2. The linear argument runs the Linear setup flow without opening the full settings menu.
3. Config is never auto-reset — the reset option requires explicit confirmation.
