# cc10x-router-owned-harness

Routes tasks across agents and writes workflow state to disk in .cc10x/. It maintains context across long Claude Code sessions during memory compaction and enforces test gates.

## What it does

The plugin routes user requests through `cc10x-router`, dispatching tasks across 14 specialist agents and 21 skills. Instead of relying on volatile context memory, it writes evidence and run state directly to disk inside `.cc10x/`. Progress survives context compaction.

Strict gates govern execution. The `integration-verifier` prevents the model from claiming completion while tests stay red. In parallel, `failure-hunter` scans for swallowed errors and empty catch blocks. Test Honesty Gates block false passes by catching bypasses like `as any` or dummy delays.

Without `python3` version 3.9 or newer in `PATH`, the plugin hooks fail to run. You also need to add `.cc10x/` to `.gitignore` so local session state stays out of version control.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install cc10x-router-owned-harness@claude-community
```

## When to use it
- route complex requests through specialized agents
- persist task state and evidence to the `.cc10x/` directory
- stop unfinished tasks when tests stay red
- detect swallowed errors and empty catch blocks during review

## Example prompts
- build a user authentication system
- debug the payment processing error
- review this PR for security issues

## Install

cc10x needs **Python 3.9 or newer** on `PATH` (3.13 is the version the test suite runs on): every hook except the preflight is a `python3` script. A SessionStart preflight tells the agent when `python3` is missing or too old.

**Step 1 — Add the marketplace** (once per machine):

```bash
claude plugin marketplace add romiluz13/cc10x
```

**Step 2 — Install the plugin:**

```bash
claude plugin install cc10x@cc10x
```

Inside a Claude Code session the same two steps are `/plugin marketplace add romiluz13/cc10x` and `/plugin install cc10x@cc10x`.

Then say **"set up cc10x for me"** in Claude Code and restart. Done.

### Update

```bash
claude plugin update cc10x@cc10x --scope user
```

Use the scope you installed at (`user`, `project`, `local` or `managed`). Then run `/reload-plugins` in an open session, or restart Claude Code.

**Auto-update is off by default for third-party marketplaces** such as `romiluz13/cc10x`, so a new release does not arrive on its own. Either update by hand as above, or open `/plugin`, go to the **Marketplaces** tab, select the marketplace and choose **Enable auto-update**.

### Manual install from a clone

```bash
git clone https://github.com/romiluz13/cc10x.git
claude --plugin-dir "$PWD/cc10x/plugins/cc10x"
```

`--plugin-dir` loads the plugin for that one session only. Skills are then namespaced `cc10x:<skill>`, and the router is `cc10x:cc10x-router`.

### Recommended environment variables

| Variable | Why |
| --- | --- |
| `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TODO_TOOLS=1` | Claude Code ships its task tools by default only on some models. cc10x works without them (it falls back to tracking the graph in the workflow artifact) but this restores them on every model. |
| `CLAUDE_CODE_TASK_LIST_ID` (optional) | Shares one task list across sessions. |
| `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` (optional) | Moves Claude Code's configuration directory off `~/.claude`. Wherever this README says `~/.claude`, read `$CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`. |
| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR` (optional) | Moves the plugins root off `~/.claude/plugins`. |

### Keep `.cc10x/` out of git

cc10x writes memory and workflow state under `.cc10x/` in each project. It is session state, not source, so gitignore `.cc10x/` in each project: add the line `.cc10x/` to its `.gitignore`. How it relates to Claude Code's own memory is under [Memory Persistence](#memory-persistence).

## Quick Start Examples

### Build Something

```
"build a user authentication system"

→ Router detects BUILD intent
→ Stops to resolve missing requirements first
→ component-builder drives RED → GREEN → REFACTOR
→ code-reviewer + failure-hunter run in parallel
→ integration-verifier checks wiring, artifacts, and behavior
→ Workflow state and memory are updated
```

### Fix a Bug

```
"debug the payment processing error"

→ Router detects DEBUG intent
→ Loads prior failures and project memory
→ bug-investigator starts from logs and observed behavior
→ code-reviewer checks the fix path
