|
|
|
|
### Test in Claude Code

|
## Quality Hooks (Optional)
|
|
|
|
During installation, you'll be asked if you want to install quality hooks.
|
|
|
|
**What are Quality Hooks?**
|
|
- Pre-commit validation that checks CLAUDE.md quality before commits
|
|
- Ensures best practices compliance
|
|
- Only available for project-level installations
|
|
|
|
**To Install Hooks:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# During installer
|
|
# When prompted: "Would you like to install quality hooks?"
|
|
# Type: y
|
|
|
|
# Or manually:
|
|
mkdir -p .claude/hooks
|
|
cp hooks/pre-commit.sh .claude/hooks/
|
|
chmod +x .claude/hooks/pre-commit.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**To Use Hooks:**
|
|
|
|
Configure git to use the hook:
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Add to .git/config or use git config
|
|
git config core.hooksPath .claude/hooks
|
|
```
|

## Troubleshooting Installation
|
|
|
|
### Issue: "Installation files not found"
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** Running installer from wrong directory
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ClaudeForge # Navigate to repository root
|
|
./install.sh # Run from correct directory
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Issue: "Permission denied"
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** Installer doesn't have execute permission
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
chmod +x install.sh # macOS/Linux
|
|
# or run with bash explicitly
|
|
bash install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Issue: "~/.claude directory not found"
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** Claude Code not installed or hasn't been run yet
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
1. Ensure Claude Code is installed
|
|
2. Run Claude Code at least once to create directory structure
|
|
3. Or let installer create directories (it will prompt)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Issue: Command not recognized after installation
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** Claude Code hasn't reloaded components
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
1. Fully quit Claude Code (not just close window)
|
|
2. Restart Claude Code
|
|
3. Wait a few seconds for components to load
|
|
4. Try command again: `/enhance-claude-md`
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Issue: "Skill not found" error
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** Skill directory name mismatch
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Verify skill directory name is exactly:
|
|
ls ~/.claude/skills/
|
|
# Should show: claudeforge-skill
|
|
|
|
# If different, rename:
|
|
mv ~/.claude/skills/old-name ~/.claude/skills/claudeforge-skill
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Issue: Windows installer fails with execution policy error
|
|
|
|
**Cause:** PowerShell execution policy restricts scripts
|
|
|
|
**Solution:**
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Run PowerShell as Administrator
|
|
# Set execution policy temporarily:
|
|
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
|
|
|
|
# Then run installer:
|
|
.\install.ps1
|
|
```
