Meet superclawd

superclawd is the command at the heart of the product — and the headphone-wearing crab in our logo. Run it, and Claude Code starts every session already wired into your workspace's standards.

The crab wears headphones because it's always listening. When you launch Claude Code with superclawd, it fetches the right instructions from your workspace and delivers them on-demand — so every session follows your standards with no wasted tokens and no repeated context.

One command. Your whole team's standards, every session.

Works with Claude Code

SuperClawd is built for Claude Code, Anthropic's official CLI for AI-assisted development.

The superclawd launcher starts Claude Code with your workspace's skills, agents, and rules already loaded — so every session follows your standards out of the box, with no manual configuration.
