⚡ Quick Installation

Choose Your Installation Method

Method	Command	Best For
🐍 pipx	pipx install SuperClaude && pipx upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install	✅ Recommended - Linux/macOS
📦 pip	pip install SuperClaude && pip upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install	Traditional Python environments
🌐 npm	npm install -g @bifrost_inc/superclaude && superclaude install	Cross-platform, Node.js users

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Upgrading from SuperClaude V3

If you have SuperClaude V3 installed, you SHOULD uninstall it before installing V4:

# Uninstall V3 first
Remove all related files and directories :
*.md *.json and commands/

# Then install V4
pipx install SuperClaude && pipx upgrade SuperClaude && SuperClaude install

✅ What gets preserved during upgrade:

• ✓ Your custom slash commands (outside commands/sc/)
• ✓ Your custom content in CLAUDE.md
• ✓ Claude Code's .claude.json, .credentials.json, settings.json and settings.local.json
• ✓ Any custom agents and files you've added

⚠️ Note: Other SuperClaude-related .json files from V3 may cause conflicts and should be removed.

💡 Troubleshooting PEP 668 Errors

# Option 1: Use pipx (Recommended)
pipx install SuperClaude

# Option 2: User installation
pip install --user SuperClaude

# Option 3: Force installation (use with caution)
pip install --break-system-packages SuperClaude

🔬 Deep Research Capabilities

Autonomous Web Research Aligned with DR Agent Architecture

SuperClaude v4.2 introduces comprehensive Deep Research capabilities, enabling autonomous, adaptive, and intelligent web research.

🎯 Adaptive Planning Three intelligent strategies: Planning-Only: Direct execution for clear queries Intent-Planning: Clarification for ambiguous requests Unified: Collaborative plan refinement (default)	🔄 Multi-Hop Reasoning Up to 5 iterative searches: Entity expansion (Paper → Authors → Works) Concept deepening (Topic → Details → Examples) Temporal progression (Current → Historical) Causal chains (Effect → Cause → Prevention)
📊 Quality Scoring Confidence-based validation: Source credibility assessment (0.0-1.0) Coverage completeness tracking Synthesis coherence evaluation Minimum threshold: 0.6, Target: 0.8	🧠 Case-Based Learning Cross-session intelligence: Pattern recognition and reuse Strategy optimization over time Successful query formulations saved Performance improvement tracking

Research Command Usage

# Basic research with automatic depth
/sc:research "latest AI developments 2024"

# Controlled research depth
/sc:research "quantum computing breakthroughs" --depth exhaustive

# Specific strategy selection
/sc:research "market analysis" --strategy planning-only

# Domain-filtered research
/sc:research "React patterns" --domains "reactjs.org,github.com"

Research Depth Levels

Depth	Sources	Hops	Time	Best For
Quick	5-10	1	~2min	Quick facts, simple queries
Standard	10-20	3	~5min	General research (default)
Deep	20-40	4	~8min	Comprehensive analysis
Exhaustive	40+	5	~10min	Academic-level research

Integrated Tool Orchestration

The Deep Research system intelligently coordinates multiple tools:

• Tavily MCP: Primary web search and discovery
• Playwright MCP: Complex content extraction
• Sequential MCP: Multi-step reasoning and synthesis
• Serena MCP: Memory and learning persistence
• Context7 MCP: Technical documentation lookup
