First-run Commander onboarding: detects the setup, offers new project, import, tour or skip, writes a start plan. Use just after install.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# /ccc-start — oriented in ninety seconds

**CC Commander** · /ccc-start · a live setup summary, one picker, and a start plan file you can open.

The whole flow is at most six turns: banner, context and picker; the user's pick; up to three follow-up pickers; the plan file; the hand-off. The plan file is the proof that onboarding landed. The user's selected model and permission mode are preserved.

On Codex, AskUserQuestion becomes a plain-text question with the same options, skills are invoked as `$ccc-<name>`, and ExitPlanMode is skipped.

## When to use / when not to

- Use on first install, when `/ccc` routes here because onboarding is not complete, or when the user asks how to start.
- Use `/ccc` for the main hub once onboarding is done, `/ccc-onboard` to onboard a contributor to a repository, and `/ccc-adopt` to merge Commander conventions into an existing project's CLAUDE.md.

## What happens

### 1. Arguments

- `skip` → run step 8 (mark complete), then invoke the `ccc` skill. No picker.
- `new` / `existing` / `tour` → run steps 2 and 3, skip the step 4 picker, and go to the matching branch in step 5.
- No argument → steps 2 to 4.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add kevinzai/commander/ccc-start@sha256:1e05b830c7bc56c2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.55437a6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
