capcom init

capcom init

Create the capcom store (.capcom/) in this git repository

Synopsis

Create the capcom store in the current git working tree: .capcom/ with its issues and knowledge directories and config.yaml. An existing store is left as it is. Without –claude-hooks it prints the Claude Code hooks that run capcom prime at session start and before compaction, for you to add; –claude-hooks merges those SessionStart and PreCompact hooks into .claude/settings.json, and –codex-hooks into .codex/hooks.json. –merge-driver hands issue files to the capcom-log merge driver in .gitattributes and prints the two git config commands that define it. The flags are independent and can be combined.

  capcom init --merge-driver   # ...and merge issue Logs by entry (prints two git config lines)
