OrchestKit Configuration

Interactive setup for customizing your OrchestKit installation.

Quick Start

/ork:configure
/ork:configure mcp memory

Argument Resolution

PRESET = "$ARGUMENTS[0]"   # Optional preset name or subcommand, e.g., "mcp"
TARGET = "$ARGUMENTS[1]"   # Optional target, e.g., "memory"
# If no arguments, run interactive wizard.
# $ARGUMENTS is the full string (CC 2.1.59 indexed access)

Step 1: Choose Preset

Step 4: Configure Hooks

Safety Hooks (Always On):

• git-branch-protection
• file-guard
• redact-secrets

Toggleable Hooks:

• Productivity (auto-approve, logging)
• Quality Gates (coverage, patterns)
• Team Coordination (locks, conflicts)
• Notifications (desktop, sound)

CC 2.1.49 Managed Settings: OrchestKit ships plugin settings.json with default hook permissions. These are *managed defaults* — users can override them in project or user settings. Enterprise admins can lock managed settings via managed profiles.

Step 5: Configure MCPs (Optional)

All 5 MCPs ship enabled by default. Tavily requires an API key; agentation requires a local package install.

Why all enabled? OrchestKit ships 30+ Sonnet/Haiku subagents. While Opus 4.6 has native extended thinking, Sonnet and Haiku do not — they benefit from sequential-thinking. Tavily and agentation are used by specific agents (see mcpServers in agent frontmatter). CC's MCPSearch auto-defers schemas when overhead exceeds 10% of context, so token cost is managed automatically.

Background agents: MCP tools are NOT available in background subagents (hard CC platform limitation). Agents that need MCP tools must run in the foreground.

Already have these MCPs installed globally? If Tavily or memory are already in your ~/.claude/mcp.json, skip enabling them here to avoid duplicate entries. OrchestKit agents will use whichever instance Claude Code resolves first.

Opt out of claude.ai MCP servers (CC 2.1.63+): Claude Code may load MCP servers from claude.ai by default. To disable this and only use locally-configured MCPs:

export ENABLE_CLAUDEAI_MCP_SERVERS=false

Add to your shell profile (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc) to persist across sessions. This only affects MCP servers sourced from claude.ai — locally-configured MCPs in .mcp.json and ~/.claude/mcp.json are unaffected.

Steps 6-9: CC Version-Specific Settings

Load details: Read("${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/cc-version-settings.md") for full configuration options.

Covers CC 2.1.7 (MCP deferral threshold, effective context window), CC 2.1.20 (task deletion, PR enrichment, agent permissions, monorepo detection, team distribution), CC 2.1.23 (spinner verbs customization), and CC 2.1.79 (turn duration display).

Step 10: Webhook & Telemetry Configuration

Configure dual-channel telemetry for streaming session data to HQ or your own API.

AskUserQuestion(questions=[{
  "question": "Set up session telemetry?",
  "header": "Telemetry",
  "options": [
    {"label": "Full streaming (Recommended)", "description": "All 18 events stream via native HTTP + enriched summaries"},
    {"label": "Summary only", "description": "SessionEnd and worktree events only (command hooks)"},
    {"label": "Skip", "description": "No telemetry — hooks run locally only"}
  ],
  "multiSelect": false
}])

If "Full streaming"

1. Ask for webhook URL:

AskUserQuestion(questions=[{
  "question": "What is your webhook endpoint URL?",
  "header": "Webhook URL",
  "options": [
    {"label": "Custom URL", "description": "Enter your API endpoint (e.g., https://api.example.com/hooks)"}
  ],
  "multiSelect": false
}])

1. Run the HTTP hook generator:

npm run generate:http-hooks -- <webhook-url> --write

1. Save webhookUrl to orchestration config for command hooks:

# File: .claude/orchestration/config.json
saveConfig({ webhookUrl: "<webhook-url>" })

1. Remind the user to set the auth token:

Set ORCHESTKIT_HOOK_TOKEN in your environment (never in config files):
  export ORCHESTKIT_HOOK_TOKEN=your-secret

Two channels now active:
  Channel 1 (HTTP):    All 18 events → /cc-event (Bearer auth, zero overhead)
  Channel 2 (Command): SessionEnd → /ingest (HMAC auth, enriched data)

If "Summary only"

Save webhookUrl to config and remind about env var (same as above, skip generator step).

Load Read("${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/http-hooks.md") for architecture details.

Step 11: Optional Integrations

Load details: Read("${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/integrations.md") for full integration setup steps.

Covers Agentation UI annotation tool (npm install, MCP config, component scaffold, CSP updates). All steps are idempotent.

Step 12: Preview & Save

Tip (CC 2.1.69+): After saving configuration changes, run /reload-plugins to activate them without restarting your session.

Save to: ~/.claude/plugins/orchestkit/config.json

{
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "preset": "complete",
  "skills": { "ai_ml": true, "backend": true, ... },
  "agents": { "product": true, "technical": true },
  "hooks": { "safety": true, "productivity": true, ... },
  "mcps": { "context7": false, ... }
}

VSCode: Remote Control (CC 2.1.79+)

VSCode users can run /remote-control to bridge their terminal session to claude.ai/code. This lets you continue the same session from a browser or phone — useful for monitoring long-running configurations or agent tasks away from your desk.
