## What it is
cc-sessions is an opinionated installer/extension that sets up a structured, session-based development workflow for Claude Code, including DAIC (Discussion, Alignment, Implementation, Check) enforcement hooks, todo validation, and natural-language trigger protocols. It is distributed as both a Python (pipx) and Node.js (npx) package and installed per-repository.

## Use cases
- enforce a discussion-before-implementation workflow with Claude Code
- prevent scope creep by locking approved todo lists
- automate Claude Code sessions with natural language trigger phrases
- manage multi-phase projects with directory tasks and feature branches
- onboard a team to a consistent AI pair-programming workflow
- add git-aware statusline tracking to Claude Code

## When to choose
- you use Claude Code daily and want an opinionated, enforced workflow rather than ad-hoc prompting
- you want todo-list validation and DAIC guardrails to keep AI coding sessions on track
- you want a quick npx/pipx installer that configures hooks and commands in an existing repo

## When to avoid
- you don't use Claude Code or prefer a different AI coding assistant
- you want a lightweight, unopinionated setup without hooks or workflow enforcement
- you dislike opinionated tooling that dictates your development process and trigger phrases
