ccline — zsh prompt integration that brings the claude CLI to your everyday shell

[jianshuo]

Hey Claude Flow community!

I built ccline — a lightweight zsh integration for the Claude CLI that complements tools like Claude Flow.

The idea: When you are orchestrating complex agent workflows with Claude Flow, you sometimes have quick shell questions at the prompt. ccline handles those instantly without breaking your flow.

It hijacks command_not_found_handler in zsh:

• Type a one-word command → normal "not found" behavior
• Type two+ words in natural language → Claude answers, renders as Markdown, suggests commands you can run with one keypress in your live shell

$ how do I monitor CPU usage in real time

    htop
    top -d 1  

Commands found — ↑/↓ to choose, Enter to run:
 ❯ htop
   top -d 1

No extra dependencies needed if you already have the claude CLI.
