cf install

Install the Coding Friend plugin into Claude Code from the terminal.

Overview

cf install installs the Coding Friend plugin into Claude Code entirely from the terminal — no need to open Claude Code first.

The command is idempotent: you can run it as many times as you want without issues.

Usage

cf install

What It Does

  1. Checks prerequisites — verifies that the claude CLI is available
  2. Registers marketplace — adds the coding-friend-marketplace if not already registered
  3. Installs plugin — installs coding-friend@coding-friend-marketplace if not already installed
  4. Version check — if the plugin is already installed, compares with the latest version and suggests cf update if an update is available

Under the Hood

cf install runs these Claude CLI commands for you:

claude plugin marketplace add dinhanhthi/coding-friend
claude plugin install coding-friend@coding-friend-marketplace

Next Steps

After installing, run:

  • cf init — initialize your workspace with documentation folders and configuration
  • cf statusline — setup the Claude Code statusline with project info
