@designteam/adapter-claude-cli

Design Team adapter that dispatches each task to the local claude CLI. Zero prompt boilerplate for the caller — the adapter stitches agent personality + team memory + user profile + task brief into one claude -p invocation.

See the monorepo root's adapter-plugin.md for the full adapter spec.

Install

pnpm add @designteam/adapter-claude-cli

Requires the claude CLI on your PATH (installation).

Usage

import { registerAdapter } from '@designteam/adapter-utils'
import { createClaudeCliAdapter } from '@designteam/adapter-claude-cli'

registerAdapter(createClaudeCliAdapter({
  claudePath: 'claude',            // default
  extraArgs: ['--model', 'sonnet'],
  timeoutMs: 15 * 60 * 1000,
}))

What the prompt looks like

For a researcher agent named Scout, working on a competitive-analysis task, the prompt claude -p receives looks like:

You are Scout, a researcher on a design team.

<personality fragment — bold/playful/experimental sliders>

<current mood + design modifiers from emotions>

<recent agent memories (top 5 by salience)>

ABOUT THE USER
<user profile: business, industry, voice, style, ...>

TEAM KNOWLEDGE
<team memory top 10 by salience, grouped by category>

## Task

analyze three competing landing pages

Success criteria: three named competitors with differentiators
Why this matters: grounds the positioning work in reality
