cc-connect

How to participate in a cc-connect Room. Use whenever the user asks you to "tell the room", "send to chat", "ping <person>", "share <file> with the room", "summarise the chat", or anything else that involves the cc-connect chat substrate. Always call MCP tools — never paste raw text into the answer hoping the user will copy it. For creating / joining / leaving Rooms, see the `cc-connect-room` skill instead.

How to create, join, list, and leave cc-connect Rooms via MCP tools. Use when the user says "start a cc-connect room", "join cc-connect room <ticket>", "leave the room", "what room am I in", or "set my nickname". For chatting *inside* a Room, see the `cc-connect-chat` skill.

Cut a release of cc-connect — Rust binaries (`v*` tag), VSCode extension (`vscode-extension-v*` tag), or both. Use when the user says "publish", "release", "cut a release", "tag a release", "ship", or anything that implies pushing a versioned artifact. Handles version bumps, tag namespaces, CI watch, and the cross-artifact dependencies users keep forgetting.

Push local commits to origin/main with the right pre-flight checks — local compile, conventional-commits guard, branch protection awareness. Use when the user says "push", "push this", "push to main", or any short instruction to land local work on the remote. NOT for cutting releases — those go through the `publish` skill, not here.

Build / F5 / debug the cc-connect VSCode extension. Use when you're iterating on src/ or webview/ in this directory and need to know which command to run, how to inspect runtime state, or how to debug specific subsystems (webview rendering, Claude SDK driver, daemon spawn, log tail, IPC over chat.sock).

Stand up a self-hosted iroh-relay on a user-supplied Linux server so cc-connect can route gossip + iroh-blobs through their own infrastructure instead of n0's public relays. Walks through SSH access, TLS cert issuance via certbot, nginx reverse-proxy, iroh-relay binary install, and a systemd unit. Use when the user asks to "self-host the relay", "set up my own relay", "use my own server for cc-connect", or anything in that intent.

Walk the user through installing cc-connect — check toolchain, run the build, wire the UserPromptSubmit hook into ~/.claude/settings.json, and verify with `cc-connect doctor`. Use when the user asks to "install cc-connect", "set up cc-connect", or anything in that intent.
