Power Claude is not only a VS Code extension. The CLI (power-claude / pc) gives you Health Check, diagnostics, and config from any terminal or CI box — same local-first model as the dashboard.
TL;DR
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
npm i -g power-claude | Install CLI |
pc proof | Claude Health Check on your local history |
pc health | Local diagnostics |
pc config get/set | Read/write settings (confirm first) |
| Dashboard CLI tab | Full command catalogue inside the extension |
Install
npm install -g power-claude
pc --help
Editors that already have the extension do not require the CLI — the CLI is for headless / multi-machine workflows.
First win: proof
pc proof
Scans local Claude Code session data and surfaces recoverable work. Prefer this before multi-seat tours. Nothing leaves the machine unless you explicitly share an anonymized card.
Config safely
- Prefer
pc config set <key> <value>after readingpc config get <key>. - Honour the emergency kill switch:
~/.power-claude/state/emergency-off. - Never put license secrets in shell history on shared hosts.
FAQ
Is the CLI a different product?
No. Same Neural-LLM Power Claude; different surface.
