| 26 | ## What is 10x-Code? |
| 27 | |
| 28 | **10x-Code** is a production-grade context engineering middleware built by the **10x Team** that sits between your queries and Claude Code. It ensures every interaction has precisely the right context — no wasted tokens exploring irrelevant files, no losing track of what changed. |
| 29 | |
| 30 | **Before 10x-Code:** Claude Code explores your codebase from scratch on every query, reading files it doesn't need, losing context when the window fills up. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | **With 10x-Code:** Your codebase is indexed once, only relevant files are read per query, and everything is tracked in local MD files that persist across sessions. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | ### Key Highlights |
| 35 | |
| 36 | - **23 slash commands** across 6 categories — context, workflow, testing, research, git, operations |
| 37 | - **6 specialist agents** — context builder, test runner, code auditor, git tracker, knowledge guide, team lead |
| 38 | - **Dependency-aware indexing** — files ranked by import centrality, not just name matching |
| 39 | - **Zero-token context injection** — Glob + Grep lookups cost no API tokens |
| 40 | - **Session persistence** — commit-style task logging in local MD files |
| 41 | - **Hook system** — automated lifecycle hooks for session management and path protection |
| 42 | - **MCP server integration** — remote tools endpoint at `10x.in/api/mcp` |
| 43 | - **Cross-model optimized** — Haiku for scanning, Sonnet for coding, Opus for reasoning |

| 45 | ## Installation |
| 46 | |
| 47 | ### npx (recommended) |
| 48 | |
| 49 | ```bash |
| 50 | npx 10x-code init |
| 51 | ``` |
| 52 | |
| 53 | ### bun |
| 54 | |
| 55 | ```bash |
| 56 | bunx 10x-code init |
| 57 | ``` |
| 58 | |
| 59 | ### Global install |
| 60 | |
| 61 | ```bash |
| 62 | npm install -g 10x-code |
| 63 | ccs init |
| 64 | ``` |
| 65 | |
| 66 | ### Manual |
| 67 | |
| 68 | ```bash |
| 69 | git clone https://github.com/10x-Anit/10x-Code-Context.git |
| 70 | # Copy each skill as its own directory (Claude Code requires one level deep) |
| 71 | for d in 10x-Code-Context/skills/*/; do |
| 72 | name=$(basename "$d") |
| 73 | cp -r "$d" ".claude/skills/ccs-$name/" |
| 74 | done |
| 75 | # Copy shared resources |
| 76 | cp -r 10x-Code-Context/{agents,templates,references} .claude/skills/_ccs/ |
| 77 | # Copy MCP config |
| 78 | cp 10x-Code-Context/.mcp.json .mcp.json |
| 79 | ``` |
| 80 | |
| 81 | > **Important:** Skills must be at `.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` (one level deep). Do NOT nest deeper — Claude Code won't discover them. |
