An AI framework for Claude Code and Claude Desktop. Paste one prompt to set it up.

GitHub repo

Get MasterCortex Lite now.

Two steps. Install the CLI, then paste the setup prompt into any Claude session.

1Install Claude Code CLI
$npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

Already have it? Skip to step 2.

2Paste this into Claude Code or Claude Desktop
Setup prompt — copy and paste
Set up MasterCortex on this machine.

0. Run: claude --version. If the CLI is missing or not on PATH, stop and give me the one command to install it (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code) and tell me to restart my terminal or desktop app, then paste this prompt again.
1. Ask me four things, one message: my name, my personal GitHub handle, a client GitHub org if I have one, and a Vercel team slug if I have one.
2. Run: git clone https://github.com/aneechas/mastercortex.git ~/mastercortex
3. Run: MC_NAME="<name>" MC_HANDLE="<handle>" MC_CLIENT_ORG="<org or blank>" MC_VERCEL_TEAM="<team or blank>" bash ~/mastercortex/install.sh --yes
4. Run: bash ~/.claude/framework/setup.sh --check and show me the report.
5. For every tool marked ✗ that I will need, give me the one install command. For every account marked "not connected", give me the login command to run in my own terminal; do not run logins yourself.
6. Read ~/.claude/framework/PRINCIPLES.md and RULES.md, then tell me in five bullet points how you will work from now on.
7. Ask me what I want to build first: a website, an app, a SaaS product, or a video.

It clones the repo, installs everything, checks your tools. No passwords pass through Claude.

That's it. After the prompt runs, type what you want to build — a website, an app, a SaaS, a video — and the framework handles the rest.
