About C3P

C3P is claude-code-config-profiles — a tiny CLI that lets you keep multiple named configurations for Claude Code’s .claude/ directory and swap between them atomically.

Why it exists

Section titled “Why it exists”

Claude Code reads project context from .claude/: agent definitions, slash-command definitions, project rules in CLAUDE.md. Editing those files in place is fine for one project with one set of instructions, but real workflows aren’t like that:

  • A solo dev wants a verbose profile with debug agents while exploring, and a quiet profile for shipping.
  • A team wants one canonical, version-controlled profile shared across every machine and CI runner.
  • A pipeline wants deterministic, drift-proof swaps so the agent’s behaviour can’t be silently affected by a stray uncommitted edit.

C3P keeps profiles as source of truth (under .claude-profiles/) and treats .claude/ as a regenerated artifact, with a drift gate between you and any unintended overwrite.

Project status

Section titled “Project status”

C3P is on the 1.x line. The CLI surface is stable; non-breaking improvements land on main and ship as cosign-signed Go binaries via Homebrew, WinGet, GitHub Releases, and go install. See the CHANGELOG for the canonical history and the latest version.

How to contribute

Section titled “How to contribute”

The project lives on GitHub at github.com/htxryan/claude-code-config-profiles. The fastest way to help:

  1. Try C3P in a real project and file an issue if something feels off.
  2. Read CONTRIBUTING.md before sending a PR — it covers the test/lint/conventional-commits workflow.
  3. For larger changes, open a discussion first so we can align on approach.
