How do hooks improve Claude's performance?

Hooks automatically trigger Codemap commands during events like session starts or file edits, feeding Claude real-time data about which files import the code it's currently changing.

Which operating systems are supported for installation?

The setup-codemap-cli skill provides automated installation paths for macOS and Linux via Homebrew, and Windows via Scoop.

Codemap CLI is a tool designed for intelligent codebase visualization, helping both developers and AI agents understand project structures, file dependencies, and changes through trees and skyline views.

Can I keep my Codemap settings private from my team?

Yes, the skill offers a 'Project level (personal preferences)' option that stores configurations in .local files, which are automatically added to your .gitignore.
