sjat abb5c7a12f Make the Claude Code toolchain reproducible (TODO 10.7)
Reviewed the Claude Code config against boma's capabilities and committed a
reproducible, leaner toolchain:

- .claude/settings.json now declares extraKnownMarketplaces + enabledPlugins so a
  fresh clone prompts to install the active set: superpowers, context7, terraform
  (we use TF, ADR-006), claude-md-management (doc/ADR-heavy). Drops code-simplifier.
- Adds a conservative, read-only/verify permissions allowlist (git status/diff/log,
  make lint/test/check, pytest, rbw unlocked, ls/cat/rg/find) — mutations and
  outward/destructive commands stay gated, consistent with ADR-002.
- docs/runbooks/claude-code-setup.md: per-machine bootstrap, the deferred
  enable-when plugins (security-guidance/semgrep, playwright, hookify, skill-creator),
  rbw/venv prerequisites, and a note to keep the dangerous-mode prompt on.

Closes TODO 10.7. Plugin install remains a per-machine /plugin action (no native
auto-install).

# Runbook — Claude Code setup (per machine)
The repo carries the project's Claude Code config that *travels with git*
`.claude/commands/`, `.claude/hooks/`, and `.claude/settings.json` (hooks,
permissions, and the **declared** plugin set). But **plugins and MCP servers are
local per machine** — they are not synced by your Claude account and not stored in
git (see ADR-014, "Reproducibility of the toolchain"). So a fresh clone needs a
one-time setup. This runbook is that setup.
## 1. Plugins (the active set)
The repo's `.claude/settings.json` declares `extraKnownMarketplaces` +
`enabledPlugins`, so on a fresh clone Claude Code should **prompt** you to trust the
marketplace and install the set. If it doesn't, install them explicitly:
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official
/plugin install superpowers@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install context7@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install terraform@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install claude-md-management@claude-plugins-official
```
| Plugin | Why it's in the set |
|---|---|
| `superpowers` | Brainstorm → ADR, writing-plans, subagent-driven development, TDD — the project methodology |
| `context7` | Up-to-date, version-matched library docs (ADR-014) |
| `terraform` | boma provisions with Terraform (ADR-006) |
| `claude-md-management` | The project is doc/ADR-governance heavy |
**Intentionally not installed:** `code-simplifier` (little code to simplify in a
YAML/docs repo) — dropped as a kaizen "bias-to-remove."
## 2. Plugins to enable *when* the work starts (deferred)
Don't install these until their trigger lands — then add them here and to
`enabledPlugins`:
| Plugin | Enable when |
|---|---|
| `security-guidance`, `semgrep` | Building `/security-review` (TODO 8.5) — semgrep does IaC scanning |
| `playwright` | Web services exist to test headlessly (TODO 2.2) |
| `hookify` | Authoring the next guard hook |
| `skill-creator` | Building the next skill (`/security-review`, `/retro`) |
## 3. Other local prerequisites
- **`rbw` (Vaultwarden client)** — install and `rbw unlock` once per session; the
vault password client and the pre-commit vault guard depend on it (ADR-002).
- **The venv-activate hook** — this repo expects the Python `.venv` active for Bash
commands. If you use the user-level `~/.claude/hooks/activate-venv.sh` pattern,
replicate it; otherwise `source .venv/bin/activate` per session after `make setup`.
## 4. A note on user-level settings
The dangerous-mode permission prompt (`skipDangerousModePermissionPrompt`) is a
*personal* `~/.claude/settings.json` preference, not carried here. Given ADR-002's
"operator/agent error" threat, prefer leaving that prompt **on** unless you
deliberately rely on bypass mode.
## Verifying
After setup, a quick check: the project commands (`/review-repo`, `/capacity-review`,
`/lint`, `/deploy`, `/new-role`) and the `superpowers` skills should be available, and
`context7` / `terraform` MCP tools should resolve.
