How do I install flow?
- Check your Claude Code version. Mods need Claude Code 2.1.287 or later and are on by default.
claude --version
- Read its footprint. This lists every event it hooks and every API call it makes, without running it.
git clone https://github.com/stanvx/flow-stack claude plugin validate ./flow-stack/.
- Install it. Run this in your terminal, then /reload-plugins in an open session.
claude plugin marketplace add stanvx/flow-stack && claude plugin install flow@flow-stack
Or ask Claude to set it up
Paste this into Claude Code and it installs flow for you:
Install the "flow" Claude Code mod from https://github.com/stanvx/flow-stack. Run claude plugin validate on it first and show me what it can access before you enable it.
