README
English · Русский
**Vanguard** turns Claude Code into a command center. A live pane shows your squad of subagents, rate limits and what fills the context window. An orchestrator layer teaches Claude to split big tasks across specialist agents, look up current docs and prove its work before calling it done. A lifetime profile with levels and achievements follows you across every session and project.
It installs in two commands and opens by itself in every session.
Install
In Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add XXX1694/Vanguard
/plugin install vanguard@vanguard
Start a new session, or run `/vanguard` to open the pane now.
**Requirements:** Claude Code 2.1.290 or newer (the live pane uses Claude Code's plugin hooks, which are in early access). Node.js 18+ for the bundled `sequential-thinking` and `playwright` MCP servers.
What you get
Live pane
Opens beside the conversation at the start of every session (`/vanguard` opens it any time).
The pane speaks **10 languages**: English, Русский, 中文, हिन्दी, Español, Português, 日本語, 한국어, Deutsch and Français. It follows your system locale, and the switcher at the end of the tab row changes it on the spot. A native list appears on the desktop, and on the terminal a button cycles through the languages. Your choice is remembered in your profile.
