Claude in a Pipe — Turn Claude Code Into a Command Your Other Tools Can Call

Have you ever wished you could use Claude without stopping to have a conversation with it?

Every time you open the console, type a request, read the reply, and copy the useful part out, you are doing by hand what a single shell command could do — and until Claude can be called like any other command, it can never become part of the small tools and scripts you already rely on.

What you'll do

Two working shell commands — `brief` and `triage` — built on one tested `~/bin/ccfilter` wrapper that turns Claude Code into a non-interactive text filter: text in, clean text or schema-validated JSON out, a per-call cost readout on request, and a proven non-zero exit code when a call fails instead of silent garbage flowing downstream.
