# Server Documentation System Set up a documentation system that tracks changes and maintains server/project documentation with Claude Code hooks. ## When to Use - Setting up a new server or development environment - Need to track configuration changes over time - Want automatic documentation of work sessions - Maintaining changelog for infrastructure ## Directory Structure ``` ~/docs/ # User home directory (cross-platform) ├── changelog.md # Global over
development
Delegate tasks to remote Claude Code agent containers for parallel execution, long-running analysis, or resource-intensive operations.
development
Use when working on multiple features simultaneously. Creates isolated workspaces without branch switching, enabling parallel development.
