Adding Departments

This is the core feature of cc-company. As you use it, the secretary suggests adding departments.

Suggestions from the Secretary

When tasks in the same area are repeated, the secretary suggests a new department.

> Research competitors for me
Secretary: Sure, I'll look into it.
  → Saved to secretary/notes/2026-03-19-competitor-research.md

(A few days later...)

> I'd also like to know about overseas trends
Secretary: Research requests are increasing.
           Shall I create a Research department?
           It can systematically manage research results in a dedicated folder.

You: Yes, create it

→ research/ is automatically generated

Note

If a department doesn't exist yet, the secretary saves results in secretary/notes/. Once a department is created, it gets its own dedicated management.

Direct Requests

Of course, you can also request directly.

> Create a PM department
Secretary: Creating a PM department now!

→ pm/ is automatically generated

What Gets Created

When a department is added, the following are auto-generated:

• Department folder — .company/[department]/
• Department CLAUDE.md — Rules and behavior for that department
• Subfolders — For file management
• Templates — For creating new files

For example, adding a Research department:

.company/
├── CLAUDE.md              ← Department list gets updated
├── secretary/
└── research/              ← Newly added
    ├── CLAUDE.md           ← Research rules
    └── topics/             ← Research topic management
