+## ❓ FAQ
+
+### General Questions
+
+**Q: What is Claude-Flow?**
+A: Claude-Flow is an enterprise-grade AI agent orchestration platform that enables distributed AI development through swarm intelligence, featuring 54+ specialized agents and 87 MCP tools.
+
+**Q: How is Claude-Flow different from other AI tools?**
+A: Claude-Flow provides true multi-agent coordination with swarm intelligence, persistent memory management, and enterprise-grade features like security, monitoring, and scalability.
+
+**Q: Do I need Claude Code to use Claude-Flow?**
+A: While Claude-Flow can work independently, Claude Code integration provides the best experience with full MCP protocol support and seamless agent coordination.
+
+### Installation and Setup
+
+**Q: Which Node.js version should I use?**
+A: Claude-Flow requires Node.js ≥ 20.0.0. We recommend using the latest LTS version for best performance and security.
+
+**Q: Can I use Claude-Flow without global installation?**
+A: Yes! Using `npx claude-flow@alpha` is actually recommended as it always uses the latest version without requiring global installation.
+
+**Q: How do I handle API key configuration?**
+A: Set your API keys as environment variables or in the `.claude-flow.json` configuration file. Never commit API keys to version control.
+
+### Usage and Functionality
+
+**Q: How many agents can I run simultaneously?**
+A: By default, Claude-Flow can handle up to 100 concurrent agents. This can be configured based on your system resources and API limits.
+
+**Q: Can I create custom agents?**
+A: Currently, Claude-Flow provides 54+ pre-built agents. Custom agent creation is planned for a future release.
+
+**Q: How does the memory system work?**
+A: Claude-Flow uses a distributed memory system with SQLite backend by default. Memory is automatically synchronized across agents and persists between sessions.
+
+**Q: What swarm topology should I choose?**
+A: 
+- **Mesh**: Best for creative collaboration and fault tolerance
+- **Hierarchical**: Ideal for large, structured projects
+- **Centralized**: Good for simple, sequential tasks
+- **Distributed**: Perfect for parallel processing with load balancing
+
+### Performance and Optimization
+
+**Q: How can I improve task execution speed?**
+A: Enable parallel processing, use appropriate swarm topologies, configure caching, and ensure adequate system resources.
+
+**Q: What should I do if I hit API rate limits?**
+A: Configure multiple providers, adjust rate limiting settings, or implement request batching and queuing.
+
+**Q: How much disk space does Claude-Flow use?**
+A: Base installation requires ~100MB. Memory database and cache can grow based on usage, typically 10-100MB for most projects.

+A: Claude-Flow includes automatic fault recovery. You can also check logs with `npx claude-flow@alpha logs` and restart failed tasks.
+
+**Q: How do I debug performance issues?**
+A: Use the built-in diagnostics: `npx claude-flow@alpha diagnostics --performance` and monitor real-time metrics.
+
+**Q: Where can I get help if I'm stuck?**
+A: Check this guide, review the comprehensive documentation, search GitHub issues, or join our Discord community.
+
+### Advanced Features
+
+**Q: How does SPARC methodology work?**
+A: SPARC (Specification → Pseudocode → Architecture → Refinement → Code) is a structured development methodology that ensures thorough planning and high-quality implementation.
+
+**Q: Can I use Claude-Flow for machine learning projects?**
+A: Yes! Claude-Flow includes specialized ML agents for model development, training, and deployment.
+
+**Q: How secure is Claude-Flow?**
