A Commander-in-Chief (abbreviated CinC or CINC) is the supreme commander of an entire military or other type of service organization. If the person occupying this position is within the military hierarchy they are the senior flag officer and by definition have the highest service rank possible.

Starfleet's Commander-in-Chief was a position held by the senior Fleet Admiral, who took orders only from the Federation Council and its President.
