can anybody helps me to solve this tricky problem ?
I've tried many ways to rig this but it not works like I want.
it's a claw foot joint that can use as hand, it have 4 joint, I want it can roll in 3 diferent pivot and also can curl just like this image. it's like the finger joint that can roll and also can curl.

This is jsut a matter of setting up the SC solvers and set driven keys correctly. I wont be able to take a look at this till later tonight. But I will see about doing this. If you look at the posts I have made look for the thread on Leg setups. This is a start inthe right direction. The claw would just be an extension of the toe or ball group, then just a matter of setting up Set driven keys to control the curl.

Just adding to DS's suggestion, I would group all of the SCik chains to themselves as well and drive those with the SKD's personally, would help keep things cleaner. But he's got the solution for you, just a bunch of SC solvers and some clever grouping and you should be set.
