Build software from idea to production in 7 phases.

Overview

graph LR
    S["/0-start"] --> B["/1-bootstrap"]
    B --> P["/2-plan"]
    P --> BU["/3-build"]
    BU --> R["/4-review"]
    R --> D["/5-deploy"]
    D --> O["/6-operate"]

Phases

Phase Command Orchestrator What happens
0. Start /0-start See the workflow, validate readiness
1. Bootstrap /1-bootstrap Scaffold project structure
2. Plan /2-plan conceptual Research, architecture, specs
3. Build /3-build Implementation with learning capture
4. Review /4-review implementation 6 parallel code reviewers
5. Deploy /5-deploy deployment Pre-deploy verification
6. Operate /6-operate bugfix, incident Production issue handling

When to use

Use the development workflow when you're writing code: APIs, web apps, services, libraries, CLI tools.

Typical flow

1. Create PRD.md with your vision
2. /1-bootstrap typescript-api my-project
3. /2-plan "Implement core features from PRD"
4. Write code based on the plan
5. /4-review
6. Fix issues from the review
7. /5-deploy
8. Deploy to production

Key features

  • Automatic knowledge capture: /journal records decisions during development
  • 6 parallel reviewers: security, TypeScript quality, race conditions, complexity, performance, patterns
  • Security hooks: secret scanning and security lint on every write
  • Learning loop: solutions compound over time
