Structured diagnosis-correction-resume cycle when agents get stuck during implementation. Classifies root causes into six categories, injects corrective context, and re-dispatches with enriched prompts. Writes recovery records for retrospective analysis. Use when a subagent is stuck, a task has stalled, an agent…
Generate an AST-based symbol index of the repository. Extracts exported functions, classes, types, and interfaces, ranks by reference count, and outputs a repo map for drift detection by /adev:hygiene. Use when the user wants to map the codebase, generate a symbol index, understand the project structure, or prepare…
Structured research skill. Investigates a topic using internal codebase search, web search, and GitHub code search, producing an organized research artifact. Use when the user says 'research', 'investigate', 'compare', 'how do others do this', 'best practices for', 'what are the options', or wants to explore…
Analyze completed work over a time period to extract lessons, compute delivery metrics, identify improvement opportunities, and update context artifacts. Sprint retrospective for agentic development. Use when the user says 'run a retro', 'what went well', 'review the sprint', 'delivery metrics', or wants to reflect on…
Run parallel specialist reviews (structural, security, consistency) on Live Specs before planning. Use for architecture review and expert evaluation. In Codex, invoke with $adev:review-specs.
Score tasks on a four-dimensional routing matrix (spec completeness, pattern coverage, blast radius, novelty) and recommend auto-agent, assisted-agent, or human-only execution for each task in a plan. Use when the user asks 'which tasks need human review', 'score the tasks', 'route the plan', or wants to decide which…
Scan the codebase for high-quality implementations, score them against constitution and patterns, and curate annotated golden samples in .context-index/samples/. Golden samples serve as reference implementations that guide subagents during /adev:implement. Use when the user wants to find good examples, curate…
Author Live Specs within a Feature Charter's scope. Supports modes for new features, extraction from existing code, refactoring, diff-driven changes, and cross-cutting concerns. Use when the user says 'write a spec', 'define the behavior', 'create a contract', 'specify the feature', or needs to formalize requirements…
Query project status across charters, specs, capabilities, sessions, and source manifests. Read-only dashboard view of adev lifecycle artifacts. Use when the user asks 'what is the status', 'show project progress', 'which specs are done', 'charter status', 'capability progress', or wants a summary of where things…
Sync constitution to CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and other agent files declared in manifest.yaml. Run after editing the constitution or when agent files are out of date. Use when the user says 'sync agent files', 'update agent files', 'constitution changed', 'regenerate agent configs', or after any edit to constitution.md.…
Gateway skill for the Agentic Development Framework. Injected at session start to establish methodology, available skills, and context routing; also answers on-demand questions during a session. Use when the user asks 'what skills are available', 'how does adev work', 'what is the adev methodology', 'show me the…
Post-implementation validation with a trimmed code-time check set (quality gates, source manifest, code-drift advisory, spec compliance with scope-expansion sub-finding, constitution compliance with evidence-citation contract, optionally governance boundaries and transition gates, and visual verification for UI…
The single front door to adev. Classifies incoming work, reads in-progress project state, routes to the right lifecycle skill, and can drive the whole lifecycle end-to-end so the user never has to pick another command. Use whenever the user is unsure which skill to use, wants to start new work, resume in-progress…
TDD test authoring: write failing tests (RED phase), produce immutable handoff blocks, and detect specification gaming. Use before implementation. In Codex, invoke with $adev:write-test.
