Code Captain is an intelligent AI development workflow system that guides you through requirements gathering, planning, implementation, and project management.
Command
Create comprehensive Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that systematically document architectural decisions with clear rationale, alternatives considered, and consequences through a structured analysis and review process.
Command
Generate comprehensive feature specifications using a contract-first approach that ensures complete alignment between developer and AI before creating any supporting files. This command eliminates presumptuous file creation by establishing a clear "contract" through structured clarification rounds.
Command
Modify existing feature specifications using a contract-first approach that ensures complete alignment between developer and AI before updating any supporting files. This command prevents assumptions by establishing a clear "modification contract" through structured clarification rounds.
Command
Execute a specific task and its sub-tasks systematically following a Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow. This command reads task specifications from .code-captain/specs/ directories and implements features with comprehensive testing, following established code standards and best practices.
Command
Set up technical foundation and development infrastructure by detecting if this is a greenfield (new) or brownfield (existing) project and executing the appropriate technical setup workflow.
Command
A meta command that creates new Code Captain commands and skills for Claude Code, following established patterns and conventions. This command generates properly structured command files or skill directories, and ensures consistency across the Code Captain ecosystem.
Command
Generate comprehensive product planning documentation using a contract-first approach that establishes clear product vision, mission, and roadmap before creating any supporting files. This command eliminates assumptions by gathering complete product context through structured discovery, then creates a complete product…
Command
The explain-code command provides comprehensive, AI-powered explanations of code segments, functions, classes, or entire files. It combines natural language explanations with visual diagrams to help developers understand complex code quickly and thoroughly.
Command
Conduct systematic research on a topic using structured phases that build upon each other, creating actionable todos and leveraging web search capabilities.
Command
A command that provides developers with a comprehensive status report when starting work or switching context. Analyzes current git state, active work, and project health to orient developers and suggest next actions.
Command
A deck-cleaning agent that makes one small, focused improvement to the codebase, following the "Boy Scout Rule" - leave the code cleaner than you found it. This command identifies the single best small cleanup opportunity and applies it with your approval.
