sdlc-help

An interactive guide for choosing commands, agents, and development phases in the DevForge AI toolkit. It groups common jobs such as starting a product, exploring code, debugging, and implementing fixes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a command navigator for building a startup, planning a feature, mapping a large codebase, diagnosing a checkout error, or implementing an issue.
Why use it?
It helps you find the relevant tool when you do not know which command or phase fits your task.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Per session 22 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 761 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sdlc-help scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

DevForge AI Interactive Guide & Command Navigator

Welcome to DevForge AI! This command helps you navigate the entire toolkit with zero confusion.

🧭 What are you trying to accomplish?

Select the scenario that matches your goal:


1. 🚀 Build a New Startup or SaaS Feature (0 to 1)

/sdlc-startup "Idea description"     # Scaffold MVP, Stripe monetization, PostHog telemetry & metrics
/sdlc-plan "Feature description"       # Structured interview (grill-me) -> PRD -> Tracer slices -> Linear issues
/sdlc "Feature description"            # Run the complete 5-Phase SDLC pipeline end-to-end

2. 🗺️ Explore & Navigate a Large Codebase (Up to 1.5M Files)

/sdlc-navigate "AuthService"           # Trace symbol callers, callees, and dependencies
/sdlc-navigate src/billing/ --deep     # Map module boundaries, imports, and coupling
/sdlc-navigate "payInvoice" --impact   # Show what breaks if you modify this function

3. 🔍 Debug & Fix Complex Bugs (Root Cause Analysis)

/sdlc-diagnose "500 error on checkout" # Funnel 1.5M files -> find root cause -> surgical fix
/sdlc-implement "Fix issue #42"        # Implement fix with self-correcting Ralph Loop

4. 🛡️ Security, CVEs, & Hardening

/sdlc-security --audit-only            # SAST, dependency CVE scan & OWASP Top 10 report
/sdlc-security --fix-cves              # Automatically patch vulnerable dependencies
/sdlc-security --protocol zero-trust   # Implement mTLS and strict auth policies

5. 🏛️ Modernize Legacy Code & Monoliths

/sdlc-modernize "legacy_engine.c" --snapshot-tests # Golden Master characterization test suite
/sdlc-modernize src/monolith/ --pattern strangler  # Strangler Fig proxy & microservice slice

6. 🧪 Run Multi-Tier Test Suites

/sdlc-test --suite unit                # Fast pure business logic tests
/sdlc-test --suite integration         # Testcontainers (Postgres, Redis, Kafka)
/sdlc-test --suite contract            # Pact / OpenAPI consumer contracts
/sdlc-test --suite e2e                 # Playwright browser journeys
/sdlc-test --suite perf                # k6 load & concurrency benchmarks
/sdlc-test --suite chaos               # Fault-injection & resilience simulations
/sdlc-test --suite all                 # Full enterprise verification matrix

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

sdlc-help is a command published in the GitHub repository saitarrun/Devforge-ai (5 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 761 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
