A methodology kit for engineering-led AI development — spec-driven, test-driven, charter-bound. ATDD + mutation testing + deterministic guardrails. AI agents do the typing. Engineers stay in charge of architecture, behavior contracts, and verification.

Use to produce a risk-based refactor + test plan for recently-changed code on a diff/branch/PR by computing CRAP (complexity × untested) on changed methods. Multi-language — TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java, Kotlin, Go, Ruby, C#, Rust, PHP — auto-discovers how the repo
Open skill - /arch-check
Use to check a feature's code against the charter's architecture rules — dependency layering, cycles, forbidden patterns, file naming, file size. Triggers — "/engineer.arch-check", "architecture check", "check architecture fitness", "does this follow the charter", "check
Open skill - /atdd
Use to write a feature's acceptance specs and generate its test pipeline — Checkpoint 3 of the DAE pipeline. The engineer-namespace entry point into the atdd plugin's acceptance workflow. Triggers — "/engineer.atdd", "write the spec", "Checkpoint 3", "formalize the ACs as
Open skill - /clarify
Use when a single DAE artifact has ambiguities to resolve. Triggers — "/engineer.clarify", "clarify this spec", "resolve ambiguities", "this is vague — tighten it".
Open skill - /consistency-check
Use to validate DAE artifacts for schema correctness and cross-artifact consistency. Triggers — "/engineer.consistency-check", "check consistency", "validate the artifacts", "are the specs and ACs in sync", "audit this feature".
Open skill - /discover-acs
Use when a Ready feature needs its acceptance criteria discovered before specs are written. Triggers — "/engineer.discover-acs", "/engineer.acceptance-criteria", "discover ACs", "what must this feature do", "figure out acceptance criteria".
