Frequently Asked Questions
FAQPage SchemaHow to install lid?βΌ
Run `npx skills add jszmajda/lid --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.
What problem does Linked-Intent Development solve?βΌ
It stops coding agents from building the wrong thing by making you agree on design and written requirements before any code is written. Every change flows from design docs to specs to tests to code, so intent never drifts from implementation.
Can I use LID on an existing codebase?βΌ
Yes. The map-codebase skill reads your existing code, proposes ways to organize it, and generates skeleton design docs and specs you then fill in.
Does LID work with Cursor or GitHub Copilot?βΌ
Yes. Any coding tool that reads project instruction files like AGENTS.md can follow the same workflow; setup snippets for each tool are included in the docs.
Do I need to write specs manually?βΌ
No. The agent drafts design docs and structured requirements for you at each phase, and you simply review and approve before it writes tests and code.
