SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Archon-dev provides a structured, end-to-end development workflow powered by AI agents, enabling deterministic and auditable progress across research, planning, implementation, review, and shipping.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Routes to 10 specialized cookbooks based on the user task (research, investigate, prd, plan, implement, review, debug, commit, pr, issue) to handle different development tasks.
  • Integrates with codebase patterns, CLAUDE.md conventions, and artifact directories for artifact generation and traceability.
  • Supports intent- and keyword-based routing to ensure consistent task execution flows across Archon projects.

Quick Start

Tell the AI to load a cookbook (e.g., plan or implement) and begin the Archon development workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate AI-assisted development workflows for research, planning, and implementation?

You can automate AI-assisted development workflows by using deterministic routing to specialized cookbooks for research, planning, and implementation tasks. This enforces consistent task execution, artifact generation, and traceability across end-to-end development projects.

What is the best way to ensure deterministic and auditable progress across AI coding agents?

To ensure deterministic and auditable progress across AI coding agents, apply a frontmatter-driven skill with connected cookbooks. This structure enforces skill routing and artifact generation, making AI-assisted development reliable and traceable.

How do I route AI development tasks to specific cookbooks for reviewing and debugging code?

Route AI development tasks to specific cookbooks by using intent- and keyword-based routing. The system maps user tasks like review, debug, commit, and PR to 10 specialized cookbooks, ensuring consistent execution flows across projects.

Can I generate traceable artifacts and enforce codebase conventions during AI development?

Yes, you can generate traceable artifacts and enforce codebase conventions during AI development. The workflow integrates with existing codebase patterns, CLAUDE.md conventions, and artifact directories to maintain traceability throughout the process.

Does this AI workflow support end-to-end tasks from PRD creation to pull requests?

Yes, this AI workflow supports end-to-end tasks from PRD creation to pull requests. It provides specialized cookbooks for prd, plan, implement, commit, and pr tasks, covering the complete development lifecycle from research to shipping.
