SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Archon Dev provides a centralized, guided workflow for AI-assisted coding by routing tasks through specialized cookbooks, ensuring consistency and repeatability across development efforts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Routes to 10 specialized cookbooks based on the user's task: RESEARCH, INVESTIGATE, PRD, PLAN, IMPLEMENT, REVIEW, DEBUG, COMMIT, PR, ISSUE.
  • Enables context-aware execution by loading cookbook instructions into the agent's session for each phase.
  • Provides governance and traceability for architecture decisions, planning, and reviews within Archon projects.

Quick Start

To start, ask Archon to load a cookbook by name, for example archon-dev plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure deterministic AI-assisted coding workflows for consistent product development?

Deterministic AI-assisted coding workflows are structured by routing development tasks through cookbook-guided workflows, ensuring consistent and repeatable execution across research, planning, implementation, and review phases. This approach applies predefined sections for core patterns and context loading to support traceable outcomes.

What is the best way to add traceability and governance to AI development planning?

AI development planning gains traceability and governance by loading cookbook instructions into the agent session for each phase, which applies predefined sections for core patterns and context loading to track architecture decisions and reviews consistently.

Can I use cookbook-guided workflows for debugging and code review tasks?

Yes, you can use cookbook-guided workflows for debugging and code review tasks by routing them to specialized DEBUG and REVIEW cookbooks, which load context-aware instructions into the agent session to ensure consistent execution and traceable outcomes.

How do I start an Archon development workflow for a new feature plan?

To start an Archon development workflow for a new feature plan, ask the agent to load a cookbook by name, such as archon-dev plan, which routes the task to the appropriate predefined workflow and loads the necessary instructions into the session.

What are the limitations of routing development tasks through predefined cookbooks?

Routing development tasks through predefined cookbooks limits execution to the specific instructions loaded for each phase, meaning tasks must fit within the defined research, planning, implementation, and review categories to maintain deterministic and traceable outcomes.
