SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap the .adlc/ directory structure for a new repository or subdirectory, enabling standardized setup for spec-driven development and onboard workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create the .adlc/ scaffold with ETHOS, context, specs, bugs, knowledge areas, and templates to jumpstart ADLC work.
  • Provide idempotent initialization that reports existing structure and can fill gaps without overwriting user changes.
  • Automate copying canonical ETHOS and template files into the project, and update ignore rules and retrieval taxonomy.

Quick Start

Run /init in a new repository to create the .adlc/ scaffold and copy templates, ETHOS, and example context.

Frequently Asked Questions about init

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I initialize a spec-driven development scaffold in a new repository?▼

Initializing a spec-driven scaffold creates a ready-to-use .adlc/ directory containing ETHOS, context, specs, bugs, knowledge areas, and templates. This standardizes your repository structure for onboard workflows and spec-driven development.

What is the .adlc directory structure used for?▼

The .adlc directory structure provides a standardized scaffold for spec-driven development, organizing ETHOS, context, specs, bugs, knowledge areas, and templates to jumpstart project onboarding and development workflows.

Can I run project scaffolding initialization on an existing repository without overwriting my files?▼

Yes, the initialization process is idempotent. It safely reports existing .adlc/ structures and fills missing gaps without overwriting your existing files, preserving user changes while completing the scaffold setup.

What does ADLC workflow initialization include besides creating directories?▼

ADLC workflow initialization includes automating the copying of canonical ETHOS and template files into your project, updating gitignore rules, and configuring retrieval taxonomy to enable seamless spec-driven development.

How do I bootstrap ETHOS context and templates for a new subdirectory project?▼

To bootstrap ETHOS context and templates for a subdirectory, run the initialization command targeting that path. It orchestrates directory creation, file copying, and configuration updates to establish the full .adlc/ scaffold.
