SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap a project by auto-detecting the tech stack, generating a project.json manifest, and scaffolding an initial agent system.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stack detection for existing projects and spec-driven creation
  • Manifest generation (docs/project.json)
  • Architecture guardrails and agent-system scaffolding
  • Optional spec-analysis and stack-advisor integration (future) and registry update

Quick Start

Run the bootstrap wizard to generate a stack-aware manifest and initial agent scaffolding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I bootstrap a project with automatic stack detection?▼

Project bootstrap automates the initialization of new or existing projects by auto-detecting the tech stack, generating a project.json manifest, and scaffolding an initial agent system.

What is project scaffolding and when do I need a project manifest?▼

Project scaffolding generates the initial boilerplate and architecture guardrails for an agent system. A project manifest is needed when bootstrapping local projects or adding GitHub repos to establish stack-aware configurations.

Can I generate agent scaffolding for an existing GitHub repository?▼

Yes, project bootstrap applies to adding a GitHub repo, bootstrapping a local project, or generating initial agent scaffolding by orchestrating spec-analysis, stack recommendation, and boilerplate creation.

What's the best way to automate project.json manifest generation?▼

Automating project.json manifest generation is best handled by running the bootstrap wizard, which orchestrates stack detection, architecture decisions, and registry updates to create a stack-aware manifest.

Does the bootstrap wizard require any dependencies to run?▼

No, the project bootstrap wizard has no dependencies and operates standalone to perform spec-analysis, stack detection, and scaffolding without requiring external components.

Why does stack detection matter when bootstrapping an agent system?▼

Stack detection identifies the existing technology stack to ensure the generated project manifest and agent scaffolding apply appropriate architecture guardrails and stack-aware configurations.
