Even Wei's Plugins

A Claude Code plugin marketplace containing development workflow tools.

Plugins

incremental-development

A plugin that enforces structured, incremental development workflows. Prevents scope creep and premature implementation by separating planning from execution.

Why? When working with AI coding assistants, it's easy to jump straight into implementation without proper scoping. This leads to:

• Scope creep: Unrelated refactoring and "improvements" sneaking in
• Premature abstractions: Building for hypothetical future requirements
• Incomplete solutions: Missing edge cases discovered mid-implementation
• Wasted iterations: Rework due to misunderstood requirements

This plugin enforces a "understand first, implement second" approach.

Installation

Step 1: Add the Marketplace

claude plugin marketplace add even-wei/incremental-development

Step 2: Install Plugin

claude plugin install incremental-development@even-wei-plugins

Alternative: Local Development

git clone https://github.com/even-wei/incremental-development.git
claude --plugin-dir ./incremental-development/plugins/incremental-development

How It Works

The skill automatically activates when you ask Claude to build, implement, or develop features. It enforces two distinct phases:

Phase 1: Understand (No Code)

Before touching any code, Claude produces a plan covering:

• What files will be touched
• High-level approach (one sentence per file)
• What could go wrong (risks, edge cases)
• What's explicitly out of scope

Claude waits for your confirmation before proceeding.

Phase 2: Implement (Incrementally)

Work proceeds in small, verifiable steps:

• One logical change per step
• Verification after each step
• Clear checkpoints where you could stop with working code

Usage

The skill activates automatically when you:

• Ask to "build", "implement", "develop", or "create" features
• Work on tasks involving multiple files
• Request changes that could have ripple effects

Example Prompts

"Build a user authentication system"
"Implement dark mode for the settings page"
"Create an API endpoint for user profiles"
"Add form validation to the signup flow"

Skipping the Plan

For trivial changes (< 10 lines, single file), Claude may skip the formal plan. You can also explicitly say:

• "Just do it" or "Skip the planning"
