nawwwal-dex

dex

A vault system for Claude Code. Gives Claude persistent memory, design intelligence, quality agents, and smart onboarding. Built for the design team at Razorpay.

Install

/plugin marketplace add nawwwal/dex
/plugin install core@nawwwal-dex       # everyone — setup, memory, workflow
/plugin install design@nawwwal-dex     # designers — critique, dashboard, UI review
/plugin install tools@nawwwal-dex      # optional — research, dev, creative tools
/dex setup

Add the marketplace once, then install the plugins you need. /dex setup reads your Slack and DevRev (with your permission) to generate a personalized CLAUDE.md and scaffold your memory structure.

Prerequisites

• Compass plugin (includes Blade MCP) — required
• Figma MCP — optional, enables design skills
• python3, jq, node — required by setup and local scripts

What you get

Skills

Category	Skills
Design	dashboard-design, critique-5f, design
Thinking	council, codex, deep-research
Development	tdd, react-doctor, agent-browser, agent-development
Workflow	assistant, ops, today, switch-project
Writing	writing-skills, beautiful-mermaid, generate-image
Meta	dex, self-review-gather, reflect-others

Agents

Specialized subagents Claude spawns automatically: code reviewer, design reviewer, blade implementer, standup writer, sprint planner, animation expert, Next.js expert, GLSL reviewer, and more.

Memory system

/dex setup creates this structure (one-time, outside the plugin):

~/.claude/
├── CLAUDE.md           ← personalized identity + behavioral rules
├── TASKS.md            ← task tracking
├── memory/             ← 20 files: goals, patterns, decisions, voice, projects, etc.
├── career/             ← promotion case, evidence
├── log/                ← session journals
├── sessions/           ← session state persistence
├── config/             ← project registry
├── work/               ← project workspaces
├── archive/            ← archived decisions, patterns
└── people/             ← people profiles

memory/projects.md is a lightweight index that points into work/ for project context.

Customizing

Plugin files are managed by the plugin system. To customize a skill or agent:

1. Copy it to ~/.claude/skills/ or ~/.claude/agents/
2. Edit the local copy
3. The local copy takes precedence over the plugin version

Your customizations are never overwritten by plugin updates.

Dex does not require ~/.agents/skills or ~/.agents/agents to mirror ~/.claude/. Leave ~/.agents/ available for tools that manage their own installs there.

For developers

If you're developing dex (editing skills, agents, templates):

Working directory: Always ~/dex/.

After editing: Start a new Claude session or run /reload-plugins. Changes are live.

Releasing

Release maintenance is project-local, not part of the shipped plugin.

• The installed plugin keeps only the user-facing dex setup workflow.
• Repo-maintainer workflows like release operations live only in .claude/skills/dex/ and .codex/skills/dex/.
• This keeps the shipped plugin focused on usable end-user skills while leaving project maintenance local to this repository.

When you're ready to push updates to teammates:

/dex release tools            # patch bump tools
/dex release tools minor      # minor bump tools
/dex release tools major      # major bump tools

The project-level release skill bumps the selected plugin version, updates marketplace metadata, commits, tags, pushes, and creates a GitHub Release with changelog notes. Teammates update with:

/plugin update dex@nawwwal-dex

Updating

/plugin update core@nawwwal-dex
/plugin update design@nawwwal-dex
/plugin update tools@nawwwal-dex

Or reload plugins in an active session:

/reload-plugins
