aiwf-extensions

ai-workflow-rituals

A Claude Code plugin marketplace shipping engineering-ritual skills and role agents that complement aiwf.

Pre-alpha. Marketplace and plugin manifests scaffolded; no skills shipped yet.

What this is

aiwf is a narrow planning kernel: six entity kinds (epic, milestone, ADR, gap, decision, contract), stable IDs, validators, git-trailer history. It deliberately has no opinion about how the work gets done — branching, TDD, code review, milestone lifecycle, release ceremonies.

This repo ships those opinions, separately, as Claude Code plugins. Two plugins, both optional:

Plugin	Contains	When to install
aiwf-extensions	Milestone-lifecycle skills (aiwfx-start-milestone, aiwfx-wrap-milestone, aiwfx-wrap-epic, aiwfx-release, aiwfx-track, aiwfx-record-decision, …) plus four role agents (planner, builder, reviewer, deployer)	If you use aiwf as your planning kernel and want the milestone-driven engineering loop
wf-rituals	Generic engineering rituals (wf-patch, wf-tdd-cycle, wf-review-code, wf-doc-lint)	If you want the engineering rituals on their own — works on any repo, with or without aiwf

Install

In a Claude Code session, from inside a consumer repo:

/plugin marketplace add 23min/ai-workflow-rituals
/plugin install aiwf-extensions@ai-workflow-rituals
/plugin install wf-rituals@ai-workflow-rituals    # optional

Updates: /plugin update <name>@ai-workflow-rituals. Auto-update on startup is enabled by default while the marketplace is in active development.

Choosing an install scope

Claude Code asks where to install. Pick Project scope by default. It writes .claude/settings.json into the consumer repo, which means:

• Collaborators who clone the repo get the same plugins automatically.
• Your other projects (using v1, a different framework, or none at all) stay clean.
• The team's choice of rituals is reproducible and reviewable in PRs.

User scope is only right if you're sure you want these plugins available in every project on your machine. Local scope (gitignored) is right for short-term experimentation in a single repo.

For the planning kernel itself, see ai-workflow-v2:

go install github.com/23min/ai-workflow-v2/tools/cmd/aiwf@latest
aiwf init                # in your consumer repo

Coupling boundary

The two plugins differ in how tightly they couple to aiwf. This is deliberate.

• aiwfx-* skills — call aiwf shell verbs, reference aiwf's ID format (E-NN, M-NNN, …), use aiwf's status vocabulary. By definition coupled. If you don't use aiwf, this plugin is dead weight.
• wf-* skills — speak the language of the work (milestone, acceptance criteria, branch, test, PR) without mentioning aiwf, its IDs, its status vocabulary, or its directory layout. By design they survive an aiwf swap. They work the same against a repo using aiwf, against a repo using a different planning kernel, or against a repo using none.

This is a discipline, not an enforcement. Every wf-* skill goes through a coupling-boundary review at port time: "if aiwf were deleted tomorrow, would this skill still make sense?" If no, it belongs in aiwfx-*.
