TDK - TiHon Development Kit

TDK (TiHon Development Kit) is a specification-driven coding workflow toolkit for Claude Code. It generates specs, plans, tasks, and code from natural language — shipped as a set of marketplace plugins + a TypeScript CLI.

Core philosophy: SDD (Specification-Driven Development) — every feature starts from a formal spec, flows through structured plans and tasks, and is verified against the spec before shipping.

What It Does

TDK structures the full development loop:

1. Specify — generate feature specs from natural language (/tdk:specify)
2. Plan — break specs into phased implementation plans (/tdk:plan)
3. Implement — execute plans with guided task tracking (/tdk-implement)
4. Verify — auto-backfill unit tests, check rules, validate coverage (/tdk:ut-backfill-auto)
5. Track — status dashboards, checklists, progress sync (/tdk:status, /tdk:tasks)

Additional workflows: config management, sub-workspace docs generation, scout (codebase analysis), memory management, API test generation.

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Bun runtime
• Claude Code CLI

Install into a Consumer Project

# From the consumer project root:
bash /path/to/tdk/setup.sh

This installs TDK's marketplace plugins, templates, and configurations into the consumer project's .specify/ directory.

Install Claude harness artifacts explicitly after the substrate sync:

cd .specify/scripts/ts
bun src/index.ts harness install --harness claude --plugins tdk-core --dry-run
bun src/index.ts harness install --harness claude --plugins tdk-core --yes

CLI Usage (Development)

cd .specify/scripts/ts

# Run integrated CLI
bun src/index.ts --help

# Run individual commands
bun src/commands/detect-config.ts
bun src/commands/manifest/compute.ts --root ../..

Plugins

Plugin	Skills	Purpose
tdk-core	17	Specify, plan, implement, fix, config, sub-workspace, ut-backfill
tdk-utils	14	Scout, research, brainstorming, docs-seeker, context-engineering, problem-solving
tdk-memory	6	Domain memory: init, update, checksum, changelog, query, preload
tdk-test-api	3	Test plan, testcase generation, Playwright code gen

CLI Commands

Integrated commands (via bun src/index.ts):

Command	Description
tdk config detect	Detect .specify.json configuration
tdk config index	Index configuration files
tdk config diff	Compare docs between workspace and sub-workspace
tdk ut auto	Automated unit test backfill
tdk ut plan	Plan unit test coverage
tdk ut impl	Implement unit tests from plan
tdk ut check-rules	Validate UT rules
tdk ut create-rules	Generate UT rules
tdk scout	Codebase analysis (repomix + tier-1 extraction)
tdk harness install	Install selected TDK plugin artifacts into .claude/ with dry-run, ownership, collision, drift, and hook safety
tdk sub-workspace docs	Generate sub-workspace documentation

Standalone scripts (via bun src/commands/<path>.ts): manifest, feature, setup, changelog, util, test-api.

Tech Stack

• Runtime: Bun
• Language: TypeScript (strict mode, noUncheckedIndexedAccess)
• CLI: Commander.js
• Validation: Zod schemas for config/data, Commander for CLI args
