init-dev-team

Initialize AI Development Team

When the user runs /init-dev-team, follow this interactive workflow to bootstrap the project.

The plugin templates are at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/. Use them as a starting point.

Step 1: Gather Project Information

Ask the user the following questions (you can ask them all at once or conversationally):

1. Project name — "What's your project name?"
2. Project description — "Describe your project in 1-2 sentences. What does it do and who is it for?"
3. Tech stack — "What tech stack are you using?" (Ask for specifics:)
   • Backend framework & language (e.g., Node.js + Express, Python + Django, Go + Gin)
   • Frontend framework (e.g., React 18, Vue 3, Next.js, SvelteKit)
   • Database (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, SQLite)
   • ORM/query builder (e.g., Prisma, Drizzle, SQLAlchemy, TypeORM)
   • Testing tools (e.g., Vitest, Jest, Pytest, Playwright)
   • Package manager (e.g., npm, pnpm, bun, pip, cargo)
4. Architecture pattern — "What architecture pattern do you want to follow?" (e.g., Clean Architecture, MVC, Hexagonal, Layered, Modular Monolith)
5. Key domains — "What are the key domains/modules in your project?" (e.g., Users, Products, Orders, Payments, Notifications)
6. Language/locale — "What language should the UI be in?" (default: English)

Step 2: Create/Update All Files

Once you have the answers, create every file listed below in the user's project. Do NOT leave any <!-- CUSTOMIZE --> placeholders or (define your ...) text — fill everything in with the user's specifics.

2.1: Create CLAUDE.md

Read the template at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/CLAUDE.md.template, then create CLAUDE.md in the project root with:

• Project name as the heading
• The user's project description in the Overview section
• Current phase (default: "Phase 1 — see PRD.md")
• Full tech stack details filled in
• Project structure updated to match their stack
• Domain ownership mapped to agents
• Remove all <!-- CUSTOMIZE --> comments

2.2: Create PRD.md

Read the template at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/PRD.md.template, then create PRD.md in the project root with the project name, description, and template structure. Pre-fill what you can from the user's answers.

2.3: Create Domain Folders

For each domain the user specified:

1. Read the template at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/communication/_templates/domain-readme.md
2. Create communication/domains/{DomainName}/README.md
3. Pre-fill with the domain name and template sections

2.4: Copy Git Scripts

Copy the git helper scripts from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ to the project's scripts/ directory:

• git-agent-commit.sh
• git-agent-merge.sh

Make them executable with chmod +x.

2.5: Ensure Directory Structure

Make sure these directories exist (create if missing):

communication/domains/
backend/    (or appropriate name for their backend)
frontend/   (or appropriate name for their frontend)
scripts/

2.6: Initialize Git (if not already)

If the project is not already a git repository, offer to initialize one.

Add .claude/worktrees/ and .claude/agent-activity.log to .gitignore.

Step 3: Report Results

After all files are created/updated, display a summary:

AI Development Team initialized for '{ProjectName}'!
