🚀 Bushi Framework

Build Shit Fast

A comprehensive framework for solo developers/entrepreneurs to build micro-SaaS and indie hacking businesses.

🎯 Philosophy

Build Shit Fast - No overthinking, no role-switching overhead, just focused expertise when you need it.

What It Is

Bushi Framework is a set of "mental roles" that can be activated when needed, eliminating the overhead of role-switching for solo founders. Think of it as having a team of experts in your head that you can activate with simple commands.

Currently only works with Cursor IDE - The framework uses Cursor rules (.mdc files) to detect and activate the different agent roles.

Node.js: Requires Node.js version 18.0.0 or higher. For optimal ES Module compatibility, Node.js 20.0.0+ is recommended.

🚀 Quick Start

Get Bushi Framework running in your project:

1. Install & Initialize:

   npx bushi@latest init

2. Open your project in Cursor IDE

3. Start using the agents with commands like /ba, /ta, /dx, etc.

Bushi automatically handles updates when you run the init command again.

📁 How It's Structured

When you run npx bushi@latest init, Bushi creates this folder structure in your project:

your-project/
├── .cursor/
│   └── rules/
│       ├── bushi.mdc          # Main framework rules
│       └── bushi-limits.mdc   # Framework constraints
└── .bushi/
    ├── agents/                # Agent-specific files
    │   ├── business-architect.mdc
    │   ├── design-experience.mdc
    │   ├── technical-architect.mdc
    │   ├── growth-strategist.mdc
    │   └── business-operations.mdc
    ├── bushi-start.mdc        # Framework onboarding
    ├── roadmap-router.mdc     # Smart task routing
    └── docs/                  # Project documentation folder
        ├── roadmap.md         # Your project roadmap (created by you)
        └── prd.md            # Product requirements document

The .cursor/rules/ files tell Cursor IDE how to recognize and activate Bushi commands. The .bushi/ folder contains the framework files, while the docs/ subfolder is where you'll create your project-specific documentation like roadmaps and requirements.
