🎯 Why Guild System?

❌ Traditional AI Problems

• Generic, one-size-fits-all responses
• No understanding of your project patterns
• Works slowly, one task at a time
• Forgets context between conversations
• No quality assurance or verification

✅ Guild System Solution

• 🧠 Project-aware specialists that learn your patterns
• ⚡ 5-10x faster through mandatory parallel execution with ultrathink reasoning
• 👤 Human-in-the-middle control - your approval required
• 📚 Persistent knowledge across sessions
• ✅ Built-in verification ensures complete, quality results
• 🔄 Intelligent coordination - all subagents use deep reasoning and parallel tool execution

🚀 Installation & First Use

1. Install Guild Commands

npx claude-guild@latest

2. Set Up Your Project

# In your project directory
/guild:setup

Creates intelligent specialists tailored to your codebase.

3. Execute Tasks

# Simple tasks
/guild "fix the login bug"
/guild "add a loading spinner component"

# Complex features (parallel execution)
/guild "implement real-time chat with websockets"
/guild "add user profile management with photo upload"

💡 Real-World Examples

Simple: Bug Fix (1-3 minutes)

You: /guild "fix the login validation error"
Guild: → Login Specialist analyzes your auth patterns
       → Identifies issue in validation logic  
       → Fixes bug following your error handling conventions
       → Updates tests and verifies functionality

Complex: New Feature (5-8 minutes vs 30-60 minutes traditionally)

You: /guild "implement real-time chat feature"  
Guild: → Frontend Specialist (chat UI components)
       → Backend Specialist (WebSocket handling)
       → Database Specialist (message storage)
       → Testing Specialist (integration tests)
       → All work simultaneously with coordinated integration

🏗️ How It Works

1. Pure Orchestration

Guild is an intelligent orchestrator that:

• Analyzes tasks and identifies requirements
• Delegates to subagents with ultrathink reasoning
• Coordinates parallel execution for maximum speed
• Synthesizes results with comprehensive validation

2. 5 Mandatory Requirements

Every Guild workflow enforces:

1. Subagent Delegation - Complex work via specialized subagents
2. Parallel Execution - Independent tasks run simultaneously
3. ULTRATHINK Keyword - Deep reasoning for all delegated work
4. Fresh Context - Current documentation from Context7/WebSearch
5. Final Validation - Verify completeness before reporting

3. Dynamic Intelligence

• No hardcoded procedures - adapts to your specific needs
• Creates specialists based on YOUR tech stack
• Discovers YOUR project patterns automatically
• Everything else is intelligent ultrathink judgment
