dev-workflow
CLI tool that installs the Spec Driven Development (SDD) workflow skill into Claude Code projects.
SDD is a structured development cycle: define what you want before writing code, then implement from specifications. Each phase produces a persistent artifact that the next session consumes.
SPEC → PLAN → IMPLEMENT → VERIFYInstall
npm i -g dev-workflowRequires Node.js >= 18.
Usage
Initialize
Install the SDD skill into your Claude Code configuration:
dev-workflow init # global (default)
dev-workflow init --local # current project onlyUpdate
Update the skill files to the latest version:

Once installed, the /dev-workflow slash command becomes available in Claude Code. It guides you through four phases:
- SPEC — Define what the feature does (functional requirements, edge cases, acceptance criteria)
- PLAN — Translate the spec into ordered tasks with file maps and architecture decisions
- IMPLEMENT — Build each task iteratively: RED → GREEN → REFACTOR, with user review between tasks
- VERIFY — Lint, type-check, commit, and open a PR
Each phase can run in a separate session — the artifacts travel, not the context.
