<2-3 sentences summarising what the project addresses and solves, the target audience, and the benefit.> Clavix provides an agentic framework for transforming vague ideas into production-ready prompts and project artifacts like PRDs. It targets developers and AI engineers seeking to streamline AI-assisted coding workflows, offering structured prompt optimization, planning, and implementation management through a set of AI-executable slash commands.

How It Works

Clavix operates on an "agentic-first" principle where Markdown templates guide AI agents. Users initialize Clavix, which sets up these templates. Invoking a slash command (e.g., /clavix:improve) instructs the AI agent to read and follow the corresponding Markdown instructions, leveraging its native tools to process prompts, generate PRDs, or manage implementation tasks. The core innovation lies in using Markdown templates as the executable product, with no TypeScript running during command execution.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Primary install / run command: npm install -g clavix, followed by clavix init in a project directory.
• Non-default prerequisites and dependencies: Node.js version 18.0.0 or higher, npm or yarn, and a compatible AI coding tool (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI).
• Links: Getting Started, Commands Reference, Architecture, Integrations.

Highlighted Details

• Supports a wide array of AI coding tools, including IDE extensions (Cursor, Windsurf) and CLI agents (Claude Code, Gemini).
• Offers distinct workflows: Quick Path (prompt optimization and implementation), Full Planning (PRD generation, task breakdown, verification), Exploratory (conversational requirement discovery), and Refinement (iterative prompt/PRD updates).
• Utilizes the CLEAR framework for prompt optimization and workflow management.

Maintenance & Community

The README does not provide specific details on maintainers, community channels (like Discord/Slack), or roadmap beyond contribution guidelines.

Licensing & Compatibility

• License type: Apache-2.0.
• Compatibility notes: Permissive license generally suitable for commercial use and integration into closed-source projects.

Limitations & Caveats

The system's effectiveness is heavily dependent on the capabilities of the underlying AI coding tools and the quality of the Markdown templates. It requires users to have an existing AI coding environment set up. The "agentic-first" nature means direct execution relies on external AI agent interpretation.
