Claude Code Workflow (CCW) transforms AI development from simple prompt chaining into a robust, context-first orchestration system. It solves execution uncertainty and error accumulation through structured planning, deterministic execution, and intelligent multi-model orchestration.

🎉 Version 5.5: Interactive Command Guide & Enhanced Documentation

Core Improvements:

• ✨ Command-Guide Skill - Interactive help system with CCW-help and CCW-issue triggers
• ✨ Enhanced Command Descriptions - All 69 commands updated with detailed functionality descriptions
• ✨ 5-Index Command System - Organized by category, use-case, relationships, and essentials
• ✨ Smart Recommendations - Context-aware next-step suggestions for workflow guidance

See CHANGELOG.md for full details.

✨ Core Concepts

CCW is built on a set of core principles that differentiate it from traditional AI development approaches:

• Context-First Architecture: Pre-defined context gathering eliminates execution uncertainty by ensuring agents have the correct information before implementation.
• JSON-First State Management: Task states live in .task/IMPL-*.json files as the single source of truth, enabling programmatic orchestration without state drift.
• Autonomous Multi-Phase Orchestration: Commands chain specialized sub-commands and agents to automate complex workflows with zero user intervention.
• Multi-Model Strategy: Leverages the unique strengths of different AI models (Gemini for analysis, Codex for implementation) for superior results.
• Hierarchical Memory System: A 4-layer documentation system provides context at the appropriate level of abstraction, preventing information overload.
• Specialized Role-Based Agents: A suite of agents (@code-developer, @test-fix-agent, etc.) mirrors a real software team to handle diverse tasks.

🚀 Getting Started

The best way to get started is to follow the 5-minute tutorial in the Getting Started Guide.

Here is a quick example of a common development workflow:

1. Create a Plan (automatically starts a session):

   /workflow:plan "Implement JWT-based user login and registration"

2. Execute the Plan:

   /workflow:execute

3. Check Status (optional):

   /workflow:status
