L1DDERSpec-Driven & Roadmap-Gated AI Development

Control your entire product lifecycle with /l1-* slash commands and 'ok' approvals. Works with Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Windsurf, Copilot, OpenCode, and Cline.

Setup: Via Your AI Agent Chat or Terminal ​

🤖 Option 1: Ask Your AI Agent to Install It for You (Zero Terminal) ​

Copy and paste this single line into Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex chat:

text
Install the L1DDER framework in this project by running `npx l1dder@latest init --lang en --yes`, then immediately start onboarding from `l1dder/skills/l1-onboard/SKILL.md`

The agent will run npx l1dder@latest init --lang en --yes, read the agent instructions from CLI stdout, and immediately start Step 1 of project onboarding!

💻 Option 2: Run in Terminal ​

bash
# Interactive setup (choose language en/ru and your AI agents)
npx l1dder init

# Or non-interactive one-liner (defaults to Cursor, Claude Code & Codex):
npx l1dder init --lang en --yes

Then open your AI agent chat and type /l1-onboard.


Bundled Engineering Disciplines ​

Alongside the /l1-* workflow commands, L1DDER (l1dder/skills.json) bundles proven engineering skills out of the box:

  • DietrichGebert/ponytail — minimalism discipline (Lazy Senior Dev Mode): 6-step decision ladder, diff review ponytail-review, bloat scan ponytail-audit, and shortcut ledger ponytail-debt.
  • mattpocock/skills — engineering primitives: decision-tree interviewing grilling, ubiquitous language domain-modeling, deep modules codebase-design (Deep Modules & Seams), vertical tdd at pre-agreed seams, bug diagnosis diagnosing-bugs (RED Gate), two-axis code-review, and session retro.
