Validate
Validate any ADLC phase output before advancing
Analyze
Codebase health audit — identify technical debt, quality issues, and improvement opportunities
Wrapup
Close out a completed feature — update ADLC artifacts, log knowledge, and summarize
Init
Bootstrap .adlc/ structure in a new repo or subdirectory
Reflect
Post-implementation self-review — catch issues before /review
Manifest
Remote-derived view of all in-flight ADLC work — open PRs and pushed feat/REQ-* branches across every session — with a coarse component/domain overlap report. Read-only and advisory.
Optimize
API cost & performance scanner — identify expensive operations and optimization opportunities
Canary
Canary deployment with smoke tests — deploy to a zero-traffic revision, run health checks, and promote on success. Use when the user says "canary deploy", "deploy with canary", "smoke test the deploy", or wants deployment confidence before going live.
Proceed
End-to-end ADLC pipeline that takes a requirement from spec through to deployed. Takes a REQ number as argument and runs validate → fix → architect → fix → implement → verify (reflect + review) → create PR → wrapup (merge, deploy, knowledge capture). Use when the user says "proceed", "proceed with REQ-xxx", "run the pipeline", "take REQ-xxx to completion", "implement REQ-xxx end to end", or wants…
Review
Multi-agent code review covering correctness, quality, architecture, test coverage, and security
Spec
Write requirement specs from feature requests
Adversary
Adversarial review of any artifact — a spec, architecture doc, task breakdown, diff/PR, plan, README, or plain prose claim. Assumes the artifact is wrong, broken, or incomplete, tries to prove it, and reports only the findings that survive its own refutation attempts. Read-only and artifact-agnostic. Use when the user says "attack this", "adversary", "red-team this spec/plan/PR", "try to break th…
Status
Show current state of all ADLC work across the project
Architect
Design architecture and break requirement into tasks
Bugfix
End-to-end bug fix workflow — report, analyze, fix, verify, ship (PR + merge + deploy + knowledge capture)
Sprint
Parallel pipeline orchestrator — launch multiple /proceed sessions concurrently across REQs, monitor progress, and report status. Use when the user says "sprint", "run these REQs in parallel", "proceed with all approved REQs", "launch a sprint", or wants to advance multiple requirements simultaneously.
Template Drift
Detect drift across ALL the sync surfaces `/init` vendors into a project — `.adlc/templates/*.md`, `.adlc/partials/*.sh`, `.adlc/ETHOS.md`, and the workflow runtime (`.adlc/workflows/adlc-sprint.workflow.js` + `README.md`) — against the canonical copies in `~/.claude/skills/`. Use when the user says "check template drift", "template drift", "are my templates out of date", or wants to know whether…
