**Lightweight enhancement kits for spec-driven development.**

<img width="2096" height="1383" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8ee06b31-d492-4add-bd60-8b60d8b88357" />

## What is this?

**`lite-kits`** adds modular enhancement kits to vanilla spec-driven development workflows built on [GitHub Spec-Kit](https://github.com/github/spec-kit).

Spec-Kit is a framework for AI-driven collaborative development (spec → plan → tasks → implement) using markdown prompts and scripts. Think "vibe coding" but with structure.

**lite-kits** adds three optional enhancement kits to vanilla spec-kit projects:

- 🎯 **project-kit** - Agent orientation (`/orient` command)
- 🔧 **git-kit** - Smart git workflows (`/commit`, `/pr`, `/cleanup`)
- 🤝 **multiagent-kit** - Multi-agent coordination (`/sync`, collaboration directories)

Each kit installs `.md` prompt files for AI assistants (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Copilot CLI) and optional scripts.

## Installation

### Prerequisites

1. **GitHub Spec-Kit** - Install the `specify` CLI tool:
   ```bash
   # See: https://github.com/github/spec-kit
   npm install -g @github/specify
   # Or use pipx, etc.
   ```

2. **Create a spec-kit project** (if you don't have one):
   ```bash
   specify init my-project
   cd my-project
   ```

3. **Python 3.11+** - For lite-kits itself

4. **AI Assistant** - At least one: GitHub Copilot, GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Claude Code VSCode Extension

### Install lite-kits

**Via pip** (when published):
```bash
pip install lite-kits
```

**From source** (current):
```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/tmorgan181/lite-kits.git
cd lite-kits

# Build the package
uv build

# Install with uv (recommended)
uv tool install dist/lite_kits-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl

# Or with pip
pip install dist/lite_kits-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl
```

## ✨ Beautiful CLI Experience

**lite-kits** v0.1.1 features a stunning ASCII banner system with UV-inspired modern CLI patterns:

- 🎨 **Beautiful ASCII Art** - LITE-KITS branding with professional charm

## Key Features

### 🔧 Git-Kit

Smart git workflow commands:

**`/commit`** - Intelligent commits with staging proposals
- Combined staging + commit message approval
- Multi-commit suggestions for large changesets
- Conventional commits with feature numbers
- Agent attribution tracking

**`/pr`** - Pull request creation with auto-push
- Automatic branch pushing before PR
- PR status checking (prevents duplicates)
- Smart description generation from commits
- Modular PR scope (only describes current work)

**`/cleanup`** - Safe branch cleanup
- Delete merged branches safely
- Optional remote deletion
- Current branch detection
- Protected branch safety

### 🎯 Project-Kit

**`/orient`** - Agent orientation command
- Reads project documentation
- Checks current git state
- Determines agent role
- Provides concise context

### 🤝 Multiagent-Kit

**`/sync`** - Multi-agent coordination status
- Visual sync status display
- Agent activity tracking
- Collaboration structure detection

**Collaboration directories** for multi-agent coordination:
```
specs/NNN-feature/collaboration/
├── active/          # Current work
│   ├── sessions/    # Work session logs
│   └── decisions/   # Handoffs, proposals
├── archive/         # Historical (YYYY-MM/)
└── results/         # Completed deliverables
```

**Memory guides**:
- PR Workflow Guide - How AI agents create pull requests
- Git Worktrees Protocol - Parallel development with worktrees

## Quick Start

### 1. Add kits to your spec-kit project

```bash
cd your-spec-kit-project
lite-kits add --here --dry-run --recommended  # Preview changes
lite-kits add --here --recommended            # Add project + git kits
```

**What gets added**:
- Git workflow commands (`/commit`, `/pr`, `/cleanup`)
- Project orientation command (`/orient`)
- Multi-agent coordination tools (`/sync`, collaboration structure) - optional
- Memory guides (PR workflow, git worktrees protocol) - optional

### 2. Use the commands in your AI assistant

```bash
# In Claude Code or GitHub Copilot
/orient     # Get project context
/commit     # Smart commit with staging
/pr         # Create PR with auto-push
/cleanup    # Clean up merged branches
/sync       # Check multi-agent status
```

### 3. Start building

```bash
# Standard spec-kit workflow with enhanced git commands
/specify Build a user authentication system
/plan
/tasks
/implement
/commit     # Use smart commit
/pr         # Auto-push and create PR
```

## Usage

### CLI Commands

**Beautiful Banner Experience:**
```bash
# Welcome screen with static banner + quick start
lite-kits                                    # Show banner and quick start guide

# Animated celebration banner
lite-kits --banner                           # Special animated ASCII art

# Banner integrated into all commands
lite-kits status                             # Beautiful status display
lite-kits info                               # Professional info tables
```

**Kit Management:**
```bash
# Add kits to a project (working directory by default)
lite-kits add --recommended                  # Add project + git kits
lite-kits add --kit project                  # Add specific kit
lite-kits add --dry-run --recommended        # Preview changes
lite-kits add --directory /path/to/project   # Specify different directory

# Check status with beautiful display
lite-kits status                             # Show installed kits with banner

# Validate installation
lite-kits validate                           # Verify kit installation

# Remove kits
lite-kits remove --kit git                   # Remove specific kit
lite-kits remove --all                       # Remove all kits
```

**Package Management:**
```bash
# Get package info with professional tables
lite-kits info                               # Show version, kits, quick start

# Uninstall instructions
lite-kits uninstall                          # How to remove package

# Version and global options (UV-style)
lite-kits --version / -V                     # Show version only
lite-kits --quiet / -q                       # Suppress banners
lite-kits --verbose / -v                     # Extra output
lite-kits --directory <path>                 # Set working directory
```

### Git Workflow Example

```bash
# Make changes to your code

# Smart commit with combined staging + message approval
/commit
# Shows: staging plan + commit message in one prompt
# Options: y (approve), es (edit staging), em (edit message)

# Create PR (auto-pushes branch first!)
/pr
# Checks: No existing PR, pushes branch, creates PR
# Description: Only describes commits in THIS PR (modular scope)

# Clean up merged branches
/cleanup
# Safe deletion with protection for current/base/unmerged branches
# Optional: --remote flag to delete from remote too
```

### Multi-Agent Workflow Example

**Scenario**: Claude Code (backend) + GitHub Copilot (frontend) building a blog.

1. **Claude Code**: Creates spec and plan
   ```bash
   /specify Build a blog platform with auth
   /plan
   ```

2. **Claude Code**: Creates handoff document
   ```
   specs/002-blog/collaboration/active/decisions/agent-split.md
   - Claude: Backend (API, database, auth)
   - Copilot: Frontend (React, UI, components)
   ```

3. **Both agents**: Work in parallel with git worktrees
   ```bash
   # Claude
   git worktree add ../blog-backend 002-blog

   # Copilot
   git worktree add ../blog-frontend 002-blog
   ```

4. **Both agents**: Commit with attribution
   ```bash
   /commit
   # Message includes: via claude-sonnet-4.5 @ claude-code
   ```

5. **Check sync status**:
   ```bash
   /sync
   # Shows: agent activity, collaboration status, recommendations
   ```

6. **Integration**: Test together, create PR with `/pr`

## Architecture

### Add-on Design (Not a Fork)

**lite-kits** is an **add-on** for vanilla spec-kit, not a fork or replacement:

- ✅ **Vanilla spec-kit stays vanilla** - Your `specify` workflow is unchanged
- ✅ **Get upstream updates** - Benefit from spec-kit improvements automatically
- ✅ **Modular kits** - Add/remove individual kits as needed
- ✅ **No file replacements** - Only adds new files, never modifies spec-kit core

### What Gets Added

When you run `lite-kits add`, it installs `.md` prompt files and optional scripts:

**Kit commands** (markdown prompts for AI assistants):
- `.claude/commands/*.md` - Claude Code slash commands
- `.github/prompts/*.prompt.md` - GitHub Copilot prompt files

**Memory guides** (multiagent-kit only):
- `.specify/memory/pr-workflow-guide.md` - How AI agents should create PRs
- `.specify/memory/git-worktrees-protocol.md` - Parallel dev with worktrees

**Collaboration structure** (multiagent-kit only):
- `specs/NNN-feature/collaboration/` - Session logs, handoffs, decisions

**No modifications** to existing spec-kit files like `.specify/`, vanilla prompts, etc.
