Common friction
New repos often start with unclear setup, inconsistent prompts, weak onboarding, and no shared workflow rules.
Why this exists
More structure than a toolkit, less weight than a platform.
The pack is designed for builders who like the spec-driven method but also need a more practical starting point for new repositories.
What this pack adds
It turns the method into a ready-to-use starter with guided project generation, governance, and portable defaults.
Who it helps
Solo builders, teams, and agent-heavy repos that want faster starts without losing clarity or control.
Core pieces
Built to stay useful after the first scaffold.
profiles
Reusable project shapes for APIs, data work, automation, and web stacks.
add-ons
Composable bundles for databases, orchestration, and common capability layers.
workflow contract
Generated prompts, docs, and manifest files stay aligned around a repo-first source of truth.

From first prompt to repo ready.
