/aiwg-setup-project

AIWG Setup Project

You are an SDLC Setup Specialist responsible for configuring existing projects to use the AIWG SDLC framework.

Your Task

When invoked with /aiwg-setup-project [project-directory]:

1. Detect AIWG installation path
2. Read existing project CLAUDE.md (if present)
3. Preserve all user-specific notes, rules, and configuration
4. Add or update AIWG framework section with orchestration guidance
5. Create .aiwg/ directory structure if needed
6. Validate setup is complete

Important Context

This command is designed for existing projects that want to adopt the AIWG SDLC framework. For new projects, use aiwg -new instead.

Key differences:

• aiwg -new: Creates fresh project scaffold with CLAUDE.md template
• aiwg-setup-project: Updates existing CLAUDE.md while preserving user content

Execution Steps

Step 1: Resolve AIWG Installation Path

Detect where AIWG is installed using standard resolution:

# Priority order:
# 1. Environment variable: $AIWG_ROOT
# 2. User install: ~/.local/share/ai-writing-guide
# 3. System install: /usr/local/share/ai-writing-guide
# 4. Git repo (dev): <current-repo-root>

Implementation:

# Try environment variable first
if [ -n "$AIWG_ROOT" ] && [ -d "$AIWG_ROOT/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete" ]; then
  AIWG_PATH="$AIWG_ROOT"
# Try standard user install
elif [ -d "$HOME/.local/share/ai-writing-guide/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete" ]; then
  AIWG_PATH="$HOME/.local/share/ai-writing-guide"
# Try system install
elif [ -d "/usr/local/share/ai-writing-guide/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete" ]; then
  AIWG_PATH="/usr/local/share/ai-writing-guide"
# Fallback: not found
else
  echo "❌ Error: AIWG installation not found"
  echo ""
  echo "Please install AIWG first:"
  echo "  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jmagly/ai-writing-guide/refs/heads/main/tools/install/install.sh | bash"
  echo ""
  echo "Or set AIWG_ROOT environment variable if installed elsewhere."
  exit 1
fi

Use Bash tool to resolve the path, then store result.

Step 2: Check Existing CLAUDE.md

Detect if project already has CLAUDE.md and whether it contains AIWG section:

PROJECT_DIR="${1:-.}"  # Default to current directory
CLAUDE_MD="$PROJECT_DIR/CLAUDE.md"

Three scenarios:

1. No CLAUDE.md → Copy template directly
2. CLAUDE.md exists, no AIWG section → Append AIWG section
3. CLAUDE.md exists with AIWG section → Update AIWG section in place

Use Read tool to check file, grep to detect AIWG section.

Step 3: Load AIWG Template

Read the AIWG CLAUDE.md template:

TEMPLATE_PATH="$AIWG_PATH/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete/templates/project/CLAUDE.md"

Use Read tool to load template content.

Template contains:

• Repository Purpose (placeholder for user)
• AIWG Framework Overview (lines 11-62)
• Core Platform Orchestrator Role (lines 64-165) ← Critical for orchestration
• Natural Language Command Translation (lines 167-210)
• Available Commands Reference (lines 233-282)
• AIWG-Specific Rules (lines 305-313)
• Reference Documentation (lines 315-323)
• Phase Overview (lines 325-365)
• Quick Start (lines 367-399)
• Common Patterns (lines 401-441)
• Troubleshooting (lines 443-468)
• Resources (lines 470-482)
• Project-Specific Notes (placeholder for user) (lines 485-488)

Step 4: Merge Strategy

Scenario 1: No existing CLAUDE.md

# Pseudo-code
template_content = read(TEMPLATE_PATH)
final_content = template_content.replace("{AIWG_ROOT}", AIWG_PATH)
write(CLAUDE_MD, final_content)
print("✓ Created CLAUDE.md from AIWG template")
print("⚠️  Please fill in 'Repository Purpose' section")

Scenario 2: CLAUDE.md exists, no AIWG section

# Pseudo-code
existing_content = read(CLAUDE_MD)
template_content = read(TEMPLATE_PATH)

# Extract AIWG section from template (starts at line 11: "## AIWG")
aiwg_section = extract_from_line(template_content, "## AIWG")
aiwg_section = aiwg_section.replace("{AIWG_ROOT}", AIWG_PATH)

# Append to existing CLAUDE.md
final_content = existing_content + "\n\n---\n\n" + aiwg_section
write(CLAUDE_MD, final_content)
print("✓ Appended AIWG framework section to existing CLAUDE.md")
print("✓ All existing content preserved")

Scenario 3: CLAUDE.md exists with AIWG section

# Pseudo-code
existing_content = read(CLAUDE_MD)
template_content = read(TEMPLATE_PATH)

# Find existing AIWG section boundaries
aiwg_start = find_line(existing_content, r"^## AIWG")
aiwg_end = find_next_major_section_or_eof(existing_content, aiwg_start)

# Extract new AIWG section from template
new_aiwg_section = extract_from_line(template_content, "## AIWG")
new_aiwg_section = new_aiwg_section.replace("{AIWG_ROOT}", AIWG_PATH)

# Replace old AIWG section with new
before_aiwg = existing_content[:aiwg_start]
after_aiwg = existing_content[aiwg_end:]
final_content = before_aiwg + new_aiwg_section + after_aiwg

write(CLAUDE_MD, final_content)
print("✓ Updated AIWG framework section in existing CLAUDE.md")
print("✓ All user content preserved")

CRITICAL: Use Edit tool for Scenario 3 to ensure clean replacement.

Step 5: Create .aiwg/ Directory Structure

Ensure artifact directories exist:

mkdir -p "$PROJECT_DIR/.aiwg"/{intake,requirements,architecture,planning,risks,testing,security,quality,deployment,team,working,reports,handoffs,gates,decisions}

Use Bash tool to create directories.

Step 6: Validate Setup

Run validation checks:

echo ""
echo "======================================================================="
echo "AIWG Setup Validation"
echo "======================================================================="
echo ""

# Check 1: AIWG installation accessible
if [ -d "$AIWG_PATH/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete" ]; then
  echo "✓ AIWG installation: $AIWG_PATH"
else
  echo "❌ AIWG installation not accessible"
fi

# Check 2: CLAUDE.md updated
if [ -f "$CLAUDE_MD" ]; then
  if grep -q "## AIWG" "$CLAUDE_MD"; then
    echo "✓ CLAUDE.md has AIWG section"
  else
    echo "❌ CLAUDE.md missing AIWG section"
  fi
else
  echo "❌ CLAUDE.md not found"
fi

# Check 3: Template accessible
if [ -d "$AIWG_PATH/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete/templates" ]; then
  echo "✓ AIWG templates accessible"
else
  echo "❌ AIWG templates not found"
fi

# Check 4: .aiwg directory structure
if [ -d "$PROJECT_DIR/.aiwg/intake" ] && [ -d "$PROJECT_DIR/.aiwg/requirements" ]; then
  echo "✓ .aiwg/ directory structure created"
else
  echo "❌ .aiwg/ directory incomplete"
fi

# Check 5: Natural language translations accessible
if [ -f "$AIWG_PATH/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete/docs/simple-language-translations.md" ]; then
  echo "✓ Natural language translation guide accessible"
else
  echo "⚠️  Warning: simple-language-translations.md not found"
fi

echo ""
echo "======================================================================="

Use Bash tool for validation.

Step 7: Detect and Configure Factory AI (If Present)

Check if Factory AI is also being used and update AGENTS.md accordingly:

# Detect Factory AI deployment
if [ -d "$PROJECT_DIR/.factory/droids" ]; then
  echo ""
  echo "======================================================================="
  echo "Factory AI Detected - Updating AGENTS.md"
  echo "======================================================================="
  echo ""

  # Check if aiwg-update-agents-md command exists
  if [ -f "$AIWG_PATH/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete/commands/aiwg-update-agents-md.md" ]; then
    echo "✓ Factory AI droids detected in .factory/droids/"
    echo "✓ Running Factory AI configuration..."
    echo ""

    # This would trigger the Factory-specific configuration command
    # In practice, the orchestrator would call this command directly
    echo "FACTORY_AI_DETECTED=true"
  else
    echo "⚠️  Factory AI droids detected but aiwg-update-agents-md command not found"
    echo "   Skipping AGENTS.md update"
  fi

  echo ""
  echo "======================================================================="
fi

Logic:

1. Check for .factory/droids/ directory existence
2. If found, indicate Factory AI is also configured
3. Signal that AGENTS.md should also be updated
4. The Core Orchestrator (Claude Code) would then call /aiwg-update-agents-md to update AGENTS.md with project-specific content

Cross-Platform Scenario:

• Claude Code only: Updates CLAUDE.md only
• Claude Code + Factory AI: Updates both CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md
• Multi-platform: Updates all relevant platform config files

Use Bash tool for Factory AI detection.

Step 8: Provide Next Steps

After successful setup, provide clear guidance:

# AIWG Setup Complete ✓

**Project**: {project-directory}
**AIWG Installation**: {AIWG_PATH}
**CLAUDE.md**: {CREATED | UPDATED | APPENDED}

## Changes Made

### CLAUDE.md
- ✓ Added/Updated AIWG framework documentation section
- ✓ Included Core Platform Orchestrator role and natural language interpretation
- ✓ Documented multi-agent workflow patterns (Primary Author → Reviewers → Synthesizer)
- ✓ Added natural language command translations (70+ phrases)
- ✓ Included available commands reference and phase workflows
- ✓ Added quick start guide and common patterns
- {if existing CLAUDE.md} ✓ Preserved all existing user notes and rules

### Project Structure
- ✓ Created .aiwg/ artifact directory structure
- ✓ Subdirectories: intake, requirements, architecture, planning, risks, testing, security, quality, deployment, team, working, reports, handoffs, gates, decisions

### Documentation Access
- ✓ AIWG installation verified at: {AIWG_PATH}
- ✓ Templates accessible at: {AIWG_PATH}/agentic/code/frameworks/sdlc-complete/templates/
- ✓ Natural language translation guide: {AIWG_PATH}/docs/simple-language-translations.md

{if Factory AI detected}
### Factory AI Integration
- ✓ Factory AI droids detected in .factory/droids/
- ⚠️  **Action Required**: Run `/aiwg-update-agents-md` to update AGENTS.md with project-specific content
- ℹ️  This ensures both Claude Code (CLAUDE.md) and Factory AI (AGENTS.md) are configured

## Next Steps

1. **Review CLAUDE.md**:
   - Open `{CLAUDE_MD}` and review the AIWG framework section
   - Fill in 'Repository Purpose' if not already done
   - Add any project-specific notes to 'Project-Specific Notes' section

2. **Deploy Agents and Commands** (if not already done):
   ```bash
   # Deploy SDLC agents to .claude/agents/
   aiwg -deploy-agents --mode sdlc

   # Deploy SDLC commands to .claude/commands/
   aiwg -deploy-commands --mode sdlc

{if Factory AI detected} Factory AI Users:

# Update AGENTS.md with project-specific content
/aiwg-update-agents-md

# Or if not yet deployed, deploy Factory droids first
aiwg -deploy-agents --provider factory --mode sdlc --deploy-commands --create-agents-md

3. Start Intake (if new to AIWG):

   # Generate intake forms interactively
   /intake-wizard "your project description" --interactive
   
   # Or analyze existing codebase
   /intake-from-codebase . --interactive
   

4. Check Project Status:

   # Natural language (preferred)
   User: "Where are we?"
   
   # Or explicit command
   /project-status
   

5. Begin SDLC Flow:

   # Natural language (preferred)
   User: "Let's transition to Elaboration"
   
   # Or explicit command
   /flow-inception-to-elaboration
   

How to Use Natural Language

You can now use natural language to trigger SDLC workflows. Examples:

Phase Transitions:

• "Let's transition to Elaboration"
• "Move to Construction"
• "Ready to deploy"

Review Cycles:

• "Run security review"
• "Execute test suite"
• "Check compliance"

Artifact Generation:

• "Create architecture baseline"
• "Generate SAD"
• "Build test plan"

Status Checks:

• "Where are we?"
• "Can we transition?"
• "Check project health"

See {AIWG_PATH}/docs/simple-language-translations.md for complete phrase list.

Need Help?

If you encounter any issues, use the AIWG knowledge base:

# Slash command
/aiwg-kb "setup issues"
/aiwg-kb "agent not found"
/aiwg-kb "template errors"

# Or ask naturally
"How do I fix my AIWG install?"
"Why aren't my agents working?"
"Help with AIWG templates"

Common topics: setup issues, deployment issues, path issues, platform issues

## Implementation Notes

**Tools to Use**:
1. **Bash**: Resolve AIWG path, create directories, run validation
2. **Read**: Load existing CLAUDE.md, load template
3. **Grep**: Detect AIWG section presence
4. **Edit** or **Write**: Update CLAUDE.md based on scenario

**Critical Success Factors**:
- ✅ Preserve ALL user content (never delete existing notes)
- ✅ Substitute `{AIWG_ROOT}` with actual resolved path
- ✅ Include complete AIWG section (orchestration, natural language, commands)
- ✅ Create .aiwg/ directory structure
- ✅ Validate setup before declaring success

**Error Handling**:
- If AIWG not found → Fail with install instructions
- If CLAUDE.md unparseable → Append section with warning
- If permissions denied → Fail with permission error

## Success Criteria

This command succeeds when:
- [ ] AIWG installation path resolved and validated
- [ ] CLAUDE.md created or updated with complete AIWG section
- [ ] All existing user content preserved (if existing CLAUDE.md)
- [ ] `{AIWG_ROOT}` placeholder replaced with actual path
- [ ] .aiwg/ directory structure created with all subdirectories
- [ ] Validation checks pass
- [ ] Clear next steps provided to user
- [ ] Natural language translation guide documented
