Develop - Development Phase 🛠️

Part of Double Diamond: DEVELOP (divergent thinking)

Build and implement solutions using external CLI providers.

Usage

/co:develop        # Development phase

Natural Language Examples

Just describe what you want to build:

"Build a user authentication system"
"Implement OAuth 2.0 flow"
"Create a caching layer for the API"
"Develop a real-time notification feature"

What This Phase Does

The develop phase generates multiple implementation approaches using external CLI providers:

1. 🔴 Codex CLI - Implementation-focused, code generation, technical patterns
2. 🟡 Gemini CLI - Alternative approaches, edge cases, best practices
3. 🔵 Claude (You) - Integration, refinement, and final implementation

This is the divergent phase for solutions - we explore different implementation paths before converging on the best approach.

Quality Gates

The develop phase includes automatic quality validation:

• 75% consensus threshold - Implementation must meet quality standards
• Security checks - OWASP compliance verification
• Best practices - Framework and language conventions
• Performance - Efficiency and scalability considerations

If quality gates fail, you'll be notified and can iterate.

When to Use Develop

Use develop when you need:

• Building: "Build X" or "Implement Y"
• Creating: "Create Z feature"
• Development: "Develop a feature for X"
• Code Generation: "Write code to do Y"
• Implementation: "Add functionality for Z"

Don't use develop for:

• Simple code edits (use Edit tool)
• Reading or reviewing code (use Read/review skills)
• Trivial single-file changes

Part of the Full Workflow

Develop is phase 3 of 4 in the embrace (full) workflow:

1. Discover
2. Define
3. Develop ← You are here
4. Deliver
