Compound Engineering

A plugin marketplace featuring the Compound Engineering plugin — AI skills and agents that make each unit of engineering work easier than the last.

Philosophy

Each unit of engineering work should make subsequent units easier—not harder.

Traditional development accumulates technical debt. Every feature adds complexity. The codebase becomes harder to work with over time.

Compound engineering inverts this. 80% is in planning and review, 20% is in execution:

• Plan thoroughly before writing code
• Review to catch issues and capture learnings
• Codify knowledge so it's reusable
• Keep quality high so future changes are easy

Workflow

Brainstorm -> Plan -> Work -> Review -> Compound -> Repeat
    ^
  Ideate (optional -- when you need ideas)

Command	Purpose
/ce:ideate	Discover high-impact project improvements through divergent ideation and adversarial filtering
/ce:brainstorm	Explore requirements and approaches before planning
/ce:plan	Turn feature ideas into detailed implementation plans
/ce:work	Execute plans with worktrees and task tracking
/ce:review	Multi-agent code review before merging
/ce:compound	Document learnings to make future work easier

/ce:brainstorm is the main entry point -- it refines ideas into a requirements plan through interactive Q&A, and short-circuits automatically when ceremony isn't needed. /ce:plan takes either a requirements doc from brainstorming or a detailed idea and distills it into a technical plan that agents (or humans) can work from.

/ce:ideate is used less often but can be a force multiplier -- it proactively surfaces strong improvement ideas based on your codebase, with optional steering from you.

Each cycle compounds: brainstorms sharpen plans, plans inform future plans, reviews catch more issues, patterns get documented.
