A plugin for Zest Dev's spec-driven development workflow.

This plugin integrates the Zest Dev methodology into command- and prompt-driven editors, providing a structured workflow for managing software specifications through sequential development phases.

• the Zest Dev skill is the canonical workflow source
• detailed phase workflows live under the Zest Dev skill
• commands in plugin/commands/ are thin entrypoints and compatibility shims
• the zest-dev CLI manages spec lifecycle and prompt generation

• Spec creation - Create new specs from natural language descriptions
• Phase management - Guide specs through research → design → implementation phases
• Active change spec context - All commands work with the active change spec
• CLI integration - Seamlessly integrates with the zest-dev CLI tool

All command flows keep responding in the user's language unless the user asks to switch languages.

• Zest Dev - Canonical workflow source for the New / Research / Design / Implement phases

• zest-dev CLI tool must be installed and available in PATH
• Project must be initialized with specs/ directory

# Initialize deployed OpenCode commands and skills in the current project
zest-dev init

# Or point an editor/runtime at this plugin source during development
cc --plugin-dir /path/to/zest-dev/plugin

Start from a description and work through each phase:

1. /zest-dev:new <description> — thin entry into the New phase
2. /zest-dev:research — thin entry into the Research phase
3. /zest-dev:design — thin entry into the Design phase
4. /zest-dev:implement — thin entry into the Implement phase
5. /zest-dev:archive — merge into specs/current/ and unset active change spec

Code first, then document what was built:

1. Write code freely
2. /zest-dev:summarize-chat or /zest-dev:summarize-pr — capture into a spec

Chat and brainstorm first, then formalize and proceed:

1. Have a free-form discussion about the feature
2. /zest-dev:draft — crystallize discussion into a spec with overview
3. Optionally continue with /zest-dev:research, /zest-dev:design, /zest-dev:implement

zest-dev prompt <command> generates prompt text from the thin command files. It supports the real command set in plugin/commands/, plus a compatibility alias from summarize to summarize-chat.
