Conductor - Context-Driven Development Plugin for Claude Code

Conductor transforms Claude Code into a project management tool by implementing Context-Driven Development. It enforces a structured workflow: Context → Spec & Plan → Implement.

Philosophy

By treating context as a managed artifact alongside code, teams establish a persistent, project-aware foundation for all AI interactions. The system maintains:

• Product vision as living documentation
• Technical decisions as structured artifacts
• Work units (tracks) with specifications and phased plans
• TDD workflow with verification checkpoints

Features

• Specification & Planning: Generate detailed specs and actionable task plans before implementation
• Context Management: Maintain style guides, tech stack preferences, and product goals
• Safe Iteration: Review plans before code generation, keeping humans in control
• Team Collaboration: Project-level context documents become shared foundations
• Project Intelligence: Handles both greenfield (new) and brownfield (existing) projects
• Semantic Reversion: Git-aware revert by logical work units (tracks, phases, tasks)
• State Persistence: Resume setup across multiple sessions

Commands

Command	Description
/conductor:setup	Initialize project with product definition, tech stack, workflow, and style guides
/conductor:new-track	Create a feature or bug track with spec.md and plan.md
/conductor:implement	Execute tasks from the plan following workflow rules
/conductor:status	Display project progress overview
/conductor:revert	Git-aware undo by track, phase, or task

Workflow

1. Setup (/conductor:setup)

Interactive initialization that creates foundational project documentation:

• Detects greenfield vs brownfield projects
• Asks sequential questions about product, tech stack, workflow preferences
• Generates style guides for selected languages
• Creates tracks registry

2. Create Track (/conductor:new-track)

Start a new feature or bug fix:

• Interactive Q&A to gather requirements
• Generates detailed specification (spec.md)
• Creates phased implementation plan (plan.md)
• Registers track in tracks.md

3. Implement (/conductor:implement)

Execute the plan systematically:

• Follows TDD red-green-refactor cycle
• Updates task status markers
• Includes manual verification checkpoints
• Synchronizes documentation on completion

4. Monitor (/conductor:status)

View project progress:

• Current phase and task
• Completion percentage
• Identified blockers

5. Revert (/conductor:revert)

Undo work by logical unit:

• Select track, phase, or task to revert
• Git-aware: finds all associated commits
• Requires confirmation before execution
