plugin: conductor updated: 2026-01-20 # Conductor Help Conductor implements Context-Driven Development for Claude Code. ## Philosophy **Context as a Managed Artifact:** Your project context (goals, tech stack, workflow) is documented and maintained alongside your code. This context guides all development work. **Pre-Implementation Planning:** Before coding, create a spec (WHAT) and plan (HOW). This ensures clear direction and traceable progress. **Safe Iteration:** Human approval gates at key points. Git-linked commits for traceability. Easy rollback when needed. ## Available Skills ### conductor:setup Initialize Conductor for your project. - Creates conductor/ directory structure - Generates product.md, tech-stack.md, workflow.md - Interactive Q&A with resume capability ### conductor:new-track Create a new development track. - Generates spec.md with requirements - Creates hierarchical plan.md (phases -> tasks) - Updates tracks.md index ### conductor:implement Execute tasks from your plan. - Status progression: [ ] -> [~] -> [x] - Git commits linked to track/task - Follows workflow.md procedures ### conductor:status View project progress. - Overall completion percentage - Current task and blockers - Multi-track overview ### conductor:revert Git-aware logical undo. - Revert at Track, Phase, or Task level - Preview before executing - State validation after revert ## Quick Start 1. **Initialize:** Run `conductor:setup` to create context files 2. **Plan:** Run `conductor:new-track` to create your first track 3. **Implement:** Run `conductor:implement` to start working 4. **Check:** Run `conductor:status` to see progress 5. **Undo:** Run `conductor:revert` if you need to roll back ## Directory Structure ``` conductor/ ├── product.md # Project vision and goals ├── tech-stack.md # Technical preferences ├── workflow.md # Development procedures ├── tracks.md # Index of all tracks └── tracks/ └── {track_id}/ ├── spec.md # Requirements specification ├── plan.md # Hierarchical task plan └── metadata.json ``` ## Best Practices 1. **Keep Context Updated:** Review product.md and tech-stack.md periodically 2. **One Task at a Time:** Focus on completing tasks fully before moving on 3. **Commit Often:** Each task should result in at least one commit 4. **Use Blockers:** Mark tasks as [!] blocked rather than skipping silently 5. **Review Before Proceeding:** Use phase gates to verify quality ## Troubleshooting **"Conductor not initialized"** Run `conductor:setup` to initialize the conductor/ directory. **"Track not found"** Check tracks.md for available tracks. Track IDs are case-sensitive. **"Revert failed"** Check for uncommitted changes. Commit or stash before reverting. ## Getting Help Use `conductor:help` anytime for this reference.
