AID v1.0.0

v1.0.0 ·

The first public release of AID — AI Integrated Development: a methodology and toolchain for building software with AI coding agents, human-gated at every phase. This release covers the full methodology currently available, grouped by area.

Pipeline & Skills

  • Six numbered phases as slash commands: Discover (/aid-discover), Interview (/aid-interview), Specify (/aid-specify), Plan (/aid-plan), Detail (/aid-detail), Execute (/aid-execute).
  • /aid-config — bootstrap a project and manage .aid/settings.yml.
  • Optional on-demand Deliver skills (not numbered phases): /aid-deploy, /aid-monitor.
  • /aid-summarize — offline knowledge-summary.html viewer.
  • /aid-housekeep — off-pipeline Knowledge Base maintenance. (11 user-facing skills in total.)

Knowledge Base

  • 14 standard Knowledge Base document types populated by Discover, with RAG-by-convention navigation.
  • Per-project configurable doc-set (discovery.doc_set).
  • Self-contained offline KB summary (Mermaid inlined, light/dark, WCAG AA).

Agent Model

  • 9 specialized agents across three tiers (large / medium / small).
  • Structural separation of duties — the reviewer's tier is always ≥ the executor's, and the agent that writes code never grades its own work.

Lite Path & Recipes

  • Description-first TRIAGE auto-routes small work to the lite path (skips Specify, Plan, and Detail).
  • 51 recipes (add- / change- / fix- families) with {{slot}} substitution.
  • Sub-paths LITE-BUG-FIX / LITE-REFACTOR / LITE-FEATURE, with mid-flight escalation to the full path.

Quality, Review & Feedback

  • Two-tier review: a per-task quick-check plus a per-delivery graded review/fix loop (A+ → F, deterministic grade).
  • Configurable minimum grade (global, with per-skill overrides).
  • 11 formal feedback loops for upstream revision (Q&A entries, IMPEDIMENT.md, MONITOR-STATE findings).

Execution Engine

  • 8 task types: RESEARCH, DESIGN, IMPLEMENT, TEST, DOCUMENT, MIGRATE, REFACTOR, CONFIGURE.
  • Parallel pool dispatch with configurable capacity (execution.max_parallel_tasks).
  • Branch-per-delivery isolation (aid/{work}-delivery-NNN).
  • Always-on traceability (L1 state markers, L2 ETA brackets, L3 heartbeat files).

Installation & Host-Tool Support

  • Persistent global aid CLI: add / status / update / remove / version.
  • Four install channels: curl/irm script, npm, PyPI, and offline bundle.
  • Five host tools: Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot CLI, and Antigravity (byte-identical skill/agent bodies).
  • Protect-on-diff for root agent files, an invariant root AGENTS.md, and a tag-triggered release pipeline.

Documentation & Examples

  • The methodology guide, FAQ, glossary, repository map, and install/release runbooks.
  • This documentation site.
  • Worked examples: greenfield, brownfield full-path, and brownfield lite-path.
