Introducing ADD — Agent Driven Development
TDD gave us tests before code. BDD gave us behavior before tests. ADD gives us coordinated agent teams before everything.
Today we're launching ADD as a free, open-source Claude Code plugin. ADD is a structured SDLC methodology designed for the reality that AI agents do the development work while humans architect, decide, and verify. It brings the same discipline to AI-native development that TDD brought to testing two decades ago.
ADD ships with 9 commands, 9 skills, 11 rules, and 13 templates — all pure markdown and JSON, zero dependencies. Install it with one command and start building in 5 minutes.
What makes ADD different: Agents aren't solo contributors — they're team members. ADD treats them as a coordinated team with roles (test-writer, implementer, reviewer, deployer), scoped permissions, independent verification, and accumulated knowledge that compounds across projects.
The maturity dial (POC → Alpha → Beta → GA) governs all process rigor with a single control. Start lightweight for prototypes, dial up to exhaustive verification for production systems. The knowledge cascade ensures agents get smarter with every project.
