🚀 Quick Start

# Run VERSATIL MCP Server (Recommended)
npx --yes --package=github:Nissimmiracles/versatil-sdlc-framework versatil-mcp

# This installs in seconds and enables 59 AI tools in Claude Desktop + Cursor IDE

# Your first command in Cursor
/plan "Add user authentication"

# VERSATIL will:
# ✅ Search 1,247 similar patterns in RAG memory
# ✅ Generate plan matching YOUR coding style
# ✅ Create todos with 88% accurate time estimates

🎯 What is VERSATIL?

VERSATIL gives you 13 specialized AI agents that learn YOUR coding style and work like a senior dev team:

graph LR
    A[You: Add Auth] --> B[Alex-BA<br/>Requirements]
    B --> C[Sarah-PM<br/>Coordination]
    C --> D[Dana<br/>Database]
    C --> E[Marcus<br/>Backend]
    C --> F[James<br/>Frontend]
    D --> G[Maria-QA<br/>Testing]
    E --> G
    F --> G
    G --> H[✅ Production<br/>125 min]

Key Benefits:

• 🎯 Learns YOUR style - Auto-detects from git history in 15 seconds
• ⚡ 36% faster - Parallel execution + proven patterns
• 🧠 Zero context loss - 98%+ retention via RAG memory
• 🚀 Compounding - Each feature makes the next 40% faster
• 🔒 Privacy first - Public + Private RAG architecture

What's New in v7.16+:

• ✨ Wave 4 Coordination - Parallel multi-agent execution with collision detection
• 🔧 pnpm Migration - 945+ references updated, faster installs
• 🧪 Test Remediation - Automated fixing for 861 failing tests
• 📊 44+ Skills - Comprehensive skill library for specialized tasks
• 🛡️ Enhanced Guardian - Proactive monitoring and auto-remediation

✨ Key Features

1. 🎭 Context-Aware Code Generation

Automatically matches YOUR coding style:

Result: 96% code accuracy (vs 75% generic AI) • 88% less rework

→ See Context System Details

2. 🔄 Compounding Engineering

Each feature teaches the framework, making the next feature 40% faster:

How it works:

1. /plan searches RAG for similar features (27h ± 4h vs ±50% without history)
2. Auto-matches to proven templates (auth, CRUD, dashboard, API, upload)
3. /learn stores patterns for next time

→ See Compounding Engineering Guide

3. 🤖 13 Specialized Agents (OPERA)

7 Core Development Agents:

6 Infrastructure Agents:

→ See All Agents

4. 🧠 RAG Memory System

Zero Context Loss (98%+ retention):

• Public RAG: 1,247 framework patterns (React, JWT, testing)
• Private RAG: YOUR proprietary patterns (100% isolated)
• Pattern Search: GraphRAG + Vector store (offline first)
• Auto-Learning: Codifies patterns at session end

Privacy Guarantee: Your patterns never leave your storage (Firestore/Supabase/Local).

→ See RAG Architecture

5. 🌊 Wave 4 Coordination Patterns

Parallel Multi-Agent Execution with intelligent conflict resolution:

/work "Add authentication feature"

# VERSATIL automatically:
# ✅ Parallel execution: Dana (DB) + Marcus (API) + James (UI)
# ✅ Collision detection: Prevents agent conflicts
# ✅ Checkpoint system: Resume from last successful state
# ✅ Resource locking: Ensures data consistency

Key Features:

• Wave Execution: Group related tasks into coordinated waves
• Dependency Resolution: Automatic detection and ordering
• Conflict Prevention: Agent collision detection and avoidance
• State Management: Checkpoint-based recovery system

Result: 2-3x faster development through parallel coordination.

→ See Wave 4 Architecture

6. 🛡️ Guardian Auto-Monitoring

Automatic TODO creation for detected issues:

# Guardian runs every 5 minutes
# Detects: Build failures, low coverage, TypeScript errors
# Creates: todos/guardian-combined-maria-qa-critical-*.md

/work todos/guardian-combined-maria-qa-critical-*.md

Result: Issues automatically tracked and assigned to specialized agents.

📦 Installation

Option 1: npx (Recommended for MCP)

# Quick start - no installation needed
npx --yes --package=github:Nissimmiracles/versatil-sdlc-framework versatil-mcp

# Add to Claude Desktop config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "versatil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "--yes",
        "--package=github:Nissimmiracles/versatil-sdlc-framework",
        "versatil-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Benefits: ⚡ 2-3 min first run • ✅ Always latest • 🔒 No global pollution

Option 2: Clone for Development

# For framework development or customization
git clone https://github.com/Nissimmiracles/versatil-sdlc-framework.git
cd versatil-sdlc-framework
pnpm install
pnpm run build

🎬 Usage Examples

Plan a Feature

/plan "Add user authentication with OAuth2"

# VERSATIL searches RAG → finds 3 similar features
# Creates 6 todos with accurate estimates (29h ± 3h)
# Provides code examples from past implementations

Execute Work

/work todos/008-pending-p1-auth-api.md

# VERSATIL:
# ✅ Loads YOUR coding conventions
# ✅ Applies TEAM standards (Zod, GDPR)
# ✅ Uses PROJECT-specific configs
# ✅ Generates tests (80%+ coverage)

Learn & Improve

/learn "Completed OAuth2 in 26h - Google needs CORS config"

# VERSATIL stores pattern in RAG
# Next OAuth2 feature will:
# ✅ Remember CORS requirement
# ✅ Estimate 40% faster (15.6h)
