01 / commands
Slash commands for each gate
Each of init, ticket, prosecute, distill, and maintain has its own /adlc:* command.
- /adlc:adlc-init
- /adlc:adlc-ticket
- /adlc:adlc-prosecute
- /adlc:adlc-distill
- /adlc:adlc-maintain
Claude Code integration
ADLC inside Claude Code
Phase-routing skill, slash-command gates, rails-guard and build-gate hooks, and a multi-lens prosecutor panel. Claude is the model via --prompt-only. No API keys for ADLC gates. Claude answers --prompt-only prompts in-session. Evidence stays under .adlc/.

One-line install
npx plugins add voodootikigod/adlc npm install -g @adlc/cli /adlc:adlc-init
The plugins installer auto-detects Claude Code and installs the native plugin. Prefer /adlc:adlc-init after the toolkit is on PATH. Native marketplace alternative: /plugin marketplace add voodootikigod/adlc then /plugin install adlc@adlc.

02 / hook events
Hooks on session, edit, stop, and compaction
SessionStart warns if you are not ready and re-injects the active ticket. PreToolUse enforces rails and the build-gate. PostToolUse watches churn. Stop audits evidence and risk-gated review. PreCompact/PostCompact/SubagentStart/SubagentStop re-inject ticket context so a compaction or subagent boundary never drops rail-protection awareness.

03 / MCP server
The same gate tools, over MCP
A bundled MCP server, auto-discovered at the plugin root, shells to the globally-installed adlc binary and exposes the same allowlisted gate tools the Codex integration ships.
- adlc
04 / prosecutor agents
Five lenses, then a verifier
/adlc:adlc-prosecute fans out five specialist lenses, dedupes findings, and keeps only what a sixth verifier confirms. It loops until two dry rounds.

05 / routing skill
A skill that routes by phase
The adlc skill is a phase flowchart. Describe the work and it picks a gate so you do not have to memorize twenty tools.

Phase routing
Route by skill or slash command
Ask the adlc skill what you are doing, or call a slash command directly. Evidence stays under .adlc/.
| Phase | Claude Code entry | Evidence produced |
|---|---|---|
| P0 | /adlc:adlc-ticket | schema-valid ticket · coldstart |
| P1-P2 | adlc skill | spec-lint · premortem · parallax · router |
| P3-P4 | PreToolUse hooks | rails-guard · build-gate · flail |
| P5-P6 | /adlc:adlc-prosecute | multi-lens loop · hollow-test · behavior-diff |
| P7 | /adlc:adlc-distill | foundry · rejection mining · maintain |
Frozen rails
Session deny plus CI backstop
In the session
Frozen-rail edits are denied
PreToolUse rails-guard blocks Edit/Write/MultiEdit on frozen paths. Bash is not gated in-session (a shell cannot be reliably parsed), so pair the hook with CI.
In CI
Required check on the PR
docs/ci/rails-guard.yml reads rails from the trusted base ref and rejects any PR that touches them, including shell writes the hook never saw.
