AI SDLC Scaffold, repo template for AI-assisted software development
I built an open-source repo template that brings structure to AI-assisted software development, starting from the pre-coding phases: objectives, user stories, requirements, architecture decisions. It's designed around Claude Code but the ideas are tool-agnostic. I've been a computer science researcher and full-stack software engineer for 25 years, working mainly in startups. I've been using this approach on my personal projects for a while, then, when I decided to package it up as scaffold for more easy reuse, I figured it might be useful to others too. I published it under Apache 2.0, fork…

In plain words
AI SDLC Scaffold is an open-source repository template that organizes AI-assisted software development by establishing structure before coding begins. It guides users through defining objectives, user stories, requirements, and architecture decisions, working with AI coding tools like Claude Code. The template is tool-agnostic and designed for developers who want to provide AI agents with clear context about project goals and constraints, rather than jumping directly to implementation. It is available under Apache 2.0 license.

Traycer AI2025 · traycer.ai · ▲190Hey everyone! We've built Traycer, a tool that transforms your GitHub issues—everything from descriptions and attached images to ongoing conversations—into clear, actionable implementation plans. You can easily import these plans into your IDE with our extension or use them with any other coding assistant you prefer. We'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Traycer is totally free for open-source projects, and we've got a 2-week free trial if you're working with private repos. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
Scaffolder, CLI tool to generate project structure, taken from YAML2023 · github.com · ▲30Scaffolder is a CLI tool written in Golang to instantly generate skeleton project structure with boilerplate code, that's taken from configurable YAML file, to quickly kick-start your project I was tired of manually creating the project structure, with all those folder, files... So I decided to create a CLI tool that allows you to instantly generate skeleton projects, based on a reusable YAML file with boilerplate code if specified. YAML is very easy for both humans and programs to work with and parse, hence why it's the most logical choice in context of Scaffolder. Check out the GitHub page…
Sx – an open-source package manager for AI skills, MCPs, and commandsMay 2026 · github.com · ▲50Claude Code is amazing for individuals but terrible for teams. I spent the last six months building my perfect mix of MCP servers, subagents, commands and skills. Claude Code writes 100% of the code now, but sharing this with my team? Painful. 1. Blog posts and workshops don't work (and don't scale) 2. Committing tools to N repos means N PRs. A tool changes? N more PRs. 3. Same tools, different files or folders for each AI assistant; not everyone uses Claude Code It is like 1999 all over again; FTPing files up to prod and versioning with ".bak" suffixes. So I built sx. It is your team's…
- IBI built a wizard to turn ideas into AI coding agent-ready specsNov 2025 · vibescaffold.dev · ▲71
I created vibescaffold.dev. It is a wizard-style AI tool that will guide you from idea → vision → tech spec → implementation plan. It will generate all the documents necessary for AI coding agents to understand & iteratively execute on your vision. How it works: - Step 1: Define your product vision and MVP - Step 2: AI helps create technical architecture and data models - Step 3: Generate a staged development plan - Step 4: Create an AGENTS.md for automated workflows I've used AI coding tools for awhile. Before this workflow (and now, this tool), I kept getting "close but not quite" results…
