+
5
+ # Initialize Workflow
6
+
7
+ ## Overview
8
+ Set up technical foundation and development infrastructure by detecting if this is a greenfield (new) or brownfield (existing) project and executing the appropriate technical setup workflow.
9
+
10
+ ## Detection Logic
11
+
12
+ **Scan current directory for indicators:**
13
+ - Presence of package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, go.mod, etc.
14
+ - Existing source code directories (src/, lib/, app/, etc.)
15
+ - Git repository status
16
+ - Configuration files
17
+
18
+ **Classify as:**
19
+ - **Greenfield**: Empty directory or minimal files
20
+ - **Brownfield**: Existing codebase with established structure
21
+
22
+ ## Workflow Process
23
+
24
+ ### Step 1: Project Type Detection
25
+
26
+ **Use Windsurf tools to analyze project state:**
27
+
28
+ - Use `list_dir` to scan current directory structure
29
+ - Use `find_by_name` to search for common project files (package.json, requirements.txt, etc.)
30
+ - Use `view_file` to check existing configuration files
31
+ - Use `codebase_search` to understand existing code patterns and architecture
32
+
33
+ **Detection criteria:**
34
+ - **Greenfield indicators**: Empty/minimal directory, no dependency files, no src/ directories
35
+ - **Brownfield indicators**: Existing dependency files, established directory structure, source code present
36
+
37
+ ### Step 2A: Greenfield Workflow (New Projects)
38
+
39
+ **Phase 1: Technical Foundation Setup**
40
+
41
+ **Ask focused technical questions:**
42
+ 1. **Project Type**: "What type of application are you building? (web app, API, mobile app, library, CLI tool, etc.)"
43
+ 2. **Technical Constraints**: "Any required technologies, frameworks, or platforms?"
44
+ 3. **Development Environment**: "What's your preferred development setup? (local, containerized, cloud-based)"
45
+ 4. **Scale Requirements**: "Expected technical scale? (prototype, small team, enterprise)"
46
+
47
+ **Phase 2: Technology Recommendations**
48
+
49
+ Based on technical requirements, recommend:
50
+ - **Tech Stack**: Languages, frameworks, databases suitable for the project type
51
+ - **Architecture Pattern**: Monolith, microservices, serverless based on scale needs
52
+ - **Development Tools**: Testing frameworks, build tools, linting/formatting
53
+ - **Project Structure**: Directory layout, naming conventions, configuration
54
+
55
+ **Phase 3: Technical Foundation Setup**
56
+
57
+ **Create project structure:**
58
+ - Use `write_to_file` to create package/dependency files (package.json, requirements.txt, etc.)
59
+ - Use `write_to_file` to create Git configuration (.gitignore, .gitattributes)
60
+ - Use `write_to_file` to create development configuration (prettier, eslint, testing config)
61
+ - Use `write_to_file` to create build and deployment configuration (if applicable)
62
+
63
+ **Documentation Creation:**
64
+
65
+ 1. **`.code-captain/docs/tech-stack.md`** - Technology stack decisions and rationale
66
+ 2. **`.code-captain/docs/code-style.md`** - Coding standards and development patterns
67
+ 3. **`README.md`** - Technical overview and setup instructions
68
+
69
+ **Tech Stack Documentation Template:**

+ [Monolith/Microservices/Serverless/etc. with reasoning]
93
+ ```
94
+
95
+ **Code Style Documentation Template:**
96
+ ```markdown

+
113
+ ## Documentation Style
114
+ [Comment and documentation patterns]
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ ### Step 2B: Brownfield Workflow (Existing Projects)
118
+
119
+ **Phase 1: Codebase Analysis**
120
+
121
+ **Scan and analyze existing project:**
122
+ - Use `codebase_search` to understand overall architecture and patterns
123
+ - Use `list_dir` to analyze file structure and organization patterns
124
+ - Use `view_file` to examine dependencies and technology stack
125
+ - Use `grep_search` to find code patterns, conventions, and architecture
126
+ - Use `view_file` to review configuration files and build processes
127
+ - Use `find_by_name` to locate testing setup and development tools
128
+ - Use `codebase_search` to identify documentation gaps and technical debt
129
+
130
+ **Analysis areas:**
131
+ - **File structure** and organization patterns
132
+ - **Dependencies** and technology stack
133
+ - **Code patterns**, conventions, and architecture
134
+ - **Configuration files** and build processes
135
+ - **Testing setup** and development tools
136
+ - **Documentation gaps** and technical debt
137
+
138
+ **Phase 2: Documentation Generation**
139
+
140
+ **Create comprehensive technical documentation:**
141
+
142
+ Use `write_to_file` to create:
143
+
144
+ 1. **`.code-captain/docs/tech-stack.md`** - Current technology stack analysis
145
+ 2. **`.code-captain/docs/code-style.md`** - Observed code patterns and conventions
146
+ 3. **`.code-captain/docs/architecture.md`** - System architecture and technical decisions (if complex)
147
+
148
+ **Phase 3: Gap Analysis & Recommendations**
149
+
150
+ Identify and document:
151
+ - **Missing technical documentation**
152
+ - **Inconsistent code patterns**
153
+ - **Technical debt and improvement opportunities**
154
+ - **Testing coverage gaps**
155
+ - **Development workflow improvements**
156
+ - **Architecture optimization opportunities**
157
+
158
+ ### Step 3: Directory Structure Setup
159
+
160
+ **Ensure Code Captain structure exists:**
161
+
162
+ Use `list_dir` to check and `write_to_file` to create if missing:
163
+
164
+ ```
165
+ .code-captain/
166
+ ├── docs/
167
+ │ ├── best-practices.md # Development best practices (pre-installed)
168
+ │ ├── code-style.md # Code conventions and patterns
169
+ │ ├── tech-stack.md # Technology decisions and rationale
170
+ │ └── architecture.md # System architecture (if complex)
171
+ └── research/ # Research outputs and technical analysis
172
+ ```
173
+
174

225
+
226
+ ## Integration with Code Captain Ecosystem
227
+
228
+ **Workflow relationship:**
229
+ - **Initialize** handles ONLY technical foundation
230
+ - **/plan-product** handles product strategy and vision
231
+ - Users need both for complete project setup
232
+ - **/plan-product** should be the next step before feature development
233
+
234
+ **Cross-workflow integration:**
235
+ - Documentation created here used by `/create-spec` for understanding patterns
236
+ - Tech stack analysis used by `/execute-task` for implementation guidance
237
+ - Architecture documentation used by `/create-adr` for decision context
238
+ - Gap analysis used by `/research` for improvement priorities
239
+
240
+ ## Technical Implementation
241
+
242
+ **File creation process:**
243
+ 1. Use `write_to_file` to create all documentation files
244
+ 2. Ensure `.code-captain/docs/` directory exists
245
+ 3. Create comprehensive content in each file
246
+ 4. Verify file paths match expected locations
247
+
248
+ **Analysis process:**
249
+ - Use `codebase_search` for semantic understanding of existing code
250
+ - Use `find_by_name` for discovering project files and patterns
251
+ - Use `view_file` for examining specific configuration and code files
252
+ - Use `grep_search` for finding specific patterns and conventions
253
+
254
+ ## Quality Standards
255
+
256
+ **Documentation completeness:**
257
+ - Tech stack with versions and justifications
258
+ - Code style with observable patterns
259
+ - Architecture decisions and rationale
260
+ - Clear setup and development instructions
261
+
262
+ **Analysis thoroughness:**
263
+ - Complete technology inventory
264
+ - Consistent pattern identification
265
+ - Gap analysis with actionable recommendations
266
+ - Integration point documentation
267
+
268
+ ## Error Handling
269
+
270
+ **Common scenarios:**
271
+ - **Empty directory**: Proceed with greenfield workflow
272
+ - **Ambiguous project type**: Ask user for clarification
273
+ - **Missing permissions**: Guide user to resolve access issues
274
+ - **Complex architecture**: Break analysis into smaller components
275
+
276
+ **Fallback strategies:**
277
+ - If automated detection fails, ask user directly
278
+ - If file creation fails, provide manual instructions
279
+ - If analysis is incomplete, document known limitations
280
+ - If tools fail, provide alternative approaches
281
+
282
+ ## Windsurf Tools Used

5
+ # New Command Workflow
6
+
7
+ ## Overview
8
+ A meta workflow that creates new Code Captain workflows following established patterns and conventions. This workflow generates properly structured workflow files, updates documentation, and ensures consistency across the Code Captain ecosystem for Windsurf environments.
9
+
10
+ ## Usage Examples
11
+
12
+ ```bash
13
+ # Create a new workflow
14
+ /new-command "optimize" "Performance optimization for slow code sections"
15
+
16
+ # Create deployment workflow
17
+ /new-command "deploy" "Deploy applications to various cloud platforms"
18
+
19
+ # Create test generation workflow
20
+ /new-command "test-gen" "Generate comprehensive test suites from existing code"
21
+ ```
22
+
23
+ ## Workflow Process
24
+
25
+ ### Step 1: Command Specification Gathering
26
+
27
+ **Initial Input Processing:**
28
+ - Parse workflow name (validate format: lowercase, hyphens allowed)
29
+ - Extract brief description from user input
30
+ - Use `find_by_name` to validate workflow name doesn't conflict with existing workflows
31
+
32
+ **Interactive Specification Building:**
33
+
34
+ Ask clarifying questions to build complete workflow specification:
35
+
36
+ 1. **Workflow Category**: "Is this a [Setup/Analysis/Implementation/Integration] workflow?"
37
+ 2. **Execution Style**: "Should this use contract style (extensive clarification rounds like create-spec) or direct execution (immediate action like swab)?"
38
+ 3. **Usage Pattern**: "Does it take arguments, flags, or is it standalone?"
39
+ 4. **AI Coordination**: "Does it need AI prompts for complex decision-making?"
40
+ 5. **Output Location**: "Where should outputs be stored? (.code-captain/[folder])"
41
+ 6. **Tool Integration**: "Which Windsurf tools will it use? (codebase_search, view_file, etc.)"
42
+ 7. **Workflow Steps**: "What are the main phases/steps the workflow follows?"
43
+
44
+ ### Step 2: Workflow Structure Generation
45
+
46
+ **Generate Standard Workflow File Structure:**
47
+
48
+ Use `write_to_file` to create workflow in `.windsurf/workflows/[command-name].md`:
49
+
50
+ ```markdown

146
+ - Use `view_file` to check workflow file syntax and structure
147
+ - Use `run_command` with `wc -c` to validate under 12k character limit
148
+ - Use `find_by_name` to ensure no conflicts with existing workflows
149
+ - Run basic structure validation
150
+
151
+ **Character Limit Enforcement:**
152
+ ```bash
153
+ # Check if workflow is under 12k limit
154
+ wc -c .windsurf/workflows/[command-name].md
155
+
156
+ # Validate limit
157
+ [ $(wc -c < .windsurf/workflows/[command-name].md) -lt 12000 ] && echo "✅ Under 12k" || echo "⚠️ Over 12k"
158
+ ```
159
+

+ ## Workflow Process
218
+
219
+ ### Step 1: Context Analysis
220
+ **Analyze current state and requirements**
221
+ - [Context gathering steps]
222
+ - [Requirement analysis]
223
+
224

+ - [Action steps]
227
+ - [Tool usage]
228
+ - [Progress feedback]
229
+
230
+ ### Step 3: Verification
231
+ **Validate results and completion**
232
+ - [Verification steps]
233
+ - [Quality checks]
234
+ - [Completion confirmation]
235
+ ```
236
+
237
+ ## Command Name Validation
238
+
239
+ **Validation Rules:**
240
+ - Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens only
241
+ - No spaces or special characters
242
+ - Maximum 20 characters
243
+ - Cannot start with number or hyphen
244
+ - Must not conflict with existing workflows
245
+
246
+ **Validation Process:**
247
+ Use `grep_search` and `find_by_name` to check for conflicts:
248
+ ```bash
249
+ # Check existing workflows
250
+ find_by_name "[command-name].md" in .windsurf/workflows/
251
+
252
+ # Validate format using pattern matching
253
+ ```
254
+
255
+ ## Error Handling
256
+
257
+ **Common Issues:**
258
+ - **Duplicate workflow name**: Check existing workflows, suggest alternatives
259
+ - **Invalid workflow name format**: Provide format guidance and examples
260
+ - **Character limit exceeded**: Provide optimization suggestions
261
+ - **Template generation errors**: Validate inputs, provide clear error messages
262
+
263
+ **Error Messages:**
264
+ ```
265
+ ❌ Workflow creation failed: [specific reason]
266
+
267
+ Suggestions:
268
+ - Check workflow name format (lowercase, hyphens only)
269
+ - Ensure name doesn't conflict with existing workflows
270
+ - Verify all required inputs are provided
271
+ - Ensure generated content is under 12k characters
272
+
273
+ Try: /new-command "valid-name" "clear description"
274
+ ```
